Safety guidelines
While troubleshooting your server, follow these safety guidelines:
■
Never remove the top front cover or inside cover while your server is turned
on and while the modem cable and the power cords are connected.
■
Only the top rear cover should be removed while the server is on, in order
to access hot-swap fans and PCI cards.
■
Do not attempt to open the monitor. To do so is extremely dangerous. Even
if the power is disconnected, energy stored in the monitor components
can be dangerous. Also, opening the monitor voids its warranty.
■
Make sure that you are grounded correctly before opening the server. For
more information about preventing damage from static electricity, see
"Preventing static electricity discharge" on page
■
After you complete any maintenance task where you have to remove the
top front or inside covers, make sure that you close the case and reconnect
all cables before you restart your server.
Warning
To avoid bodily injury, do not attempt to troubleshoot your
server problem if:
The power cords or plugs are damaged
■
Liquid has been spilled into your server
■
Your server was dropped
■
The case was damaged
■
Instead, unplug your server and contact a qualified
