SAN Director 2/128 Installation Guide
Finalizing the Rack Mount Procedure
Read these sections to install the SAN Director 2/128 into the HP 10,000 series,
HP System\e or comparable EIA cabinet.
WARNING:
A fully populated SAN Director 2/128 weighs approximately
250 lbs and requires a minimum of two people and a hydraulic or assisted lift
to install it.
Before installing, verify that the additional weight of the chassis does not
exceed the rackĀ³s weight limits or unbalance the rack, including when some of
the cards or power supplies are partially extended out of the chassis.
Sliding the Switch into the Rack
1.
Before lifting the chassis into the rack, determine an easy access route for
cables or cords. Make sure that cables do not get pinned under the weight of
the chassis.
2.
Position the lift device next to the SAN Director 2/128.
3.
Position one technician at the front of the chassis, and the second technician at
the rear of the chassis. Carefully move the chassis onto the lift device.
4.
Use the lift-assist device to raise the chassis until the bottom of the chassis is
level with the shelf-like surfaces of the rack mount shelf brackets.
5.
Slide the chassis onto the two rack mount shelf brackets.
Securing the Chassis to the Rails
1.
Attach the two flat upper rack mount brackets (that you installed on the
chassis earlier) to the two L-shaped brackets installed onto the rack rails. Use
the two screws set aside in
step 1
of the section
Attaching the Upper Rack
Mount Bracket Assemblies to the Chassis
on page 50. See
