Installing support rails for the IBM Storage ScaleSystem Utility Node (IBM
SSR task)
Before you install the utility node, you must rst install the support rails for it.
To install the support rails on an IBM Storage ScaleSystem Utility Node, follow steps 1 - 3 of the
“Mounting the MTM 5149 - 23E server chassis in a rack” on page 53 procedure.
Installing enclosures (IBM SSR task)
Following your enclosure location plan, install the utility node system.
CAUTION:
• To lift a utility node requires at least two people. To reduce the enclosure weight to permit one
person to safely lift the enclosure, you must temporarily remove the server canisters, power
supply units, and all drives from the enclosure.
• Install a utility node only onto the utility node rails supplied with the enclosure.
• Load the rack from the bottom up to ensure rack stability. Empty the rack from the top down.
To install an enclosure, complete the following steps:
1. Align the enclosure both horizontally and square to the rails, while facing the front of the utility node as
shown in the following gure.
Figure 36. Aligning the enclosure
2. Ensure that the ball bearing retainers are at the front of the left and right cabinet member rails. This is
followed by an audible click.
3. Insert each inner rail into the rack cabinet as shown in the following gure.
