Stabilize the Rack for Installation
 | Caution - To reduce the risk of personal injury, stabilize the rack cabinet, and extend all anti-tilt devices before installing the server. |
Refer to your rack documentation for detailed instructions for the following steps.
-
Open and remove the front and rear doors from the rack cabinet.
Note - The front and rear doors need to be removed only if they impinge on the mounting bay. - To prevent the rack cabinet from tipping during the installation, fully extend the rack cabinet's anti-tilt legs or anti-tilt bar, which are located at the bottom front of the rack cabinet.
-
If there are leveling feet beneath the rack cabinet to prevent it from
rolling, extend these leveling feet fully downward to the floor.
Caution - When moving the rack to a new location, including repacking, verify that the leveling feet are up before moving the rack.
-
After the cabinet is installed in its location, you can use the shipping
brackets to secure the cabinet to the floor.
Caution - Shipping brackets are not for use for bracing or anchoring the rack during seismic events.
