Installing or replacing a 5U expansion enclosure in a rack
Use the following procedure to place a 5U expansion enclosure in a rack during the installation process.
To complete some service tasks, you might also need to slide the enclosure back in to the rack.
About this task
Important: The 5U expansion enclosure is heavy. Before you install the expansion enclosure in the rack
for the first time or replace it in the rack to complete a service task, review and implement the following
tasks:
• Always use a suitably rated mechanical lift or four persons to raise the enclosure to install it in the rack.
Even after the drives, power supply units, secondary expander modules, canisters, fans, and top cover
are removed, the enclosure weighs 43 kg (95 lbs).
• Install the expansion enclosure in the lowest position in the rack. Figure 42 on page 50 shows an
example.
