Rack Mount Configuration

Your PowerEdge C8000 server enclosure can be mounted in a four-post rack

cabinet.

Installation Guidelines

Use the following safety guidelines to help ensure your own personal safety

and to help protect your system and working environment from potential

damage. See additional safety information included with your system.

WARNING:

Whenever you need to lift the system, get others to assist you. To

avoid injury, do not attempt to lift the system by yourself.

WARNING:

The system is not fixed to the rack or mounted on the rails. To avoid

personal injury or damage to the system, you must adequately support the system
during installation and removal.

WARNING:

To avoid a potential electrical shock hazard, a third wire safety

grounding conductor is necessary for the rack installation. The rack equipment
must provide sufficient airflow to the system to maintain proper cooling.

CAUTION:

Before you install the server enclosure into a rack, it is recommended

that you remove all installed sled modules from the enclosure to reduce weight
and avoid injury.

CAUTION:

To prevent possible damage to the server enclosure surface and sled

modules, always place the server enclosure and sled modules on an antistatic mat
or antistatic foam.

• Prepare an antistatic mat or antistatic foam to set the PowerEdge C8000

server enclosure on during the compute or storage sled removal process.

• Ensure that proper airflow is provided to components in the rack.
