Determining Installation Positions
Before installing controller enclosures and disk enclosures, determine their installation positions in a cabinet. This greatly improves installation efficiency.
Prerequisites
The following installation tools and materials have been prepared:
- 2 U/4 U installation template (available in the accessory box)
- Marker
Context
- To facilitate the operation and maintenance of a controller enclosure, you are advised to install a controller enclosure between the 19th U and the 24th U in a cabinet. This section uses the recommended installation positions in a 42 U cabinet as an example. You can plan device installation positions based on site requirements.
- You are advised to install disk enclosures from the bottom up in descending order of weight.
Procedure
- See Layout Planning to locate the installation positions of controller enclosures and disk enclosures in a cabinet.
Each three square holes correspond to 1 U height. Each 1 U height is lined out with a scale mark. If no 1 U scale mark is lined out on the front and rear columns of the cabinet, line out scale marks to facilitate locating installation positions.
- Align the bottom of an installation template with the integer U mark on the mounting bars of the cabinet, as shown in Figure 4-58, Figure 4-59, and Figure 4-60.
- Use a marker to mark the positions of the screw holes where devices will be fastened on the mounting bars. Then, you have finished locating the installation positions of the controller enclosure and disk enclosures.
