Handling of cables on the floor
•
Protect cables that cannot be routed within a rack and are laid on the
floor including across a doorway. Use a cable duct to prevent wear on
the cable, tripping over, and walking on the cables, and thus laid on the
floor or cables that cross a passage with cable ducts, etc.
•
Do not route rack-to-rack cables in the air. Route them down the rack
and under the floor if possible. Otherwise route them across the floor
and use a cable duct to protect them.
Handling of under-floor cables
Use cables of sufficient length such that the cables can be laid somewhat
loosely on the floor under the computer room floor, and are not hanging or
stretched between the racks or arrays. Tight cables can be damaged or
broken if stretched beyond their specified limits, as could happen in an
earthquake.
Equipment safety
The following safety instructions are designed to help protect the array from
various types of physical and electrical damage.
•
Moisture. Do not store or install the unit in a place where moisture
exists or is likely to condense on the unit.
•
Heat. Do not install the unit in a rack which has less than the specified
cooling. The AMS 2100/2300 has heat sensors which will cause the unit
to shut down if the internal temperature exceeds the specifications. See
the Hitachi AMS 2000 Family Storage System Reference Guide for
details.
•
Electromagnetic interference (EMI). When the array is operating under
normal conditions, close the rack doors if installed. This helps to protect
the array from EMI.
Static-sensitive. Ground yourself before touching.
To avoid damage to the array or array components due to electrostatic
discharge (ESD), wear an anti-static wrist strap when handling, installing,
or removing any components from the array. Connect the clip to an
unpainted part of the array chassis frame to safely channel any static
electricity generated by your body to ground. If no wrist strap is available,
ground yourself by touching an unpainted part of the array chassis frame.
