Safety Considerations
Electrostatic Discharge Information
A discharge of static electricity can damage static-sensitive devices or microcircuitry. Proper
packaging and grounding techniques are necessary precautions to prevent damage. To
prevent electrostatic damage, observe the following precautions:
Transport products in static-safe containers such as conductive tubes, bags, or boxes.
Keep electrostatic-sensitive parts in their containers until they arrive at static-free
stations.
Cover workstations with approved static-dissipating material. Use a wrist strap connected
to the work surface and properly grounded tools and equipment.
Keep the work area free of nonconductive materials such as ordinary plastic assembly
aids and foam packing.
Always be properly grounded when touching a static-sensitive component or assembly.
Use conductive field service tools.
Server Blade Warnings and Cautions
WARNING: Setting the server blade Power On/Standby button to the standby position
removes power from most areas of the server blade. This process may take
30 seconds, during which time some internal circuitry remains active. To remove power
completely, remove the server blade from the server blade enclosure.
HP ProLiant BL30p Server Blade Maintenance and Service Guide 2-1

Removal and Replacement Procedures
WARNING: To reduce the risk of personal injury from hot surfaces, allow the internal
system components to cool before touching them.
CAUTION: When performing non-hot-plug operations, you must power down the server
blade and/or the system. However, it may be necessary to leave the server blade powered up
when performing other operations, such as hot-plug installations or troubleshooting.
Rack Warnings and Cautions
WARNING: The power supply enclosure and the server blade enclosure are very
heavy. To reduce the risk of personal injury or damage to the equipment:
• Observe local occupational health and safety requirements and guidelines for
manual material handling.
• Remove hot-plug power supplies and server blades from their enclosures before
installing or removing the enclosures.
• Use caution and get help to lift and stabilize enclosures during installation or
removal, especially when the enclosure is not fastened to the rack.
WARNING: Always use at least two people to lift a power supply enclosure or server
blade enclosure into the rack. If the enclosure is being loaded into the rack above chest
level, a third person MUST assist with aligning the enclosure with the rails while the
other two people support the weight of the enclosure.
WARNING: To reduce the risk of personal injury or damage to the equipment, be sure
that:
• The leveling jacks of the rack are extended to the floor.
• The full weight of the rack rests on the leveling jacks.
• The stabilizers are attached to the rack if it is a single rack installation.
• The racks are coupled in multiple rack installations.
WARNING: When installing the server blade enclosure in a telco rack, be sure that the
rack frame is adequately secured to the building structure.
WARNING: To reduce the risk of personal injury or damage to the equipment, at least
two people are needed to safely unload the rack from the pallet. An empty 42U rack
weighs 115 kg (253 lb), is over 2.1 m (7 ft) tall, and may become unstable when being
moved on its casters. Do not stand in front of the rack as it rolls down the ramp from
the pallet, but handle the rack from both sides.
WARNING: To reduce the risk of shock or injury from high-current electrical energy,
do not reach into a server blade enclosure once it has been installed in a rack and
connected to a working rack bus bar. Do not touch the power or data backplanes within
the server blade enclosure once it has been installed.

Removal and Replacement Procedures
Server Blade Preparation
To service any internal server blade component, you must power down the server blade and
remove it from the server blade enclosure.
NOTE: When removing a server blade, it is not necessary to remove the blade sleeve from the
enclosure.
CAUTION: Electrostatic discharge can damage electronic components. Be sure you are
properly grounded before beginning any installation procedure. For more information, refer to
the “Electrostatic Discharge Information” section in this chapter.
System power in server blades does not completely shut off with the front panel Power
On/Standby switch or Integrated Lights-Out (iLO) Virtual Power Button feature. The
function toggles between on and standby modes, rather than on and off. The standby position
removes power from most electronics and the drives, but portions of the power supply and
some internal circuitry remain active.
To service internal server blade components:
1. Identify the proper server blade in the server blade enclosure.
2. Remove power from the server blade in one of the following ways:
— Use the Virtual Power Button feature in iLO to power down the server blade from a
remote location. Be sure that the server blade is in standby mode by observing that
the power LED is amber.
— Press the Power On/Standby button on the front of the server blade. Be sure that the
server blade is in standby mode by observing that the power LED is amber.
CAUTION: After you press the release button, the server blade is unlocked from the blade
sleeve and can then be removed from the enclosure. Use both hands to support the server
blade when you remove it from the rack.
