Learn how to install the system into the rack by using the slide rails.
About this task
Note: This system requires two people to install the system into the rack.
Procedure
1. Remove the shipping cover on the rear and the front of the system, if present.
2. Extend the slide rails forward (1) until they click twice into place. Carefully lift the server and tilt it
into position over the slide rails so that the rear nail heads (2) on the server line up with the rear slots
(3) on the slide rails. Slide the server down until the rear nail heads slip into the two rear slots. Then,
slowly lower the front of the server (4) until the other nail heads slip into the other slots on the slide
rails. Ensure that the front latch (5) slides over the nail heads.
