Rack Installation Instructions
Review the documentation that comes with your rack cabinet for safety and cabling information. Before
installing your server in a rack cabinet, review the following guidelines:
v Make sure that the room air temperature is below 35°C (95°F).
v Do not block any air vents; usually, 15 cm (6 in.) of air space in the rear and 5 cm (2 in.) in the front
provides proper airflow.
v Plan the device installation starting at the bottom of the rack cabinet.
v Install the heaviest device in the bottom of the rack cabinet.
v Do not extend more than one device out of the rack cabinet at the same time.
v Remove the rack doors and side panels to provide easier access during installation.
v Connect the server to a properly grounded outlet.
v Do not overload the power outlet when installing multiple devices in the rack cabinet.
v The slide rails in this kit come preset to the correct length for installation in an IBM rack cabinet, and
they are adjustable for other rack cabinets.
v The slide rails are marked (RIGHT/FRONT and LEFT/FRONT) for proper placement on the
rack-cabinet flanges.
