Apple Xserve (Original) - Manual (Page 29)

Installing Your Server in a Rack 29
Note: When installing a drive module for the first time, remove the blank drive module and
save it for possible future use. This unit is necessary for appropriate cooling of the server in a
drive bay that has no drive module in it.
When you’ve installed optional items, you’re ready to connect the server to the rack. If you
have a four-post rack or cabinet, proceed to the next section, “Install the Server in a Four-Post
Rack or Cabinet” on page 29. If you have a two-post rack, go to “Install the Server in a Two-
Post (Telco) Rack” on page 37.
Install the Server in a Four-Post Rack or Cabinet
A four-post rack can be open or enclosed in a cabinet. Examples of both racks are shown
below. You follow the same steps to attach the server to either of these racks. For a cabinet,
however, you may have to remove the door before installing the server.
Important Be sure to check the documentation for your rack for any specific mounting
instructions.
