Figure 15 shows the support rail assembly for the DS5100 and DS5300.
Complete the following steps to install the support rails:
Note:
Refer to Figure 15 while performing these steps.
1. Ensure that the rack cabinet has already been installed.
2. Ensure that a stabilizer has been correctly attached to the bottom front of the
rack cabinet to prevent the rack cabinet from tipping forward while the DS5100
and DS5300 is being installed.
Refer to the installation and service guide, or equivalent, for the rack cabinet
as required.
3. If you have not yet done so, remove the mounting rails, mounting hardware,
and line jumper cords from the DS5100 and DS5300 shipping box, which is on
the bottom of the shipping box beneath the DS5100 and DS5300 chassis. Do
not remove the DS5100 and DS5300 from the shipping box at this time.
Attention:
The mounting rails, mounting hardware, and line jumper cords
may be packed beneath the DS5100 and DS5300 in the shipping box. To
remove these items from the shipping box without first removing the DS5100
and DS5300, open the two long sides of the shipping box. Then open and fold
flat the two short sides of the shipping box. This enables you to access the
mounting rails, mounting hardware, and line jumper cords without first
removing the DS5100 and DS5300 from the shipping box.
4. Locate the two support rails and six of the eight M5 screws that are supplied
with the DS5100 and DS5300.
5. The rack-mounted unit is four EIA units high. Decide accordingly where you
are going to install the support rails.
Attention:
Use the rack mounting templates in this chapter or in Appendix C,
“Rack mounting templates,” on page 225 to locate the proper rack mounting
holes for installing the support rails into the rack cabinet.
Note the following considerations before you choose where to install the rails:
v
Plan the installation so that each DS5100 and DS5300 subsystem and its
associated storage expansion enclosures are mounted together in the same
rack, or in adjacent racks if necessary.
