Mounting Options
The server chassis can be mounted with the chassis front at the rack columns, or with the chassis centered
between the rack columns. The front-mount option facilitates alignment of the chassis front panel with those
of other items in the rack. (The tray provides adequate support to prevent unbalancing the rack or stressing
the columns.) The center-mount option provides improved weight distribution for those installations where
columns are already stressed.

Mounting Options
The mounting holes in the chassis rack ears, together with the holes in the tray (base) and rack columns
(approximately 1/4-inch centers) allow adjustment of the server mounting position, up to the practical limits
of weight distribution. The server is supported in the tray (base) and held in position by eight screws
(provided).
