Support rails and enclosures
Storwize V5000 Gen2 systems use the same rails and enclosures for both control
and expansion enclosures. All Storwize V5000 Gen2 models use the same
expansion enclosure.
v The ledge on the inside of each rail supports the entire length of an enclosure.
v The enclosure support rails capture the left and right rear edges of an inserted
enclosure. This prevents the installed enclosure bouncing when the rack is
subjected to quake or vibration.
v The enclosure support rails adjust to fit racks from 595 mm to 755 mm deep,
measured between the front and rear rack rails.
