Install Disk Array Enclosures (DAEs)
All DAEs are optional. Any DAEs should be installed immediately above the DPE.
Install the DAE rails
To install the DAE rails:
1. Locate the 2U adjustable rail kit for the DAE, and identify the left rail (marked with an L on the
front), and the right rail (marked with an R on the front).
2. Insert the alignment pins at the back of the left rail into the rear channel of your cabinet.
3. Extend the adjustable rail so that it reaches the front channel of the cabinet and check the
alignment of the rail to ensure that the front of the rail is level with the back. Once you are
satisfied with the alignment, insert one screw from the front of the cabinet into the rail’s
bottom threaded screw hole as shown in
Figure 5.
4. Insert two retention screws from the back of the cabinet to attach the rail.
5. Repeat steps 2-4 to attach the right DAE rail, making sure that the right rail is level with the left
rail.
