Do not lift the disk shelf by the handles on the power supply with fan modules; they are not
■
designed to take the weight.
Prerequisites
Refer to the following section for an overview of your disk shelf.
Disk Shelf Overview
■
Tools and Equipment Needed
To install the shelf, you need the following tools:
Phillips head No. 2 screwdriver that is a minimum of 4 inches long.
■
A mechanical lift is highly recommended because the chassis can weigh approximately 110
■
lbs (50 kg). At least three people are required: two to install the shelf and one spotter to
engage the rails.<br />If a mechanical lift is not available, remove the power supply with fan
modules to reduce the weight, see Disk Shelf Maintenance Procedures for instructions.
Use one of the following racks for the disk shelf:
Sun Rack II 1042/1242 cabinet
■
Any 19-inch wide, 4-post, EIA-compatible rack or cabinet with a front-to-back depth
■
between vertical cabinet rails of 61 cm to 91 cm (24 in. to 36 in.). The cabinet can have
threaded or unthreaded cabinet rails. Threaded cabinets must be M6 or 10-32 cabinets.
Cabinets must be able to support the weight of all equipment contained within them.
Position the rack where the shelf is to be installed adjacent to the rack where the controller is
installed, if separate. Stabilize the cabinet and lock the casters. To facilitate access, remove doors
from cabinets.
