Chapter 2: Server Installation

2-5

Installing the Outer Rails

Begin by measuring the distance from the front rail to the rear rail of the rack.

Attach a short bracket to the front side of the right outer rail and a long bracket

to the rear side of the right outer rail. Adjust both the short and long brackets to

the proper distance so that the rail can ﬁ t snugly into the rack. Secure the short

bracket to the front side of the outer rail with two M4 screws and the long bracket

to the rear side of the outer rail with three M4 screws. Repeat these steps for the

left outer rail. See Figure 2-2.

Locking Tabs

Both chassis rails have a locking tab, which serves two functions. The ﬁ rst is to

lock the server into place when installed and pushed fully into the rack, which is

its normal position. Secondly, these tabs also lock the server in place when fully

extended from the rack. This prevents the server from coming completely out of

the rack when you pull it out for servicing.
