5 Preparing to install rack
components
This chapter describes how to prepare the PRIMECENTER M1 19-inch rack to
install rack components. Refer to the appropriate delivery documentation (i.e.
Quick Start Guide) for information on how to mount the components
themselves.
The rack has three areas in which components can be mounted:
– the 19-inch area with 16/24/42 HU, which is accessible from the front and is
used for mounting the rack components horizontally.
– only for 700 mm racks:
the optional expansion area with 1 x 2 HU, 2 x 2 HU and 3 x 2 HU, which is
accessible from the front and is used for mounting the rack components
vertically.
– the 19-inch area, which is accessible from the rear and is used for mounting
the rack components horizontally if not already occupied by other
components.
Before you prepare the PRIMECENTER M1 19-inch rack and start mounting
components, you should use the SystemArchitect (see next paragraph). Also
observe the information in the
section "Notes on mounting the rack
components" on page 19 .
V
CAUTION!
Make sure the floor at the final place of installation has sufficient load-
bearing capacity!
The configuration tool "SystemArchitect"
The SystemArchitect is used as an aid for configuring the PRIMECENTER M1
19-inch rack.
Before you start mounting components in the PRIMECENTER M1 19-inch rack,
you should identify the positions for mounting the individual components in the
rack according to the configuration generated using the SystemArchitect and, if
available, the assembly aid supplied with the component.
