5.1 Before You Begin
Before working with your server product, pay close attention to the safety
instructions provided in this manual. See Appendix A: Safety Information.
Warning: Electrostatic discharge (ESD) and ESD protection: ESD can damage disk drives,
boards, and other parts. We recommend that you perform all procedures in this
chapter only at an ESD workstation. If one is not available, provide some ESD
protection by wearing an antistatic wrist strap attached to chassis ground (any
unpainted metal surface) on your server when handling parts.
Tools and Supplies Needed
•
#1 and #2 Phillips (cross-point) screwdrivers (or interchangeable tip screwdriver
with #1 and #2 Phillips bits)
•
Personal grounding device such as an anti-static wrist strap and a grounded
conductive pad
System References
All references to left, right, front, top, and bottom assume that you are facing the
front of the server, as it would be positioned for normal operation.
Cable Routing Reference
It is important for cables to be connected correctly. See Figure 24 and Table 4 for
cable routing and for more detailed information, see the Kontron IP Network Server
NSN2U Technical Product Specification
.
5.2 Replacing Fans
The fan replacement spare kit for the NSN2U server contains two 60mm fans and four
80mm fans. Each fan module is exactly like the fans in the server, i.e., the bracket
and plastic finger guard are attached. For ordering information, see the IP Network
Server NSN2U Configuration Guide
. The latest version of the Configuration Guide is
located on the
(search for
NSN2U, click on Product Downloads, then Ordering Guide).
NOTE: Before replacing any of the fans, you must remove the front chassis cover.
Because the fans are hot-swappable, you do not need to shut down the server system
and disconnect the power and external devices as is customary when removing the
top cover(s).
