Installing a Rack

This section describes how to install a rack that already has your system IRUs rackmounted and cabled together. The following information is provided:

“Preinstallation Activities” on page 6

“Unloading and Moving System Equipment” on page 12

“Removing a Short Rack from the Shipping Crate” on page 16

“Unpacking and Installing the Tall Rack” on page 18

“Positioning and Leveling Racks” on page 21

After you have completed installing your rack, proceed to “Cabling the System IRUs to a Power Source” on page 31 to continue your installation.

If your system components were not shipped in a rack, skip this section and proceed to “Unpacking and Inspecting Modules” on page 22 to begin your installation.

Preinstallation Activities

Perform the following preinstallation activities:

Perform site verifications (see “Site Plan Verification” on page 6)

Gather appropriate tools to complete the installation (see “Tools Required” on page 7)

Ensure that the correct power receptacle is installed and properly wired (see “Power Receptacle Verification” on page 8)

Note: You can perform the preinstallation activities days or weeks before you receive your system.

Site Plan Verification

Ensure that all site requirements are met before your system arrives. If you have questions about the site requirements or you would like to order full-size floor templates for your site, contact a site planning representative by e-mail (site@sgi.com).
