Recommended tools When replacing certain components, such as the power on/off module, the following tools may be necessary: Torx T-10 and Torx T-15 screwdrivers • Phillips screwdriver • Warnings and precautions Electrostatic discharge information To prevent damage to the system, be aware of the precautions you need to follow when setting up the system or handling parts.
Equipment symbols These symbols may be located on equipment in areas where hazardous conditions may exist. WARNING! Any enclosed surface or area of the equipment marked with these symbols indicates the presence of electrical shock hazards. Enclosed area contains no operator serviceable parts. To reduce the risk of injury from electrical shock hazards, do not open this enclosure.
WARNING! Verify that the AC power supply branch circuit that provides power to the rack is not overloaded. Overloading AC power to the rack power supply circuit increases the risk of personal injury, fire, or damage to the equipment. The total rack load should not exceed 80 percent of the branch circuit rating. Consult the electrical authority having jurisdiction over your facility wiring and installation requirements.

Updating firmware After installing hardware and powering up the enclosure, be sure to verify that the host controller, the enclosure, and hard drives have the latest firmware. You can identify which firmware versions you have for the host controller, the MSA70, and the installed hard drives through HP SIM and ACU. ADU allows you to view the firmware versions for the host controller and hard drives, but not the MSA70.
