● Store a replaceable unit in the antistatic bag and the specially designed shipping container in which you received it. Use the antistatic bag and special shipping container when you need to return the replaceable unit. ● Replaceable units must acclimate to the operating environment before applying power. This requires the unpackaged component to reside in the operating environment for up to 16 hours in order to thermally stabilize and prevent condensation. Refer to Hardware acclimation times to ensure the replaceable unit has thermally stabilized to the operating environment. NOTE: Your storage system is designed to be powered on continuously. Most components are hot swappable; that is, you can replace or install these components while the storage system is running. However, the system requires that front bezels should always be attached to ensure EMI compliance. Make sure you reattach the bezel after replacing a component. Also, each slot should contain a component or filler panel to ensure proper air flow throughout the system. Unpacking a part Use these best practices to unpack a part. Steps 1. Wear ESD gloves or attach an ESD wristband to your wrist and the enclosure in which you are installing the part. 2. Unpack the part and place it on a static-free surface. 3. If the part is a replacement for a faulted part, save the packing material to return the faulted part. Standard touch point colors Touch points are component locations where you can: ● Grip the hardware to remove or install a component. ● Open or close a latch. ● Turn a knob to open, close, or adjust a component. Standard touch point colors are terra-cotta (orange) or blue. NOTE: Within this documentation, the color orange is used instead of terra-cotta for simplicity. Table 11. Standard touch point colors Touch point color Description Terra-cotta (orange) This color indicates that you can perform the task, such as remove a component with a terracotta (orange) lever, while the system remains powered (up/on). NOTE: Some tasks may require additional steps. Blue This color indicates that a shutdown of the system or component is required before you can perform the task, such as removing a component with a blue lever.
