Installing the System into a Rack

This section provides information on installing the SuperServer 5016I-T/5016I-TF
into a rack unit. 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. The following is a guideline
for installing the unit into a rack with the rack rails provided with the system. 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 with the SuperServer 5016I-
T/5016I-TF. Each of these assemblies consist of two sections: an inner fi xed chas-
sis rail that secures to the unit (A) and an outer fi xed rack rail (B) that secures to
the rail brackets. A sliding rail guide sandwiched between the two should remain
attached to the fi xed rack rail (see Figure 2-1). The A and B rails must be detached
from each other to install.
To remove the fi xed chassis rail (A), pull it out as far as possible - you should hear
a "click" sound as a locking tab emerges from inside the rail assembly and locks
the inner rail. Then depress the locking tab to pull the inner rail completely out. Do
this for both the left and right side rack rail assemblies.
