Quick Reference Guide

4. Installing the Server into a Rack
To identify the required space and location for the server with the
template:
1. Identify the front side of the template.
2. Starting at the bottom of the rack or at the top of a previously
mounted component, secure the template against the front of
the rack by pressing the two push tabs. Match the hole pattern
on the template with the holes in the vertical rails of the rack.
3. Align the template so that the sides of the template are even
with the sides of the rack. Tick marks on the vertical rails of
the rack help you maintain the proper alignment.
Note: Tick marks on the rack’s vertical posts mark off U-spaces in the
rack configuration and help to maintain the proper alignment
4. Using a pencil, mark the locations on the rack where you
insert the rack rail tabs (1).
5. On the rack, mark the top and the bottom edges of the
template (2). This step helps you align a template for the next
component.
6. Move to the rear of the rack and turn the template over so you
can use the backside of the template. Repeat steps 2 through 5
on the rear of the rack.
Note: On the rear of the rack, make the pencil marks on the inside of
the vertical rails. These markings guide you in installing rack rails into
the interior of the rack frame.
7. Install the rails on both sides of the chassis.
8. Pull the rail compression lever towards you.
9. Install the rear of the rail into the designated holes in the rear
of the rack.
10. Install the front of the rail into the designated holes in the
front of the rack.
11. Install the rails on the chassis into the rails in the rack.
12. Slide the server onto the rack rails until the locking pin
engages.
13. Tighten the thumbscrews to secure the server to the rack.
5. Connecting the Power Cord and Device
Cables
The NAS 9000s server can operate either on a 120-V or a 240-V
AC input. Two AC inlets are on the rear of the server, one for
each power supply installed.
WARNING: To reduce the risk of electric shock or damage to
the equipment:
■ Do not disable the power cord-grounding plugs. The
grounding plugs are an important safety feature.
■ Plug the power cords into grounded (earthed) electrical
outlets that are easily accessible at all times.
■ Disconnect power from the server by unplugging the
power cords from either the electrical outlets or the server.
To connect the power cords:
1. Locate the correct voltage line cords that came with your
server. Remove any labels that cover the cord connectors.
2. Plug the power cords into the power supply AC inlets.
Note: To connect the power cords, plug them into the appropriate
power supply AC inlets. The power connector is connector number
one for the primary power supply and is connector number two for the
redundant hot-plug power supply.
3. Plug the other end of the power cords into grounded electrical
outlets or UPS, depending on power cord types.
Note: To help protect the server against downtime due to a loss of
power, plug each power supply into separate AC circuits.
4. Connect the peripheral device cables to the server, and then
route the power cord and device cables through the cable
management solution. For more information, refer to the
Cable Management System Reel Assembly Installation
Instructions that are included in the hardware kit.
