Rack Installation

5-1 Overview

This chapter provides a quick setup checklist to get your chassis up and running.

Following these steps in the order given should enable you to have the system

operational within a minimum amount of time.

5-2 Unpacking the System

You should inspect the box the chassis was shipped in and note if it was damaged

in any way. If the chassis itself shows damage you should le a damage claim with

the carrier who delivered it.

Decide on a suitable location for the rack unit that will hold your chassis. It should

be situated in a clean, dust-free area that is well ventilated. Avoid areas where

heat, electrical noise and electromagnetic elds are generated. You will also need

it placed near a grounded power outlet. Be sure to read the Rack and Server Pre-

cautions in the next section.

5-3 Preparing for Setup

The box your chassis was shipped in should include two sets of rail assemblies,

two rail mounting brackets and the mounting screws you will need to install the

system into the rack. Read this section in its entirety before you begin the installa-

tion procedure outlined in the sections that follow.

Choosing a Setup Location

Leave enough clearance in front of the rack to enable you to open the front •

door completely (~25 inches).

Leave approximately 30 inches of clearance in the back of the rack to allow for •

sufcient airow and ease in servicing.
