Step 3: Install Mounting Rails

Select the rail kit for the appropriate rack and follow the instructions included with the rail
kit to install the rails in the rack. The following rail kits are available for use with the
controller enclosure:

HP A5250A for legacy HP Racks ((C2785A, C2786A, C2787A A1896A, or A1897A)

HP A5251A for HP Rack System/E

HP 5656A for Rittal 9000 racks

Step 4: Install the Controller Enclosure

Note

Prior to installing the controller enclosure, it may be easier to preform some of
the installation steps described later in this chapter. For example, you may
want to connect the MIA’s, perform the Fibre Channel Host ID switch settings,
and connect the SCSI terminators.

1. Remove the front cover by pulling out on the bottom and sliding it downward, slightly,

then pulling it away from the enclosure.

WARNING

Do not attempt to lift the controller enclosure without the help of
another person or a lift device. It weighs 75 pounds.

2. With another person or using a lift, lift the enclosure and slide it, back-end first, into the

rack, onto the previously installed rails (

Figure 63

). Push the enclosure as far into the

rack as it will go.

3. Verify that two holes in each mounting ear (B in

Figure 63

) align with the sheet metal

nuts previously installed on the rack front columns.

4. Insert two screws (A in

Figure 63

) through the holes in the controller mounting bracket

that align with the nuts in rack column, on each side of the enclosure. Tighten the
screws.
