Verify Operation of Slide-Rails and CMA
This procedure provides instructions for verfiying that the slide-rails and CMA
are operating correctly.
Note -
Use two people for this procedure: one person to move the server in and out of
the rack and another person to observe the cables and CMA.
-
Slowly pull the server out of the rack until the slide-rails reach their stops.
-
Inspect the attached cables for any binding or kinks.
-
Verify that the CMA extends fully from the slide-rails.
-
Push the server back into the rack, as described in the following sub-steps.
When the server is fully extended, you must release two sets of slide-rail stops to return the
server to the rack:
-
For the first set of stops, push in both green levers simultaneously and slide the server
toward the rack.
The first set of stops are levers are located on the inside of each slide-rail, just behind
the back panel of the server.
-
Verify that the cables and the CMA retract without binding.
-
For the second set of stops, simultaneously push both of the green slide-rail release buttons,
and push the server completely into the rack until both slide-rail locks engage.
The second set of stops are the slide-rail release buttons, located at the front of the
server.
-
Adjust the cable straps and CMA, as required.
