8 Installing the Archive Engine

Active Archive Appliance (A3) v6.5 PowerFile Confidential Racking and Installation Guide

Installing the Archive Engine (Generation 1)

The rails are shipped together, with the inner rail located inside the outer rail.You’ll need to

separate the two rails and then attach the inner rails and latches to the Archive Engine prior to

mounting the device into the rack. The rails are attached with the screws provided in the

shipping box.

The rack must be assembled with the left and right chassis components correctly oriented. In this

assembly, the “left” and “right” correspond to the left and right sides of a person facing the rack

assembly.

The rail assembly is designed to prevent the Archive Engine from being removed completely;

however, the rack will allow access to the fan tray. If the device must be completely removed,

you must rotate the right side chassis latch up and the left side chassis latch down. You will then

be able to remove the device.

Identifying the Rail Kit Hardware

Before getting started with installation, review the illustrations in this section and identify the

rail kit parts that are required for assembly.

Table 3-1 identifies the rail kit hardware for the

Archive Engine (Generation 1).

Note: An Allen wrench and Torx screwdriver are provided for installation; however, you will need to

provide a Phillips head screwdriver.
