Rack Installation

5-1 Overview

This chapter provides instructions on installing the chassis into a rack. Following these steps in the order given should enable you to have the system installed in a minimal amount of time.

5-2 Unpacking the System

You should 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 your 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 Pre- cautions in the next section.

5-3 Preparing for Setup

The box your chassis was shipped in should include four mounting screws, which you will need if you intend to install the system into a rack. Read this section in its entirety before you begin 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 (~25 inches).

•Leave approximately 30 inches of clearance in back of the rack to allow for sufficient airflow and ease in servicing.
