System
reliability
guidelines
To
help
ensure
proper
cooling
and
system
reliability,
make
sure
that
the
following
requirements
are
met:
v
Each
of
the
drive
bays
has
a
drive
or
an
electromagnetic
compatibility
(EMC)
shield
installed
in
it.
v
If
the
server
has
redundant
power,
each
of
the
power-supply
bays
has
a
power
supply
installed
in
it.
v
There
is
adequate
space
around
the
server
to
allow
the
server
cooling
system
to
work
properly.
Leave
approximately
50
mm
(2.0
in.)
of
open
space
around
the
front
and
rear
of
the
server.
Do
not
place
objects
in
front
of
the
fans.
For
proper
cooling
and
airflow,
replace
the
left-side
cover
before
you
turn
on
the
server.
Operating
the
server
for
extended
periods
of
time
(more
than
30
minutes)
with
the
left-side
cover
removed
might
damage
server
components.
v
You
have
followed
the
cabling
instructions
that
come
with
optional

v
You
have
replaced
a
failed
fan
within

2
minutes
of
removal.
v
You
do
not
remove
the
air
ducts
or
air
baffles
while
the
server
is
running.
Operating
the
server
without
the
air
ducts
or
air
baffles
might
cause
the
microprocessor
to
overheat.
v
Microprocessor
socket
2
always
contains
either
a
microprocessor
baffle
or
a
microprocessor
and
heat
sink.
