Install The Slide Assemblies Into The Rack Enclosure - Sun Microsystems Fire 280R Setup And Rackmounting Manual

Install the Slide Assemblies Into the Rack
Enclosure
You can either count the rack rail holes or use the Rack Buddy to make sure that
each slide assembly is installed at the same height front-to-back and side-to-side in
the rack. See Step 5 of "Prepare the Rack Enclosure" on page 9 for more information
about using the Rack Buddy.
Before you begin the installation:
Complete "Prepare the Rack Enclosure" on page 9.
If this is the first system you are installing into the rack enclosure, use holes 9 and
10 or 11 (this assumes that an AC power sequencer occupies holes 1 through 6 in
the bottom of the rack).
Install the slide assemblies into the lowest available position.
Install additional servers from the base up in the rack enclosure.
1. If necessary, adjust the back mounting bracket forward or backward on the slide
assembly to accommodate the depth of the rack.
Use the depth you measured in Step 4 of "Prepare the Rack Enclosure" on page 9.
2. Secure the slide bracket assemblies to the front and back mounting rails using
Phillips 10-32 panhead screws.
Use the holes you marked in Step 5 of "Prepare the Rack Enclosure" on page 9. Do
not completely tighten the screws until after the server is installed. Ensure that all
the screws are in place, and that the slide assemblies are secure and level.
a. Attach one slide assembly to the right rack mounting rail, and the other slide
assembly to the left rack mounting rail. See the next figure.
b. With the help of an assistant, position each slide assembly on the inside of the
rack enclosure with the front (short) mounting bracket at the front of the rack.
