3 Maintaining Your Server
CAUTIONS
ESD can damage disk drives, boards, and other parts. Perform all procedures
in this chapter only at an ESD workstation. If one is not available, provide
some ESD protection by wearing an antistatic wrist strap attached to chassis
groundany unpainted metal surfaceon your server when handling parts.
Always handle boards carefully. They can be extremely sensitive to ESD.
Hold boards only by their edges. Do not touch the connector contacts. After
removing a board from its protective wrapper or from the server, place the
board component side up on a grounded, static free surface. If you place the
server board on a conductive surface, the battery leads may short out. If they
do, this will result in a loss of CMOS data and will drain the battery. Use a
conductive foam pad if available but not the board wrapper. Do not slide
board over any surface.
For proper cooling and airflow, always install the access cover before turning
on the server. Operating the server without the cover in place can damage
system parts.
