Step 4. Installing a Controller Enclosure

When you order the controller enclosure and the rack at the same time, Ciprico ships the rack with the controller enclosure support angles and cage nuts that correspond to the rack configuration you ordered already installed in the rack. In this situation, skip the next procedure and go directly to Installing Mounting Brackets on page 22.

Attaching Controller Enclosure Support Angles

If you are installing an additional controller enclosure in a rack that was not originally configured to include this controller, you need to attach support angles in the rack. This situation can arise if, for example, you originally ordered an AAMK36A rack and now want to convert it to an AAMK36A2. In this situation, order the controller enclosure mounting kit when you order the controller enclosure.

Install all controllers as specified in Supported Rack Configurations: Configuration for One RAID System (AAMK36A) on page 6; Configuration for Two RAID Systems (AAMK36A2) on page 7 Configuration for Three RAID Systems (AAMK36A3) on page 7; Configuration for Four RAID Systems (AAMK36A4) on page 8

Note To install support angles, you may have to remove disk enclosures or rails.
