The basic steps for installing the MMS server into a rack are:

1.Prepare the Slide Rail Assemblies: The Inner and Outer Rails must be separated before they can be attached to the MMS and the rack.

2.Attach the Inner Server Rails to the MMS Server.

3.Attach the Extension Brackets to the Outer Slide Rails.

4.Install the Outer Slide Rails in the server.

5.Slide the server (with Inner Server Rails attached) into the Outer Slide Rails in the rack.

Each step is described in more detail in the following subsections.
