Select the Correct Rackmounting Hardware Installation Instructions

Your server might come with one of two sets of rackmounting hardware. These are:

  • Standard

  • Universal

If you are unsure what rackmounting hardware you have, see Unpacking the Server and Identifying the Rack Mounting Hardware in Sun Server X2-8 (formerly Sun Fire X4800 M2) Installation Guide.

The documentation set includes two documents that provide instructions for installing the rackmounting hardware:

  • Installation Guide (online only)

    The Sun Server X2-8 (formerly Sun Fire X4800 M2) Installation Guide describes how to install both the universal and the standard rackmounting hardware.

  • Rackmounting Hardware Installation Guide (printed and online)

    The Sun Server X2-8 (formerly Sun Fire X4800 M2) Rackmounting Hardware Installation Guide describes how to install both the universal and the standard rackmounting hardware.


    Note -  The Sun Server X2-8 (formerly Sun Fire X4800 M2) Rackmounting Hardware Installation Guide mistakenly says to use M6 x 16 screws to mount the adapter brackets to the rack rails. Instead, use M6 x 12 screws to mount the adapter brackets to the rack rails, unless the rack has 10–32 threads. Then use the 10–32 shoulder screws.
