Figure 2-1. Installing the Chassis into a Rack
Note: Figures are for illustrative purposes only. Always install servers into racks
from the bottom up.
Warning: Do not pick up the server by the front handles. They are designed
to pull the system from a rack only.
Stability hazard. The rack stabilizing mechanism must be in place, or the
rack must be bolted to the oor before you slide the unit out for servicing.
Failure to stabilize the rack can cause the rack to tip over.
