Dell ML6020 CM:
Rack Installation
This document discusses the procedure to install a ML6020 14U library in a rack.
Other documents about this library do not include information about the 14U
library being pre-assembled, which greatly simplifies the installation of the
ML6020 14U library in a rack.
Refer to the Dell™ PowerVault™ ML6000 Tape Library User’s Guide to perform
this procedure.
Installing a 14U Library in a Rack
The steps below describe modifications to the procedure “Installing the Library
in a Rack” which will make installing the 14U library in a rack easier. Read this
procedure before unpacking the library because the shipping restraints are left
in place to simplify installation.
Note: This procedure assumes that you are installing a new library in a rack.
Do not take apart the 5U and 9U modules for this procedure, and do not
remove the shipping restraints. Leave the 14U library intact and the shipping
restraints in place.
1 Unpack the library from the shipping carton. Leave the orange robot
shipping restraint and the magazine shipping restraint in place until this
procedure directs you to remove it.
2 Follow the instructions for “Preparing for Installation” in the User’s Guide.
3 Follow the instructions for “Installing the Rack-mount Shelves” in the User’s
Guide.
