Mounting VessRAID in a Rack
The VessRAID subsystem installs to the rack using the available mounting rails.
You can also use your existing rails.
Figure 7. VessRAID mounted in a rack with the available rails
To install the VessRAID subsystem into a rack with the available mounting rails:
1. Check the fit of the mounting rails in your rack system.
2. Adjust the length of the mounting rails as needed.
Cautions
• At least two persons are required to safely lift, place, and
attach the VessRAID subsystem into a rack system.
• Do not lift or move the VessRAID subsystem by the handles,
power supplies or the controller units. Hold the subsystem
itself.
• Only a qualified electrician who is familiar with the installation
procedure should mount and install the VessRAID subsystem.
• Be sure all switches are OFF before installing the VessRAID
subsystem or exchanging components.
