Installing the Library 

Installing the Rails in a Rack 

Determine the proper position of the rails in the rack.  

 Warning 

Consider rack stability when deciding where to place the StorageLibrary. 
Hazardous conditions can result from uneven mechanical loading of a rack.  

The StorageLibrary uses 4U of vertical rack space. The rails must be installed in a full U position. The 
bottom of the rails must be aligned with the bottom of a U.

Installing the Left Rail Assembly 

1  Measure the length between the rear rack mount rails and the front rack mount rails. If the 

measurement is shorter than the StorageLibrary, adjust the two sets of screws M4x12, washers, 
and nuts shown in 

Figure 8. Mounting the Rack mounting Kit to a Rack

. 

2  Adjust the Left Rail Assembly to fit the measurement in step 1. 

3  Use a 7-mm open-end wrench together with the screwdriver to tighten the two M4x12 screws to 

fix the rail length.  Using more than two screws increases the stability of the Rack mounting Kit. 

4  Place the Left Rail Assembly on the left side of the rack, between the rear rack mount rail and the 

front rack mount rail. 

5  Mount the Left Rail Assembly at the desired height using one M6x12 screw in front (upper hole in 

rail only) and two M6x12 screws at the backside.  

Installing the Right Rail Assembly 

Follow the instruction for left side, only using the Right Rail Assembly on the right side of the rack.
