2-4 Installing the SuperServer 5010H/5010E into aRack
This section provides information on installing the SuperServer 5010H/5010E
into a rack unit. If the 5010H/5010E has already been mounted into a rack,
you can skip ahead to Sections 2-5 and 2-6. There are a variety of rack
units on the market, which may mean the assembly procedure will differ
slightly. The following is a guideline for installing the 5010H/5010E into a
rack with the rack rails provided. You should also refer to the installation
instructions that came with the rack unit you are using.

Identifying the Sections of the Rack Rails:

You should have received two rack rail assemblies with the SuperServer
5010H/5010E. Each of these assemblies consist of two sections: an inner
fixed chassis rail that secures to the 5010H/5010E (A) and an outer fixed
rack rail that secures directly to the rack itself (B). A sliding rail guide
sandwiched between the two should remain attached to the fixed rack rail.
(See Figure 2-1.) The A and B rails must be detached from each other to
install.
To remove the fixed chassis rail (A), pull it out as far as possible - you
should hear a "click" sound as a locking tab emerges from inside the rail
assembly and locks the inner rail. Then depress the locking tab to pull the
