HP HPE 3PAR StoreServ 8000 Installation Manual page 60

NOTE: The middle support bracket is only used in a Hewlett Packard Enterprise rack with
posts that extend to a depth of 29 inches. Install the middle support bracket when transporting
the system to another location. Retain and store the middle support brackets if they are not being
used. Installing the middle support bracket can be difficult due to limited clearance in the vertical
rails of the rack.
Install the middle support bracket before transporting:
1. Align the middle support bracket holes with the top holes of the rails. The orientation of the
middle support bracket is neutral.
2. Insert and tighten screws.

NOTE: Two kinds of T25 Torx screws are provided. The shoulder screws that fasten the rail
channels to the inside of the rack are longer and have flat (not rounded) screwheads (see
"Installing a 2U Rail Shelf" (page 61)
The shorter screws with rounded screwheads are for the middle support bracket.
