Installation guidelines

Before you install the DCS3700, DCS3700 storage subsystem with Performance Module Controllers, and

expansion units in a rack cabinet, review the following guidelines:

vThis product is to be installed and serviced only by qualified IBM service representatives.

vBecause of the size and weight of the storage enclosure as shipped, a lift tool and a minimum of two

trained service technicians are required to push the enclosure out of its custom-designed package and

onto the lift tool.

vThe storage enclosure must not be installed in a rack position where the top of the unit is above 32U

or the bottom of the unit is above the 29U mark on the rack cabinet.

vDo not block any air vents; usually 15 cm (6 in.) of space provides proper airflow.

vDo not leave open spaces above or below an installed storage enclosure in your rack cabinet. To help

prevent damage to storage enclosure components, always install a blank filler panel to cover the open

space and to help ensure proper air circulation.

vInstall the storage enclosure only in a rack cabinet with perforated doors.

vPlan the device installation starting from the bottom of the rack cabinet.

vInstall the heaviest device in the bottom of the rack cabinet.

vDo not extend more than one device out of the rack cabinet at the same time.

vRemove the rack doors and side panels to provide easier access during installation. Depending on the

rack location where the storage enclosure will be installed, you might need to remove the bracket that

holds the door to the rack because the bracket might obstruct the storage enclosure handles.

DANGER

Connect the storage enclosure to a properly grounded outlet. The storage enclosure accepts only 200

V - 240 V input sources. If you do not have an IBM rack with the supported PDUs and 60 A power

cords, check your PDUs or input sources to ensure that they can handle the voltage and currents of

the DCS3700 storage subsystem and DCS3700 storage subsystem with Performance Module

Controllers. Do not overload the power outlet when you install multiple devices in the rack

cabinet.

vInstall the storage enclosure in a rack cabinet that meets the following requirements:

– Minimum depth of 70 mm (2.76 in.) between the front support flange and the inside of the front

door.

– Minimum depth of 157 mm (6.18 in.) between the rear support flange and the inside of the rear

door.

– Minimum depth of 762 mm (30 in.) between the front and rear support flanges to support the use of

the cable-management arm.

vFor more information about installing the storage enclosure in a non-IBM rack, see the “Specifications

for non-IBM rack installation” section in the IBM System Storage DCS3700 Storage Subsystem and

DCS3700 Storage Subsystem with Performance Module Controllers Installation, User's, and Maintenance

Guide.

Installing the support rails and rear brackets

Note: Use the front and rear rack-mounting templates on pages 19 and 20 to align the support rails and

rear brackets with the correct rack holes. If the support rails will be installed above an existing

storage subsystem or storage enclosure, position the DCS3700 or DCS3700 storage subsystem with

Performance Module Controllers support rails directly above it. If the support rails will be installed

below an existing storage subsystem or storage enclosure, allow 178 mm (7 inches) of vertical

clearance for the DCS3700 or DCS3700 storage subsystem with Performance Module Controllers.

To install the left and right support rails in the rack cabinet, complete the following steps. Use the front

and rear rack-mounting templates on pages 19 and 20 to align the support rails and rear brackets with

the correct rack holes. If the support rails will be installed above an existing storage subsystem or storage

enclosure, position the DCS3700 or DCS3700 storage systems with Performance Module Controllers

support rails directly above it. If the support rails will be installed below an existing storage subsystem

or storage enclosure, allow 178 mm (7 in.) of vertical clearance for the DCS3700 storage subsystem or

DCS3700 storage subsystem with Performance Module Controllers.

1. Ensure that the rack has already been installed.

2. Ensure that a stabilizer has been attached correctly to the bottom front of the rack to prevent the

rack from tipping forward while the storage enclosure is being installed.

Refer to the installation and service guide, or equivalent, for the rack as required.

3. Locate the two support rails, eight M5 screws, and eight washers that are supplied with the storage

enclosure.

Note: The screws and washers might already be attached to the support rails. If so, remove them

from the support rails.

4. Starting with the left support rail, loosen the two rail adjustment screws with a medium flat-blade

screwdriver. The adjustment screws are used to lock the support rails at a certain length.

Note: The support rails are not marked as left or right. However, each rail can be mounted correctly

on only one side of the rack cabinet. The rails should be mounted with the alignment pin at

the rear of the rack.

5. Hold the front of the left support rail against the inside of the front rack cabinet support flange, and

extend the rear of the support rail until it makes contact with the rear rack cabinet support flange.

The alignment pins at the rear of the support rail slide into the mounting holes at the rear of the

rack cabinet. The wider end of the support rail must be positioned at the front of the rack cabinet.

6. From the front of the rack cabinet, with the support-rail flanges positioned inside the rack cabinet

support rail assemblies, insert two M5 screws with washers through the front of the cabinet and

screw them into the support rail front flange. Ensure that you use a washer when you install an M5

screw through a square hole on a rack-mounting flange.

Attention: Ensure that the screws are tight enough to support the weight of the storage enclosure,

but do not completely tighten the screws yet.

7. Ensure that the holes in the rail above and below the top mounting screw are visible through the

holes of the rack flange and tighten the two M5 screws to secure the front of the rail to the rack

flange.

8. From the rear of the rack cabinet, insert two M5 screws with washers through the rear of the cabinet

and screw them into the support rail rear flange.

9. Tighten the two rail adjustment screws with a medium flat-blade screwdriver.

10. Repeat steps 4 on page 8 through 9 for the right support rail.

Note: Because the mounting holes on the rack are not always the same size as the mounting screws,

the lip of each of the support rails might not line up evenly. Make minor adjustments as

needed to ensure that the lip of the left and right support rails are lined up evenly on the

racks. Failure to do so will cause the storage enclosure to fit unevenly in the rack.

11. Locate the two rear brackets, four M5 screws, four washers, and four clip nuts that are supplied with

the storage enclosure.

12. Install the rear brackets at the rear of the rack as shown in the following illustration, using the M5

screws, washers, and clip nuts to secure the brackets to the rack mounting holes.

Installing and removing the handles

Install the handles on the storage enclosure before you move the unit onto the lift tool. After you install

the storage enclosure in the rack cabinet and remove the handles, store the handles for future use.
