Rack safety

Rack installation

DANGER

Always lower the leveling pads on the rack cabinet.

vAlways install stabilizer brackets on the rack cabinet.

vTo avoid hazardous conditions due to uneven mechanical

loading, always install the heaviest devices in the bottom of

the rack cabinet. Always install servers and optional devices

starting from the bottom of the rack cabinets.

vRack-mounted devices are not to be used as ashelf or work

space. Do not place any object on top of rack-mounted

devices.

vEach rack cabinet might have more than one power cord. Be

sure to disconnect all power cords in the rack cabinet before

servicing any device in the rack cabinet.

vConnect all devices installed in arack cabinet to power

devices installed in the same rack cabinet. Do not plug a

power cord from adevice installed in one rack cabinet into a

power device installed in adifferent rack cabinet.

CAUTION:

vDo not install aunit in arack where the internal rack ambient

temperatures will exceed the manufacturer’s recommended

ambient temperature for all your rack-mounted devices.

vDo not install aunit in arack where the air flow is compromised.

Ensure that air flow is not blocked or reduced on any side, front,

or back of aunit used for air flow through the unit.

vConsideration should be given to the connection of the

equipment to the supply circuit so that overloading of the

circuits does not compromise the supply wiring or overcurrent

protection.

vTo provide the correct power connection to arack, refer to the

rating labels located on the equipment in the rack to determine

the total power requirement of the supply circuit.

vThis drawer is afixed drawer and should not be moved for

servicing unless specified by manufacturer. Attempting to move

the drawer partially or completely out of the rack may cause the

CAUTION:

Removing components from the upper positions in the rack cabinet improves

rack stability during relocation. Follow these general guidelines whenever you

relocate apopulated rack cabinet within aroom or building:

vReduce the weight of the rack cabinet by removing equipment starting at

the top of the rack cabinet. When possible, restore the rack cabinet to the

configuration of the rack cabinet as you received it. If this configuration is

not known, you must do the following:

–Remove all devices in the 32U position and above.

–Ensure that the heaviest devices are installed in the bottom of the rack

cabinet.

–Ensure that there are no empty U-levels between devices installed in the

rack cabinet below the 32U level.

–If the rack cabinet you are relocating is part of asuite of rack cabinets,

detach the rack cabinet from the suite.

–Inspect the route that you plan to take when moving the rack to

eliminate potential hazards.

–Verify that the route that you choose can support the weight of the

loaded rack cabinet. Refer to the documentation that came with your

rack cabinet for the weight of aloaded rack cabinet.

–Verify that all door openings are at least 760 x2030 mm (30 x80 in.).

–Ensure that all devices, shelves, drawers, doors, and cables are secure.

–Ensure that the four leveling pads are raised to their highest position.

–Ensure that there is no stabilizer bracket installed on the rack cabinet

during movement.

–Do not use aramp inclined at more than ten degrees.

–Once the rack cabinet is in the new location, do the following:

-Lower the four leveling pads.

-Install stabilizer brackets on the rack cabinet.

-If you removed any devices from the rack cabinet, repopulate the rack

cabinet from the lowest position to the highest position.

–If along distance relocation is required, restore the rack cabinet to the

configuration of the rack cabinet as you received it. Pack the rack

cabinet in the original packaging material, or equivalent. Also, lower the

leveling pads to raise the casters off of the pallet and bolt the rack

cabinet to the pallet.
