Chapter 2 Installing a Sun Fire V440 Server Into a 4-Post Cabinet 13
Install the Slide Assemblies
Be aware of the following guidelines.
Caution – Ensure that you have stabilized the cabinet by extending its anti-tip legs
or bolting the cabinet securely to the floor.
■ Install the slide assemblies into the lowest available position.
■ Install additional servers from the base up in the cabinet.
1. Use the Rack Alignment template to locate and mark mounting holes on the front
vertical rack rails.
See “Locate the Mounting Holes” on page 11.
2. Adjust the back mounting brackets to accommodate the depth of the rack.
■ Loosen the 8-32 lock nut on each of the back mounting brackets.
■ Adjust the back mounting bracket forward or backward on each slide assembly to
accommodate the depth of the rack. You may find it necessary to remove the nuts
and reposition the brackets to obtain the correct spacing.
■ Partially tighten the lock nuts. Do not fully tighten the lock nuts until after you
attach the slide assemblies to the mounting rails.
