EonStor S12S-R/G1032 Installation and Hardware Reference Manual
Safety Precautions
Precautions and Instructions
Provide a soft, clean surface to place your subsystem on before
working on it. Servicing on a rough surface may damage the
exterior of the chassis.
The EonStor subsystem comes with numerous drive bays.
Leaving any of these drive bays empty will seriously affect the
efficiency of the airflow through the enclosure interior, and will
consequently lead to system overheating, which can cause
irreparable damage.
Prior to powering on the subsystem, ensure that the correct
power range is being used.
All modules must be properly installed before powering on the
subsystem. If a cooling module is missing, heat will quickly
accumulate within the chassis and the other components may
malfunction.
If a module fails, leave it in place until you have a replacement
unit and you are ready to replace it.
Handle subsystem modules using their retention screws, eject
levers, and the metal frames/face plates. Avoid touching PCB
boards and connector pins.
Airflow Consideration: The subsystem requires an airflow
clearance, especially at the front and rear.
Be sure that the rack cabinet into which the subsystem chassis
will be installed provides sufficient ventilation channels and
airflow circulation around the subsystem.
To comply with safety, emission, or thermal requirements, none
of the covers or replaceable modules should be removed. Make
sure that all enclosure modules and covers are securely in place
during operation.
Single-controller models come with a single controller module
and a dummy cage is placed over the lower controller bay. Since
the single-controller modules cannot be upgraded, this metal
sheet should NEVER be removed.
If it is necessary to transport the subsystem, repackage all disk
drives separately using the original packaging materials.
