To install the VessRAID subsystem into a rack with the optional mounting rails:
1. Check the fit of the mounting rails in your rack system.
2. Adjust the length of the mounting rails as needed.
3. Attach the mounting rail assemblies to the outside of the rack posts, using
the attaching screws from your rack system.
Be sure the support is on the bottom facing inward.
4. Square the rail assemblies in the rack.
5. Tighten the adjustment screws and the attaching screws.
• At least two persons are required to safely lift, place, and
attach the VessRAID subsystem into a rack system.
• Do not lift or move the VessRAID subsystem by the handles,
power supplies or the controller units. Hold the subsystem
itself.
• Only a qualified technician who is familiar with the installation
procedure should mount and install the VessRAID subsystem.
• Be sure all switches are OFF before installing the VessRAID
subsystem or exchanging components.
