Installing the Chassis Rails

Position the fi xed chassis rail sections you just removed along the side of the

6015B-Ni making sure the screw holes line up. Note that these two rails are left/right

specifi c. Screw the rail securely to the side of the chassis (see Figure 2-2). Repeat

this procedure for the other rail on the other side of the chassis. You will also need

to attach the rail brackets when installng into a telco rack.

Locking Tabs: As you have seen, both chassis rails have a locking tab, which

serves two functions. The fi rst is to lock the server into place when installed and

pushed fully into the rack, which is its normal position. Secondly, these tabs also

lock the server in place when fully extended from the rack. This prevents the server

from coming completely out of the rack when you pull it out for servicing.

Figure 2-2. Installing Chassis Rails

Installing the Rack Rails

Determine where you want to place the SuperServer 6015B-Ni in the rack. (See

Rack and Server Precautions in Section 2-3.) Position the fi xed rack rail/sliding rail

guide assemblies at the desired location in the rack, keeping the sliding rail guide

facing the inside of the rack. Screw the assembly securely to the rack using the

brackets provided. Attach the other assembly to the other side of the rack, making

sure both are at the exact same height and with the rail guides facing inward.
