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 the power cord from the power supply to disconnect power to the equipment. • 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. CAUTION: Do not operate the server for long periods with the access panel open or removed. Operating the server in this manner results in improper airflow and improper cooling that can lead to thermal damage. Preparation procedures To access some components and perform certain service procedures, perform one or more of the following procedures: • Extend the server from the rack ("Extending the server from the rack" on page 27). If you are performing service procedures in an HP, Compaq branded, telco, or third-party rack cabinet, you can use the locking feature of the rack rails to support the server and gain access to internal components. For more information about telco rack solutions, refer to the RackSolutions.com website (http://www.racksolutions.com/hp). • Power down the server (on page 29). If you must remove a server from a rack or a non-hot-plug component from a server, power down the server. • Remove the server from the rack (on page 29). If the rack environment, cabling configuration, or the server location in the rack makes it difficult to service the unit, remove the server from the rack. • Remove the access panel ("Removing the access panel" on page 29). If you are servicing internal components, remove the access panel. • Remove the system cage ("Removing the system cage" on page 31). If you must remove the system board, power backplane, or the BBWC, remove the system cage.
