Electrical Safety
The static discharged by human bodies can damage static-sensitive components on the boards.
When installing and maintaining the equipment, observe appropriate electrostatic safety precautions
to prevent personnel injuries or device damage.
When operating a device in an electrostatic sensitive area, you must take electrostatic-discharge
(ESD)-preventive measures. These include wearing ESD-preventive gloves, an ESD-preventive wrist
strap, and ESD-preventive clothes to avoid personnel injury or device damage.
To prevent damage to the device, pay attention to the following during operations:
•
Do not touch devices with bare hands because ESD from the human body may damage the
electrostatically sensitive elements on a board.
•
When dealing with the server or any of the internal components, wear an ESD-preventive wrist
strap, ESD-preventive gloves, and ESD-preventive suit.
About replacing the 2U12 Storage Shelf rails
This document describes how to replace the rails that hold the 2U12 Storage Shelf in the rack.
You must remove the storage shelf from the rack to replace the rails. Before the storage shelf can
be removed from the rack, all running programs on the connected appliance must be stopped, and
the appliance and the storage shelf shut down. If there are other connected storage shelves, they
must be turned off as well.
