Server modules and enclosures that are returned unracked may have the
inner mounting rails still attached to them, or the rails may come already
detached. If the rails have already been detached, they may come separate
from or already inserted into the outer mounting rails. If the rails come
separated, you need to insert the inner rails into the outer rails.
In any case, before you pack the server modules, you need to remove the
internal components from them.
If the S30 Node was returned racked, the PDUs for the S30 Node may also
be installed in the rack (or racks). In this case, you need to remove the PDUs
from the rack.
Important: To prevent a rack from becoming top-heavy, be sure to
unrack the server modules and enclosures in it from the top down.
