Standard Installation Procedure
Positioning the Library
The library can be ordered for either desktop or rack installation.
Desktop Installation
WARNING:
Possible personal injury: Check the path to the intended location and
clear it of obstructions before you move the library. Use at least two
people and a mechanical device to lift and position the library. The
library weighs 44.45 kg (98 lb) plus the weight of the drives. Depending
upon the drive type, each drive weighs between 5.0 kg (11 lb) and 5.5 kg
(12 lb).
ADVERTENCIA:
Posibilidad de lesiones físicas: Antes de mover la biblioteca, verifique el
trayecto hasta la ubicación de instalación prevista y retire cualquier
obstáculo. Para levantar la biblioteca y colocarla en su posición se
requieren como mínimo dos personas. La biblioteca pesa 44,45 kg (98
lb), a lo que hay que añadir el peso de las unidades. En función del tipo
de unidad, cada unidad pesa entre 5,0 kg (11 lb) y 5,5 kg (12 lb).
CAUTION:
Equipment damage: Do not grip the library by the power supply handles
or by the fans.
To install the desktop library:
1. Place the library on any sturdy desk or table within cabling distance to your client-
server computer.
2. Install the drive trays, if they were not shipped with the library.
See “Installing the Drives” on page 1-26.
Rack Installation
Use a standard 483-mm (19-in.) rack with 10 rack units of space to accommodate the
library, which sits on brackets or a tray provided by the customer. The library is secured
to the rack with screws and nut clips to prevent anyone from pulling the library off the
rack.
The rack can have a rear door. The door must extend at least 102 mm (4 in.) beyond the
library to allow proper air flow for the library’s cooling fans and for cable routing. The
maximum rack air ambient temperature is 40ºC (104ºF).
To allow easy access to the CAP and operator panel, the rack should not have a front
door. If you install a front door, make sure that the door provides proper ventilation.
