Before expanding Oracle PCA, read the following important safety information:
Read the Important Safety Information for Oracle's Hardware Systems (7063567) document that is shipped with the system.
Observe all safety notices printed on the packaging and listed in the Sun Rack II Safety and Compliance Guide (820-4762) and the Sun Rack II Power Distribution Units User's Guide (E23956-01). Go to http://download.oracle.com/docs/cd/E19657-01/index.html to download these guides.
Review the safety precautions listed in Section 4.2.2, “Review Safety Guidelines”.
Before powering on the system, review the following safety precautions. Failure to observe these precautions can result in personal injury, equipment damage, or malfunction.
Do not block ventilation openings.
Do not place cables under the equipment or stretch the cables too tightly.
Do not disconnect power cords from the equipment while its power is on.
If you cannot reach the connector lock when disconnecting LAN cables, then press the connector lock with a flathead screwdriver to disconnect the cable. You could damage the system board if you force your fingers into the gap rather than using a flathead screwdriver.
Do not place anything on top of the system or perform any work directly above it.
Do not let the room temperature rise sharply, especially during winter. Sudden temperature changes can cause condensation to form inside the system. Allow for a sufficient warm-up period prior to system operation.
Avoid static electricity at the installation location. Static electricity transferred to the system can cause malfunctions. Static electricity is often generated on carpets.
Confirm that the supply voltage and frequency match the electrical ratings indicated on your Oracle PCA.
Do not insert anything into any system opening, unless doing so is part of a documented procedure. The system contains high-voltage parts. If a metal object or other electrically-conductive object enters an opening in the system, then it could cause a short circuit. This could result in personal injury, fire, electric shock, and equipment damage.
Visually inspect the installed expansion rack before applying power.
Check for rack damage.
Check the rack for loose or missing screws.
Check that all cable connections are secure and firmly in place.
Check the site location tile arrangement for cable access and airflow. Check the data center airflow that leads in to the front of the system.
