2-4 Installing the System into a Rack
This section provides information on installing the SuperServer 5017C-MF into a
rack unit. If the system has already been mounted into a rack, you can skip ahead
to Sections 2-5 and 2-6.
Note: the server may be installed as is - rack hardware is optional.
Basic Installation Procedure
The 5017C-MF server comes with two rack mounting brackets, which are located
on each side at the front of the chassis. To mount the system into a rack, simply
screw these brackets directly to the front of the rack (two screws for each bracket).
As Figure 2-1 shows, the brackets can be located at the front of the chassis (left
fi gure) or moved approximately one-third to the rear of the chassis (right fi gure).
