SUPERSERVER 7047R-TRF USER'S MANUAL
Reliable Ground
A reliable ground must be maintained at all times. To ensure this, the rack
itself should be grounded. Particular attention should be given to power supply
connections other than the direct connections to the branch circuit (i.e. the use of
power strips, etc.).
2-5 Installing the System into a Rack
This section provides information on installing the system into a rack unit. Rack
installation requires the use of the optional rackmount kit. If the system has already
been mounted into a rack or if you are using it as a tower, you can skip ahead to
Sections 2-5 and 2-6.
There are a variety of rack units on the market, which may mean the assembly
procedure will differ slightly. The following is a guideline for installing the server into
a rack with the rack rails provided in the rackmount kit. You should also refer to the
installation instructions that came with the rack unit you are using.
Warning: Do not pick up the server with 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 fl oor before you slide the unit out for servicing. Failure
to stabilize the rack can cause the rack to tip over.
Warning: When initially installing the server to a rack, test that the rail locking tabs
engage to prevent the server from being overextended. Have a rack lift in place as
a precaution in case the test fails.
Warning: In any instance of pulling the system from the rack, always use a rack
lift and follow all associated safety precautions.
Identifying the Sections of the Rack Rails
The optional rackmount kit includes two rack rail assemblies. Each of these
assemblies consist of three sections: an inner fi xed chassis rail that secures to
the chassis, an outer rack rail that secures directly to the rack itself and two rail
brackets, which also attack to the rack (see Figure 2-1.) The inner and outer rails
must be detached from each other to install.
To remove the inner chassis rail, pull it out as far as possible - you should hear a
"click" sound as a locking tab emerges from inside the rail assembly and locks the
inner rail. Depress the locking tab to pull the inner rail completely out. Do this for
both assemblies (one for each side).
