2-4 Installing the System into a Rack
This section provides information on installing the SuperServer 6015C-M3/6015C-
MT into a rack unit with the rack rails provided. If the server has already been
mounted into a rack, you can skip ahead to Sections 2-5 and 2-6. There are a
variety of rack units on the market, which may mean the assembly procedure will
differ slightly. You should also refer to the installation instructions that came with
the rack unit you are using.
Identifying the Sections of the Rack Rails
You may have received rack rail hardware with the SuperServer 6015C-M3/6015C-
MT. (Two front inner rails should already be attached to the chassis.) This hard-
ware consists of two rear inner rails that secure to the chassis, one on each side
just behind the preinstalled front inner rails. Note that these two rails are left/right
specifi c.
Installing the Rear Inner Rails
First, locate the right rear inner rail (the rail that will be used on the right side of
the chassis when you face the front of the chassis). Align the two square holes on
the rail against the hooks on the right side of the chassis. Securely attach the rail
to the chassis with M4 fl at head screws. Repeat these steps to install the left rear
inner rail to the left side of the chassis (see Figure 2-1). You will also need to attach
the rail brackets when installing into a telco rack.
Locking Tabs: Both chassis rails have a locking tab, which serves two functions.
The fi rst is to lock the server into place when installed and pushed fully into the
rack, which is its normal position. Secondly, these tabs also lock the server in place
when fully extended from the rack. This prevents the server from coming completely
out of the rack when you pull it out for servicing.
