2.5 Installing the Server
Once rails are attached to the chassis and the rack, you can install the server.
Installing the Chassis into a Rack
Caution: The assembled system may weigh over 100 lbs. Use a lift and multiple people to
move it. Remove the carrier board tray before installing into the rack to reduce the weight
of the system.
1. If you want to install the optional chassis handles, use screws including a thumbscrew,
through the bottom hole of each handle. Note: These handles need only be installed
when mounting the system into a short rack. When mounting into a deep rack, they are
unnecessary and regular screws should be used instead of thumbscrews.
2. Using a lift and as many people as necessary, lift the system and slide it onto the
installed rails.
Note: The figure is for illustrative purposes only. Some chassis components such as the
carrier board tray may be removed from the chassis enclosure before installing the system
to the rack. For details on removing the carrier board, please refer to 3.6.
