Mounting the Vertigo XG Chassis in a Rack
Mounting the Vertigo XG Chassis in a Rack
Included in the shipping package is a rack mounting kit, which contains the two rail units
and screws required to mount the Vertigo XG chassis into an equipment rack. Note that the
rails are designed to fit in racks with a depth of 28” to 33”.
Complete and detailed instructions for installing the Vertigo XG chassis in a rack are
provided in the “Rack Installation” section of the
SuperMicro SC835 Chassis Series User’s
Manual
.
Hard Disk Drive (HDD)
screws
The HDD screws are not required during the initial installation
of a factory configured Vertigo XG.
The HDD screws are required to perform an on-site installation
of the 1 TB RAID10 Expansion option (VX-2TB-UPG), which
increases the Vertigo XG’s usable storage from 1TB to 2TB.
Therefore, we recommend storing the HDD screws for future
use.

XG hardware and software. It also identifies Grass Valley’s

License Agreement card

SuperMicro User’s Manual
and Bootable CD
Since the Vertigo XG uses the SuperMicro SC835TQ-R800B
chassis, we recommend that you consult the
SuperMicro SC835
Chassis Series User’s Manual
regarding important installation
and operation information, including the chassis’ technical
specifications.
The
SuperMicro SC835 Chassis Series User’s Manual
is also
available for download from the SuperMicro Web Site.
The Vertigo XG uses SuperMicro’s motherboard. As such, the
documentation and bootable CD (drivers & utilities) have been
included in the Vertigo XG shipping package.
IMPORTANT
- Server Chassis Installation
• Vertigo XG units are intended to be installed in restricted locations by qualified
personnel.
• Due to the heavy weight of the unit, the rack in which the Vertigo XG will be
installed should be anchored to the building’s structure.
• All health and safety regulations and precautions must be observed as identified in
