Setup Guide

Installing the Storage System in a Rack
Install the SCv2080 storage system and other Storage Center system components in
a rack.
NOTE: Mount the storage system in a manner that allows for expansion in
the rack and prevents the rack from becoming top‐heavy.
WARNING: If you plan to install the storage system above the lower 20U of
a rack, a customer-provided mechanical lift must be used to avoid injury.
1. Determine where to mount the storage system in the rack and mark the location
at the front and rear of the rack.
NOTE: The storage system and expansion enclosures each require 5U
of rack space for installation.
2. Position the rails at the marked locations and extend the rails to fit the rack.
3. Install the shelf and rails in the rack following the safety instructions and the rack
installation instructions provided with your rail kit.

4. Slide the storage system chassis onto the rails until the rear of the array passes
through the rear hold-down brackets.
