Sliding the Chassis onto the Rack Rails
Installing the Chassis into a Rack
1. Align 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. The
spring latch engages when the chassis is part way in. Push the server completely into
the rack.
3. (Optional) Insert and tighten the thumbscrews that hold the front of the server to the
rack.
Figure 2-4. Installing the Server into a Rack
Note: The figure above is for illustrative purposes only. Always install servers at the bottom
of the rack first.
Warning: Do not pick up the server with the front handles. They are designed to pull
the system from a rack only.
