v Any rack/cabinet must have stabilization feet or brackets installed, or have another means of preventing
the rack/cabinet from tipping during product operation or service.
Examples of some acceptable alternatives: The rack/cabinet may be securely bolted to the floor, ceiling
or walls, or to adjacent racks/cabinets in a long and heavy row of racks/cabinets.
v It is strongly recommended that the mounting rails that are shipped with the product be used to install it
in the rack.
The mounting rails that ship with IBM products have been designed and tested to safely support the
product during operation and service activities. The mounting rails used on products to be serviced by
IBM must be certified for use with the products by an NRTL to all applicable country safety standards.
Note: IBM requires that mounting rails must be able to support four times the maximum rated product
weight in its worst-case position (fully extended front and rear positions) for 1 full minute without
catastrophic failure.
