Installing The Rack Rails; Installing The Server Into The Rack - Supermicro AS-2020A-8R User Manual

A+ Server 2020A-8R User's Manual

Installing the Rack Rails:

Determine where you want to place the 2020A-8R in the rack (see Rack and Server
Precautions in Section 2-3). Position the fi xed rack rail/sliding rail guide assemblies
at the desired location in the rack, keeping the sliding rail guide facing the inside
of the rack. Screw the assembly securely to the rack using the brackets provided.
Attach the other assembly to the other side of the rack, making sure both are at the
exact same height and with the rail guides facing inward (see Figure 2-3).

Installing the Server into the Rack

You should now have rails attached to both the chassis and the rack unit. The next
step is to install the server into the rack. Do this by lining up the rear of the chas-
sis rails with the front of the rack rails. Slide the chassis rails into the rack rails,
keeping the pressure even on both sides (you may have to depress the locking
tabs when inserting). See Figure 2-4.
When the server has been pushed completely into the rack, you should hear the
locking tabs "click". Finish by inserting and tightening the thumbscrews that hold
the front of the server to the rack.
