Installing the Servers in a Rack

Note – Ensure that you have all of the parts in the rackmount kit before you begin the installation of the server. See “Shipping Kit Inventory List for Both Servers” on page xv.

Note – The procedures in this chapter are the same for both the 1U and 2U servers. The illustrations show a 2U server only as an example.

The rackmount kit (same for both 1U and 2U servers) contains two slide rail assemblies, which can be installed on either the right or left side of the rack. A slide rail assembly consists of two parts: a slide rail and a removeable mounting bracket. The slide rail attaches to the rack posts. The mounting bracket attaches to the SPARC Enterprise T5120 and T5220 chassis.

To Install the Slide Rail Assemblies

1.Pull both mounting brackets completely out of their respective slide rails.

a.Simultaneously press and hold the upper and lower lock buttons of the slide rail lock (FIGURE 2-1).
