Task 2: Mounting Vess in a Rack

The instructions here apply to the Vess A2600s and Vess A2600.
The Vess installs to the rack using the mounting rails shipped with the device.
To install the Vess into a rack with the supplied mounting rails:
1. Check the fit of the mounting rails in your rack system.
2. Adjust the length of the mounting rails as needed.

The rear rail slides inside the front rail. The rail halves are riveted together and use no
adjustment screws.

The front-left and front-right mounting rail ends are labeled.

Be sure the front rail support is on the bottom facing inward.

Do not populate any unit with hard drives until it has been securely installed
●
in the rack.
At least two persons are required to safely lift, place, and attach the Vess unit
●
into a rack system.
Do not lift or move the Vess unit by the handles, power supplies or the
●
controller units. Hold the system itself.
Do not install the Vess unit into a rack without rails to support the system.
●
Only a qualified technician who is familiar with the installation procedure
●
should mount and install the Vess unit.
Mount the rails to the rack using the appropriate screws and flange nuts, fully
●
tightened, at each end of the rail.
Do not load the rails unless they are installed with screws as instructed.
●
The rails available for the PROMISE Vess unit are designed to safely support
●
that PROMISE Vess unit when properly installed. Additional loading on the
rails is at the customer's risk.
PROMISE Technology, Inc. cannot guarantee that the mounting rails will
●
support your PROMISE Vess unit unless you install them as instructed.
To lighten the Vess enclosure, you can remove the power supplies. Replace the
power supplies after the Vess unit is mounted in your rack.
