Server setup

Installing the server into the rack

Follow the steps in this section if you are installing the server into a rack with square
holes. If you are installing the server into a rack with round holes, order the
appropriate rack installation option kit, and then refer to the installation instructions
that ship with the option kit for more information.
If you are installing the server into a telco rack, order the appropriate option kit at the
RackSolutions.com website. Follow the server-specific instructions on the website to
install the rack brackets. After installing the brackets, follow the steps in this section.
WARNING: When installing the server in a telco rack, be sure that the rack
frame is adequately secured to the top and bottom of the building structure.
1. Mark the rack.
WARNING: Always plan the rack installation so that the heaviest item is on the
bottom of the rack. Install the heaviest item first, and continue to populate the
rack from the bottom to the top.
