2.3 Installing the Rails

There are a variety of rack units on the market, which may require a slightly different assembly
procedure.
The following is a basic guideline for installing the system into a rack with the rack mounting
hardware provided. You should also refer to the installation instructions that came with the
specific rack you are using.

Identifying the Rails

The chassis package includes two rail assemblies in the rack mounting kit. Each assembly
consists of three sections: An inner chassis rail which secures directly to the chassis, an
outer rail that secures to the rack, and a middle rail which extends from the outer rail. These
assemblies are specifically designed for the left and right side of the chassis.

Locking Tabs

Each inner rail has a locking tab. This tab locks the chassis into place when installed and
pushed fully into the rack. These tabs also lock the chassis in place when fully extended
from the rack. This prevents the server from coming completely out of the rack when when
the chassis is pulled out for servicing.

Slide rail mounted equipment is not to be used as a shelf or a work space.
Warning: do not pick up the server with the front handles. They are designed to pull
the system from a rack only.
