Mounting Your Server Into A Cabinet - Gateway E-9525R User Manual

Mounting your server into a cabinet

Before attaching cabinet accessories,
make sure that the server is turned off
and all power cords are unplugged.
The cabinet must provide sufficient
airflow to the front of the server to
maintain correct cooling.
Important
The example shown is an E-9425R server,
but the setup instructions are the same
for this server.
Uninterruptible power supplies
Use an uninterruptible power supply (UPS) to protect your server from data loss
during a total power failure. A UPS uses a battery to keep your server running
temporarily during a power failure and lets you save your work and shut down
your server. You cannot run your server for an extended period of time while
using only the UPS. To buy a UPS, visit accessories.gateway.com.
Caution
The fixed-rail cabinet mounting hardware included with your server should be
used with standard 4-post cabinets that have front and back vertical posts. If
your cabinet is a different type, obtain mounting hardware from the cabinet
manufacturer.
