M6 or 10-32 cabinets. Cabinets must be able to support the weight of all equipment
contained within them.
Use one of the following racks for a Sun Disk Shelf:
Note:
Position the rack where the shelf is to be installed adjacent to the rack where the
controller is installed, if separate. Stabilize the cabinet and lock the casters.
• Sun Rack 900/1000 cabinet
• Sun Fire cabinet
• Sun StorEdge Expansion cabinet
• Sun Rack II 1042/1242 cabinet
• Any 19-inch wide, 4-post, EIA-compatible rack or cabinet with a front-to-back depth
between vertical cabinet rails of 61 cm to 91 cm (24 in. to 36 in.). The cabinet can have
threaded or unthreaded cabinet rails.
To install a disk shelf, you need the following tools:
• A Phillips-head No. 2 screwdriver that is a minimum of 4 inches long.
• A T20 Torx driver, if using a threaded cabinet (Oracle Storage Drive Enclosure DE2-24P).
• A mechanical lift is highly recommended because the chassis can be too heavy to lift
otherwise. At least three people are required: two to install the shelf and one spotter to
engage the rails.
Note:
For Oracle Storage Drive Enclosure DEx-24 disk shelves, if a mechanical lift is
not available, you can remove the power supply with fan modules to reduce the
weight. For instructions, refer to
Storage Appliance Customer Service Manual, Release OS8.8.x.
• A flashlight for the spotter to ensure the shelf is engaged in the rails.
To install a controller, you need the following tools:
• No. 2 Phillips screwdriver
• ESD mat and grounding strap
• Pencil, stylus, or other pointed device, for pushing front panel buttons
• Optional mechanical lift
You also need a system console device, such as one of the following:
• Workstation
• ASCII terminal
• Terminal server
• Patch panel connected to a terminal server
