l Each component is intended to operate with all working power supplies installed.l Provide a suitable power source with electrical overload protection.l A safe electrical earth connection must be provided to each power cord. Checkthe grounding of the power sources before applying power.l The plug on each power supply cord is used as the main device to disconnectpower from the system. Ensure that the socket outlets are located near theequipment and are easily accessible.l Permanently unplug the unit if you think it is damaged in any way and beforemoving the system. A DD9500/DD9800 system includes four power supplies. Tocompletely remove system power, you must disconnect all four power supplies.l The power connections must always be disconnected prior to removal orreplacement of a power supply module from any of the components in the system.l A faulty power supply module must be replaced within 24 hours.l Do not lift system components by yourself. A DD9500/DD9800 system weighs upto 117 lbs (53.2 kg), an ES30 expansion shelf weighs up to 68 lbs (30.8 kg), and aDS60 shelf weighs up to 225 lbs (90.7 kg).CAUTIONData Domain systems are heavy. Use at least two people or a mechanical liftto move any system.l Do not lift an expansion shelf by the handles on any modules. The handles are notdesigned to support the weight of the populated shelf.l To comply with applicable safety, emission, and thermal requirements, coversmust not be removed and all bays must be fitted with plug-in modules.l Once removed from the shipping box, it is ok to lift the DD9500/DD9800 systemor the chassis with the four handles to place in a rack. You will need to remove thehandles from the sides before sliding the system in the rack. The four handlesshould be saved for later use.Figure 1 Warning about lifting the systeml Load the rack with storage shelves beginning at the bottom and the DD9500system in the designated location to prevent the rack from becoming top-heavy.l For ESD protection, Data Domain recommends that you wear a suitable antistaticwrist or ankle strap. Observe all conventional ESD precautions when handlingplug-in modules and components.Planning and Site PreparationSafety information 13
