Install the Cable Management Arm
f.
Swing the cable covers down and press down on the cable cover handle to
lock them into the closed position.
4.
Ensure that the six Velcro straps are threaded into the CMA.
Note -
Ensure that the two Velcro straps located on the front slide bar are threaded through the
opening in the top of the slide bar as shown in the illustration in Step 1 . This prevents the Velcro
straps from interfering with the expansion and contraction of the slide bar when the storage
server is extended out of the rack and returned into the rack.
5. Extend the storage server approximately 13 cm (5 inches) out of the front of the
rack.
6. Take the CMA to the back of the equipment rack, and ensure that you have
adequate room to work at the back of the storage server.
Note -
References to “left” or “right” in this procedure assume that you are facing the back of
the equipment rack.
Note -
Throughout this installation procedure, support the CMA and do not allow it to hang
under its own weight until it is secured at all four attachment points.
7. To install the CMA's connector A into the left slide-rail:
a. Insert the CMA's connector A into the front slot on the left slide-rail until it
locks into place with an audible click [frames 1 and 2].
The connector A tab (callout 1) goes into the slide-rail's front slot (callout 2).
