Installing the replacement chassis
CAUTION:
A fully populated DC SAN Director (eight FC8-48 port cards, 384 ports) weighs approximately 104
kg (228 lbs) and requires a hydraulic or assisted lift to install it.
If the DC SAN Director is installed in a cabinet, ensure that the cabinet is balanced and secured
mechanically and that the removal and installation procedure will not compromise cabinet stability.
1.
If the chassis is in a cabinet, remove it from the cabinet, remove the rack mount hardware, and
save the hardware for use with the new chassis.
2.
Place the chassis on a lift or on the shipping pallet provided with the original chassis.
3.
Unpack the new chassis:
a.
Cut the bands that encircle the packaging.
b.
Remove the lid and the kits and foam from the top of the chassis.
c.
Lift the cardboard box off the chassis and remove the plastic bag from around the chassis.
Save the packing materials for use when returning the old chassis.
d.
Leave the chassis on top of the plastic shipping tray if the chassis must be transported to the
installation location.
4.
Use a pallet jack or other assisted lift to transport the new chassis to the installation area. Doorways
must be wider than 36 in. (91 cm) to accommodate the chassis on the pallet.
