Note: Both chassis rails have a locking tab, which serves two functions. The first is to lock the
server into place when installed and pushed fully into the rack, which is its normal position.
Secondly, these tabs also lock the server in place when fully extended from the rack. This
prevents the server from coming completely out of the rack when you pull it out for servicing.
2.4 Installing the Server into a Rack
Installing to a Standard Rack
You should now have rails attached to both the chassis and the rack. The next step is to
install the server into the rack.
1. Line up the rear of the chassis rails with the front of the rack rails.
2. Slide the chassis rails into the rack rails, keeping the pressure even on both sides (you
may have to press the locking tabs when inserting). See Figure 2-2.
3. When the server has been pushed completely into the rack, you should hear the locking
tabs "click".
