To install the VessJBOD subsystem into a rack with the available mounting rails:
1. Check the fit of the mounting rails in your rack system.
2. Adjust the length of the mounting rails as needed.
• At least two persons are required to safely lift, place, and
attach the VessJBOD subsystem into a rack system.
• Do not lift or move the VessJBOD subsystem by the handles,
power supply or the I/O module. Hold the subsystem itself.
• Only a qualified electrician who is familiar with the installation
procedure should mount and install the VessJBOD
subsystem.
• Be sure all switches are OFF before installing the VessJBOD
subsystem or exchanging components.
