Installing a chassis in a rack
Because of the weight of a fully loaded chassis (97 lbs minimum), IBM recommends
mounting a chassis in a rack before installing the modules and power supplies.
You can flush mount the B08S using the built-in mounting brackets on the front of
the device. Alternatively, you can use the optional rack mount kit to mid-mount the
chassis in a rack. The B16S does not have adjustable mounting brackets. To mount
the B16S in a rack, you will need to install the brackets in the rack mount kit that
ships with the chassis, as shown in Figure 19 on page 32.
Before performing this task, you should have an assembled rack and a #2
Phillips-head screwdriver.
See “Rack safety” on page xx for precautions when installing equipment in a rack.
Each device that you install in a rack, you must provide four mounting screws with
which to secure the chassis.
To mount the chassis in a rack using the adjustable mounting brackets, do the
following:
1. Determine the position of each chassis in the rack.
2. Position two of the four mounting screws for each chassis that you plan to
mount in the rack according to the spacings of the keyhole slots on the brackets
as shown in Figure 17 on page 31. Do not secure the screws completely; leave
approximately 1/4 inch of clearance between the back of the screw head and
the rack.
