Chapter 2: Install the server components 12
Each server is 2U. Ensure the rack has sufficient space for all systems.
For full power redundancy across all servers, you need a rack with two power distribution units (PDU) feeding
separate outlet strips, with sufficient vacant outlets on each strip.
Ensure the rack is installed and stabilized or bayed according to the manufacturer's instructions.
WARNING:
When servicing a server in a rack, extend only one server at a time to prevent the rack from tipping.
Rack installation guidelines
There are guidelines to help you successfully install each server in a rack.
Follow all safety guidelines stated in the documentation that came with the rack, particularly when installing
components into the locations at the top of the rack.
Ensure the rack meets the requirements.
