36 SAN Switch 2/32 Version 4.1.x Installation Guide
Attaching the Outer Slide Rails to the HP 9000 Series Rack
Use the following steps to install the outer slide rails in the HP 9000 Series Rack.
Note: This procedure requires two technicians to properly align the outer slide rails in
the HP 9000 Series Rack.
Obtain the following items located in the Rack Mount Kit:
■ Four 3-hole bar nuts
■ Eight Phillips head 8-32 x 3/8 screws
■ Eight square alignment washers
■ # 2 Phillips screwdriver with torque capability
Note: Before starting this procedure, verify that two of the slide mount L-brackets are
preinstalled at the end of each outer slide rail; see Figure 6. The L-brackets are
necessary to attach the outer rails to the rack.
1. Determine the appropriate placement for the switch inside the rack. The HP
9000 Series Rack’s rails are divided into Units. Each Unit is marked with a
small, round hole and three square openings for mounting equipment.
Note: The SAN Switch 2/32 requires 1.5 Units of rack space.
2. Locate the small, round marker hole on the rack’s rails, which coincides with
the location selected in step 1. Each marker hole delineates the beginning of
one U.
3. Insert one square alignment washer on each of the
eight 10-32 x 3/8 Phillips
screws.
Note: The square alignment washers are mandatory for proper switch alignment.
4. Adjust the outer slide rail’s length to fit the length of the rack.
