WARNING: Only skilled persons having the relevant education or experience in the
various energies and energy magnitudes used in this equipment, or persons who are
instructed or supervised by such skilled persons, should operate, install, or handle the
VSS2249RQ Storage Server, the VSSEP1EC Server Module, or any of the system
components.
WARNING: This product is designed to be installed in a Restricted Access area
accessible only to skilled persons and instructed persons with the proper authorization.
WARNING: This equipment is not suitable for use in locations where children are likely to
be present.
WARNING: Each storage subsystem must have a good electrical ground connection
through each power cord, power distribution unit (PDU), and the building power grid to
the point of origin, at the building's power source.
WARNING: There is no power switch on this unit. Once a power cord is connected to an
active PDU, the system starts. Two power cords must be unplugged from the PDU
receptacle to properly shut down the chassis.
WARNING: While some factory-approved maintenance on FRUs (e.g. hot-swapping a
power supply, drive, or server module) does not require the user to disconnect power to
the system, performing other types of maintenance on systems connected to an electrical
power supply may result in serious injury or death. Only individuals with knowledge and
training in working with devices containing live circuits should operate the system. Take
precautions when performing all other types of maintenance. Disconnect 2 power
supply cords before servicing.
WARNING: The server module contains a lithium battery. There is a risk of explosion if
the battery is replaced with an incorrect battery type. Dispose of used batteries according
to the vendor's instructions and in accordance with local environmental regulations.
WARNING: Do not connect or disconnect any device cables during an electrical storm.
ESD-SENSITIVE DEVICE: Only install the device on a properly grounded electrostatic
discharge (ESD) protection surface to avoid damage to the components. Always use a
properly grounded ESD wrist strap or mat during operation or installation of the device, or
when connecting the cables.
HEAVY OBJECT: This system weighs approximately 25.5 kilograms (56.2 pounds)
when all 24 drives, two PSUs, and two server modules are installed. To prevent injury
and property damage, always obtain assistance when installing the system, and when
inserting the system into or removing it from the rack.
WARNING: Install the server module in the correct orientation. Ensure the connector pins
in the storage enclosure are straight and ready to align into the connector holes in the
server module. Never force the module into the enclosure. If a pin or data connector is
damaged, return the system for service. Do NOT attempt to straighten pins as this can
cause further damage to the storage enclosure.
