2.4 Installing the Chassis into a Rack
Once rails are attached to the chassis and the rack, you can install the server.
Warning:
Mounting the system into the rack requires at least two people to support the
chassis during installation. Please follow safety recommendations printed on the rails.
Installing the Chassis into a Rack
1.
Confirm that the chassis includes the inner rails and rail extensions. Also, confirm that
the outer rails are installed on the rack.
2. Align the chassis rails with the front of the rack rails.
3. Slide the chassis rails into the rack rails, keeping the pressure even on both sides.
(It may be necessary to depress the locking tabs when inserting.) When the server
has been pushed completely into the rack, the locking tabs will "click" into the locked
position.
4. (Optional) Insert and tighten the thumbscrews that hold the front of the server to the
rack.
Figure 2-4. Installing the Server into a Rack
Note
: The figures above are for illustrative purposes only and may differ from your actual
unit. Always install servers into racks from the bottom up.
Stability hazard. The rack stabilizing mechanism must be in place, or the rack must
be bolted to the floor before you slide the unit out for servicing. Failure to stabilize the
rack can cause the rack to tip over.
