Rack Installation
6-1 Overview
This chapter provides a quick setup to install the chassis into a rack. Following
these steps in the order given should enable you to complete the rack installation
within a minimal amount of time.
6-2 Unpacking the System
Inspect the box the chassis was shipped in and note if it was damaged in any way.
If the chassis itself shows damage you should file a damage claim with the carrier
who delivered it.
Decide on a suitable location for the rack unit that will hold the chassis. It should be
situated in a clean, dust-free area that is well ventilated. Avoid areas where heat,
electrical noise and electromagnetic fields are generated. You will also need it placed
near a grounded power outlet. Be sure to read the Rack and Server Precautions
in the next section.
6-3 Preparing for Setup
Rail assemblies (two inner rails, two outer rails and the mounting screws you will
need to install the system into a four-post rack) are optional features on the SC842
chassis and can be purchased separately. Refer to the Supermicro web site at
www.supermicro.com for the rail model number and ordering information. Please
read this section in its entirety before beginning the installation procedure outlined
in the sections that follow.
Choosing a Setup Location
•
Leave enough clearance in front of the rack to enable you to open the front door
completely (twenty-five inches).
•
Leave approximately thirty inches of clearance in the back of the rack to allow
for sufficient airflow and ease in servicing.
