Use this procedure to install the server chassis, with mounting brackets, into the slide rail assemblies that are mounted to the rack.
Caution - This procedure requires a minimum of two people because of the weight of the server. Attempting this procedure alone could result in equipment damage or personal injury. |
Caution - Always load equipment into a rack from the bottom up so that the rack will not become top-heavy and tip over. Extend the rack's anti-tip bar or anti-tilt legs to prevent the rack from tipping during equipment installation. See Stabilize the Rack for more information. |
Caution - When inserting the server into the slide rail, ensure that both the top and bottom mounting lips of the mounting brackets are inserted into the slide rail. The server should slide forward and backward easily if correctly installed. If the unit does not slide easily, ensure that each mounting lip is inserted properly. If the mounting brackets are not inserted properly, the unit might fall when it is removed from the rack. |
Continue pushing until the slide rail locks (on the front of the mounting brackets) engage the slide rail assemblies. You will hear an audible click.
Caution - Verify that the server is securely mounted in the rack and that the slide rail locks are engaged with the mounting brackets before continuing. |
