EMC VNXe2 Series VNXe3200 Installation Guide
Among the DPE components is a rail kit. The rail kit will contain either a set of snap-in
rails or a set of adjustable rails. Either set of rails can be used. To install the rails, follow
the instructions that are specific to the type of rails in the kit.
Before you begin
Install the DPE rails first, at the bottom of the space reserved for the system in your
cabinet. The DPE box provides a set of adjustable rails and one bag of screws for the
installation. Those screws are used for both the installation of the rails and attaching the
enclosure to the cabinet. Refer to
Note
The front edge of each rail is stamped L or R for left or right side when the rail faces the
cabinet front.
Procedure
1. Locate the 2U adjustable rail kit for the DPE, and identify the rails.
The left rail for the DPE has an electronic connector for the bezel protruding from the
front face.
2. From the front of the cabinet, insert the rail alignment pins into the rear cabinet
channel so that the pins are in the appropriate holes above the bottom U mark for the
2U space for the DPE.
Left rail: Alignment pin goes in the 3rd hole from the bottom U mark
l
Right rail: Alignment pin goes in the 4th hole from the bottom U mark
l
3. Extend the left adjustable rail so that it reaches the front channel of the cabinet and
carefully ensure that the electronic connector aligns with and extends through a hole
in the cabinet channel. Check the alignment of the rail to ensure that the front of the
rail is level with the back. Once you are satisfied with the alignment, insert one screw
from the front of the cabinet into the rail's threaded screw hole. .
4. Insert, extend, and attach the right rail in a similar fashion. Secure it to the front
channel using one screw.
5. Secure the rails to the rear channel using two screws (each side), leaving them loose
enough for adjustment when you install the DPE on the rails.
