Install SG6100-CN controller (SG6160)

Contributors netapp-ivanad netapp-pcarriga

You install a set of rails for the SG6100-CN controller in your cabinet or rack, and then slide the controller onto the rails.

Before you begin
  • You have reviewed the Safety Notices document included in the box, and understand the precautions for moving and installing hardware.

  • You have the instructions packaged with the rail kit.

  • You have installed the E4000 controller shelf and drives.

Steps
  1. Carefully follow the instructions for the rail kit to install the rails in your cabinet or rack.

  2. On the two rails installed in the cabinet or rack, extend the movable parts of the rails until you hear a click.

  3. Insert the SG6100-CN controller into the rails.

  4. Slide the controller into the cabinet or rack.

    When you can't move the controller any further, pull the blue latches on both sides of the chassis to slide the controller all the way in.
