SUPERSERVER 6014H-8/6014H-82/6014H-X8 Manual

2-4 Installing the System into a Rack

This section provides information on installing the SuperServer 6014H-8/ 6014H-82/6014H-X8 into a rack unit with the rack rails provided. If the server has already been mounted into a rack, you can skip ahead to Sec- tions 2-5 and 2-6. There are a variety of rack units on the market, which may mean the assembly procedure will differ slightly. 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 6014H-8/

6014H-82/6014H-X8. Each of these assemblies consists of two sections: an inner fixed chassis rail that secures to the chassis and an outer fixed rack rail that secures directly to the rack itself. Two pairs of short brackets to be used on the front side of the outer rails are also included.

Installing the Inner Rails

First, locate the right inner rail (the rail that will be used on the right side of the chassis when you face the front of the chassis). Align the four square holes on the right inner rail against the hooks on the right side of the chassis. Securely attach the rail to the chassis with two M4 flat head screws. Repeat these steps to install the left inner rail to the left side of the chassis.
