Install the nodes
Install all of the EX300 nodes in the rack.
Before you begin
If there will be empty chassis, you must install fillers in place of the nodes. If you are
using fillers, be sure to cover the front of the chassis with a 2U bezel as described in:
Installing 2U bezels .
Note
There is no bezel to install in-front of the node.
CAUTION
Installing the node requires a lift and at least 2 people to complete the operation.
