Determining and marking the location in the rack

You might need to determine where to install the system unit into the rack.
To determine where to install the system unit into a rack, complete the following steps:
1. Read the Rack safety notices (http://www.ibm.com/support/knowledgecenter/POWER8/p8hbf/
racksafety.htm).
2. Determine where to place the system unit in the rack. As you plan for installing the system unit in a
rack, consider the following information:
v Organize larger and heavier units into the lower part of the rack.
v Plan to install units into the lower part of the rack first.
v Record the Electronic Industries Alliance (EIA) locations in your plan.
Note: This server is four EIA units high. An EIA unit is 44.45 mm (1.75 in.) in height. The rack
contains three mounting holes for each EIA unit of height. This system unit therefore, is 177.8 mm (7
in.) high and covers 12 mounting holes in the rack.
3. If necessary, remove the filler panels to allow access to the inside of the rack enclosure where you
plan to place the unit, as shown in For details, see Figure 1 on page 3.
