Installing the 58/86 disk drive enclosure: Details
The detailed installation procedure includes information from online references that are specified in the
overview. You can use the expanded instructions in this procedure to install your disk drive enclosure
into a rack and to cable it to a server.
Before you begin
vThis information is provided in printed form as a list of basic tasks for installing the 58/86 disk drive
enclosure. For the most current version, use the online information: Installing the 5886 disk drive
enclosure.
vThis procedure assumes that you are installing the 58/86 disk drive enclosure into an existing rack. If
the rack is not yet installed, you must first complete the procedure for Installing the rack.
vBefore installing the disk drive enclosure into a rack, read the Rack safety notices.
About this task
To install the 58/86 disk drive enclosure, complete the following tasks:
1. Unpack the disk drive enclosure as follows:
a. Refer to the kitting list provided with the rack installation kit, and complete a parts inventory.
b. Locate the rack-mounting hardware kit and the system rail assemblies that were included with
your disk drive enclosure.
The rails are front-to-back and left-to-right side dependent.
2. Determine where to install the disk drive enclosure into the rack as follows:
a. Determine where in the rack to place the disk drive enclosure in relation to other system
hardware. As you plan, keep the following steps in mind:
1) Organize larger and heavier units into the lower part of the rack.
2) Plan to install units into the lower part of the rack first.
3) Record the EIA locations in your plan.
Note: The disk drive enclosure is two Electronic Industries Alliance (EIA) units high. An EIA unit
is 44.50 mm (1.75 in.) in height. The rack contains three mounting holes for each EIA unit of
height. This enclosure, therefore, is 89 mm (3.5 in.) high and covers 6 mounting holes in the rack.
b. If necessary, remove the filler panels to allow access to the inside of the rack enclosure where you
plan to place the disk drive enclosure.
3

c. If necessary, remove the front and back rack doors.
d. Mark the rack location where you will install the disk drive enclosure. Choose one of the
following options:
1) If you have a rack-mounting template, use it to mark the location.
2) If you do not have a rack-mounting template, perform the following steps:
a) Face the front of the rack and work from the left side. Make a note of the lowest EIA unit
to be used for the disk drive enclosure. Use tape, a marker, or a pencil to mark the middle
mounting hole (A) of the lowest EIA unit. Count up two holes and place another mark
beside that mounting hole (B). Mark the rack so that these marks can also be seen from the
rear of the rack.
Figure 1. Removing the filler panels
4Power Systems: Installing the 58/86 disk drive enclosure

b) Repeat the last step to place two marks on the corresponding mounting holes on the
front-right side of the rack.
c) Go to the back of the rack. On the left side, find the EIA unit that corresponds to the lowest
EIA unit marked on the front of the rack.
d) Mark the top mounting hole (C) of this EIA unit. Count up two holes and place another
mark beside that mounting hole (D).
e) Repeat the last step to place two marks on the corresponding mounting holes on the
rear-right side of the rack.
3. Install the rail assembly into the rack as follows:
Important: To complete this procedure, use two people to attach the rail assembly to the rack.
Position one person in front of the rack and one person at the back of the rack.
CAUTION:
Installing the rails in the rack is a complex procedure. To install the rails correctly, you must
perform each task in the following order. Failure to do so might cause rail failure and potential
danger to yourself and the system unit.
a. Loosen the two rail-adjustment screws on one rail just enough to enable the rails to slide.
b. Locate the marks previously made on the Electronic Industries Alliance (EIA) strips at the front
and back of the rack cabinet. Use the Lor Rimprinted on the front bracket of your first rail to
align it with these marks within the matching side of the rack cabinet. The bottom of the rail
support ledge should be slightly above the U mark on the rack flange.
The rail comes with two spacers in the front bracket and two spacers in the rear bracket. If the
rack has round holes, the spacers on the rail brackets fit into the round holes in the rack flanges. If
the rack has square holes, replace the set of small spacers on the front and rear of the rail with the
larger spacers that are included with the rail kit.
