Front of rail
Notes:
v
With some types of racks, you might find it helpful to remove the rack doors and side panels to
provide easier access during installation.
v
The slide rails are marked (RIGHT / FRONT and LEFT / FRONT) for proper placement on the rack
flanges.
v
The front and back of each rail has a spring-loaded rail-locking carrier, which can be locked in the
open position and then released when the rail is in the rack.
When you are ready to install the support rails, use the customer's hardware-location chart and the
Electronic Industries Alliance (EIA) positions on the rack to determine where in the rack that the SAN
Volume Controller node is to be installed.
Perform the following steps to install the support rails:
1.
Ensure that the rail-locking carriers at the front and rear of each support rail are open. The
mechanism to open is similar at each end. If a locking mechanism is closed, as shown in Figure 53
(for a front bracket), open it.
To open the rail-locking carrier, push the small tab
3
back away from the rail and slide the larger
tab
2
toward the center of the slide rail. Slide the rail-locking carrier approximately 15 mm toward
the end of the slide rail until the rail-locking carrier locks in the open position, as shown in Figure 54
on page 71 (which shows the rear bracket).
