Server Warnings and Cautions Before installing a server, be sure that you
understand the following warnings and cautions.
WARNING! To reduce the risk of electric shock or damage to the equipment: · Do
not disable the power cord grounding plug. The grounding plug is an important
safety
feature. · Plug the power cord into a grounded (earthed) electrical outlet
that is easily accessible at all
times. · Unplug all the power cords from the power supplies to disconnect
power to the equipment.
· · Shock Hazard! Disconnect all power supply cords before servicing. · Do not
route the power cord where it can be walked on or pinched by items placed
against it.
Pay particular attention to the plug, electrical outlet, and the point where
the cord extends from the server.
WARNING! To reduce the risk of personal injury from hot surfaces, allow the
drives and the internal system components to cool before touching them.
WARNING! This server is equipped with high speed fans. Keep away from
hazardous moving fan blades during servicing.
WARNING! This equipment is intended to be used in Restrict Access Location.
The access can only be gained by Skilled person. Only authorized by well
trained professional person can access the restrict access location.
CAUTION! · Do not operate the server for long periods with the access panel
open or removed. Operat-
ing the server in this manner results in improper airflow and improper cooling
that can lead to thermal damage. · Danger of explosion if battery is
incorrectly replaced. · Replace only with the same or equivalent type
recommended by the manufacturer. · Dispose of used batteries according to the
manufacturer’s instructions.
CAUTION!
Risk of explosion if battery is replaced incorrectly or with an incorrect
type. Replace the battery only with the same or equivalent type recommended by
the manufacturer. Dispose of used batteries according to the manufacturer’s
instructions.
Electrostatic Discharge (ESD) CAUTION!
ESD CAN DAMAGE DRIVES, BOARDS, AND OTHER PARTS. WE RECOMMEND THAT YOU PERFORM
ALL PROCEDURES AT AN ESD WORKSTATION. IF ONE IS NOT AVAILABLE, PROVIDE SOME
ESD PROTECTION BY WEARING AN ANTI-STATIC 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 without any component and pin touching. After
removing a board from its protective wrapper or from the system, place the
board component side up on a grounded, static free surface. Use a conductive
foam pad if available but not the board wrapper. Do not slide board over any
surface.
System power on/off: To remove power from system, you must remove the system
from rack. Make sure the system is removed from the rack before opening the
chassis, adding, or removing any non hot-plug components.
Hazardous conditions, devices and cables: Hazardous electrical conditions may
be present on power, telephone, and communication cables. Turn off the system
and disconnect the cables attached to the system before servicing it.
Otherwise, personal injury or equipment damage can result.
Electrostatic discharge (ESD) and ESD protection: ESD can damage drives,
boards, and other parts. We recommend that you 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 the server) when handling parts.
ESD and handling boards: Always handle boards carefully. They can be extremely
sensitive to electrostatic discharge (ESD). Hold boards only by their edges.
After removing a board from its protective wrapper or from the system, place
the board component side up on a grounded, static free surface. Use a
conductive foam pad if available but not the board wrapper. Do not slide board
over any surface.
Installing or removing jumpers: A jumper is a small plastic encased conductor
that slips over two jumper pins. Some jumpers have a small tab on top that can
be gripped with fingertips or with a pair of fine needle nosed pliers. If the
jumpers do not have such a tab, take care when using needle nosed pliers to
remove or install a jumper; grip the narrow sides of the jumper with the
pliers, never the wide sides. Gripping the wide sides can dam-age the contacts
inside the jumper, causing intermittent problems with the function con-trolled
by that jumper. Take care to grip with, but not squeeze, the pliers or other
tool used to remove a jumper, or the pins on the board may bend or break.

Chapter 2 BIOS Setup
BIOS (Basic Input and Output System) records hardware parameters of the system
in the EFI on the motherboard. Its major functions include conducting the
Power-On Self-Test (POST) during system startup, saving system parameters,
loading the operating system etc. The BIOS includes a BIOS Setup program that
allows the user to modify basic system configuration settings or to activate
certain system features. When the power is turned off, the battery on the
motherboard supplies the necessary power to the CMOS to keep the configuration
values in the CMOS.
To access the BIOS Setup program, press the key during the POST when the
power is turned on.
· BIOS flashing is potentially risky, if you do not encounter any problems
when using the current BIOS version, it is recommended that you don’t flash
the BIOS. To flash the BIOS, do it with caution. Inadequate BIOS flashing may
result in system malfunction.
· It is recommended that you not alter the default settings (unless you need
to) to prevent system instability or other unexpected results. Inadequately
altering the settings may result in system’s failure to boot. If this occurs,
try to clear the CMOS values and reset the board to default values. (Refer to
the Exit section in this chapter or introductions of the battery/clearing CMOS
jumper in Chapter 1 for how to clear the CMOS values.)
