To determine rack locations for the hardware
1
Determine the total number of rack units (RUs) that you need as follows:
■
The appliance and the storage shelves each require 2RUs of height in the
rack.
■
An appliance and four storage shelves require a total of ten RUs.
2
Use the rack templates that are provided with the hardware to determine RU
locations. The appliance and the storage shelf templates show the front and
rear of each device in a rack.
3
Record the rack positions to help you locate them easily when mounting the
hardware.
Best practices for rack installation
Prepare for the hardware installation by following these recommendations.
■
The storage shelves are heavier than the appliance and should be installed as
close to the bottom of the rack as possible.
■
Determine device order and cabling limits.
■
Be aware of the depth of the guide rails and the devices. Ensure that the distance
between cabinet posts accommodates the rails, devices, cables, and extending
ears.
■
Physically hold a SAS cable between the intended locations for the appliance
and the last storage shelf. Visually confirm that the cable is long enough.
