Electrical Safety

Observe the following safety instructions any time you are connecting or disconnecting

devices attached to the server.

DANGER

An electrical outlet that is not correctly wired could place hazardous voltage

on metal parts of the system or the devices that attach to the system. It is the

responsibility of the customer to ensure that the outlet is correctly wired and

grounded to prevent an electrical shock.

Before installing or removing signal cables, ensure that the power cables for

the system unit and all attached devices are unplugged.

When adding or removing any additional devices to or from the system,

ensure that the power cables for those devices are unplugged before the

signal cables are connected. If possible, disconnect all power cables from the

existing system before you add a device.

Use one hand, when possible, to connect or disconnect signal cables to

prevent a possible shock from touching two surfaces with different electrical

potentials.

During an electrical storm, do not connect cables for display stations, printers,

telephones, or station protectors for communications lines.

CAUTION:

This product is equipped with a three–wire power cable and plug for the user’s

safety. Use this power cable with a properly grounded electrical outlet to avoid

electrical shock.

Laser Safety Information

CAUTION:

This product may contain a CD-ROM which is a class 1 laser product.

Laser Compliance

All lasers are certified in the U.S. to conform to the requirements of DHHS 21 CFR

Subchapter J for class 1 laser products. Outside the U.S., they are certified to be in

compliance with the IEC 825 (first edition 1984) as a class 1 laser product. Consult the

label on each part for laser certification numbers and approval information.

xii Service Guide

CAUTION:

All IBM laser modules are designed so that there is never any human access to

laser radiation above a class 1 level during normal operation, user maintenance,

or prescribed service conditions. Data processing environments can contain

equipment transmitting on system links with laser modules that operate at

greater than class 1 power levels. For this reason, never look into the end of an

optical fiber cable or open receptacle. Only trained service personnel should

perform the inspection or repair of optical fiber cable assemblies and receptacles.

Preface xiii

xiv Service Guide

Data Integrity and Verification

These computer systems contain mechanisms designed to reduce the possibility of

undetected data corruption or loss. This risk, however, cannot be eliminated. Users who

experience unplanned outages, system failures, power fluctuations or outages, or

component failures must verify the accuracy of operations performed and data saved or

transmitted by the system at or near the time of the outage or failure. In addition, users

must establish procedures to ensure that there is independent data verification before

relying on such data in sensitive or critical operations. Users should periodically check

our support websites for updated information and fixes applicable to the system and

related software.

About This Book

This book provides maintenance information that is specific to the 25F/80, 256/F0 and

256/F1, as well as to adapters and attached devices that do not have their own service

information. In this book, the 25F/80, 256/F0 and 256/F1 are hereafter referred to as

the ″system″ or the ″server.″

This book also contains Maintenance Analysis Procedures (MAPs) that are not common

to other systems. MAPs that are common to all systems are contained in the

Diagnostic

Information for Multiple Bus Systems

.

This book is used by the service technician to repair system failures. This book

assumes that the service technician has had training on the system unit.

ISO 9000

ISO 9000 registered quality systems were used in the development and manufacturing

of this product.
