Installing the System into a Rack

This section provides information on installing the system into a rack unit with the
rack rails provided. If the system has already been mounted into a rack, you can
skip ahead to Sections 2-5 and 2-6. There are a variety of rack units on the market,
which may mean the assembly procedure will differ slightly. You should also refer
to the installation instructions that came with the rack unit you are using.
Identifying the Sections of the Rack Rails
You should have received two rack rail assemblies in the rack mounting kit. Each
assembly consists of two sections: an inner fi xed chassis rail that secures directly
to the server chassis and an outer fi xed rack rail that secures directly to the rack
itself (see Figure 2-1). Two pairs of short brackets to be used on the front side of
the outer rails are also included.

Installing the Inner Rails

Both the left and right side inner rails have been pre-attached to the chassis.
Proceed to the next step. A
