IBM System Storage DS5020, Installation, User'S, And Maintenance Manual

Page: 66 / 260

Before installing the DS5020 in a rack cabinet, you must install the rails and
rack-mounting hardware that come with your storage subsystem. The DS5020
requires an Electronic Industries Association (EIA) 310-D Type A 19-inch rack
cabinet. The distance between EIA rails, from the front to the rear of the rack, is
60.96 cm (24 in.) minimum and 81.28 cm (32 in.) maximum. This rack conforms to
the EIA standard. Where you place the support rails in the rack depends on where
you intend to position the storage subsystem.
Complete the following steps to install the support rails.
Note: Refer to Figure 15 on page 37 while performing these steps.
