Remove the Server From the 4-Post, 19-inch Rack
The steps to remove the server from a 4-post, 19-inch rack depend on the
type of rack or rail kit. The server is hard mounted with the hardmount rack
kit, or the server is mounted with a sliding rail kit.
-
Support the weight of the server for removal.
-
For the hardmount rack kit, remove the two screws securing each rear
mount support bracket.
-
For both types of kits, remove the two screws securing each hardmount
bracket at the front of the rack.
-
For the sliding rail kit, extend the server to the locked position,
and then, press the Release buttons on the rails to pull the server out
of the rack.
-
Lift the server from the rack and set it aside on an antistatic
mat.
