Installing the storage processor enclosure
Do not lift the SPE by its I/O module handles. Use two people to lift the SPE on each
side.
The storage processor enclosure (SPE) is 4U in height. It goes into the next available
space in the adjustable rails.
Procedure
1. Look for the Product ID/SN on the product serial number tag (PSNT) located on the
back of the SPE as shown in Figure 14 on page 30.
2. Record this number to use when you register the product during system setup
installation steps.

Be careful when you slide the enclosure into the rails. The PSNT tag on the back of the
enclosure can inadvertently become jammed, cut off, or block the enclosure seating.
