Installing the Server into the Rack
Locate a pair of front (short) and rear (long) brackets that were included with your
rack mounting hardware. Note that the brackets are marked with up/front arrows
(front) and up/rear arrows (rear). Secure the short front bracket (A in Figure
2-3) to the outer rail with two M4 x 4 mm roundhead screws. Locate the two
buttons on the outer rail (B in Figure 2-3) and attach the rear (long) bracket to it
by sliding the opening of the rear rail through the button. Measure the depth of
your rack and adjust the length of the rails accordingly. Repeat the same steps
to install the other outer rail on the chassis. Secure both outer rail assemblies
to the rack using M5 x 12 mm fl athead screws and M5 washers.
You are now ready to install the server into the rack. Slide the chassis into the
rack as shown in Figure 2-4. The chassis may not slide into the rack smoothly
or easily when installed the fi rst time. Some adjustment to the slide assemblies
might be needed for easy installation.)
When the server has been pushed completely into the rack, you should hear the
locking tabs "click". You will need to release the safety taps on both sides of the
chassis in order to completely remove the chassis out of the rack.
