Chapter 3 Installing a Cisco Nexus 7018 Chassis
Installing the Bottom-Support Rails on the Rack
Unpacking and Inspecting a New Chassis
Before you install a new Cisco Nexus 7018 chassis, you need to unpack and inspect it to be sure that you
have all the items that you ordered and verify that the device was not damaged during shipment. If
anything is damaged or missing, contact your customer representative immediately.
Tip Do not discard the shipping container when you unpack the Cisco Nexus 7018 system. Flatten the
shipping cartons and store them with the pallet used for the system. If you need to move or ship the
system in the future, you will need these containers. For repacking instructions, see
Appendix D,
“Repacking the Cisco Nexus 7000 Series Device for Shipment.”
To inspect the shipment, follow these steps:
Step 1 Compare the shipment to the equipment list provided by your customer service representative and verify
that you have received all of the ordered items. The shipment should include boxes for the following:
• System chassis, which includes the following components:
–
2 supervisor modules
–
1 to 16 I/O modules
–
3 to 5 fabric modules
–
2 fan trays
• 2 to 4 power supply units
The power supply units are shipped with the chassis but boxed separately.
• Cisco Nexus 7018 system accessory kit
To see a list of what is in the accessory kit, see the Cisco Nexus 7018 System Accessory Kit Contents
document, which is included in the kit.
• Front door (optional)
Step 2 Check the contents of each box or package for damage.
Step 3 If you notice any discrepancies or damage, send the following information to your customer service
representative by e-mail:
• Invoice number of the shipper (see the packing slip)
• Model and serial number of the missing or damaged unit
• Description of the problem and how it affects the installation
Installing the Bottom-Support Rails on the Rack
The bottom-support rails hold the Cisco Nexus 7018 chassis on the rack or cabinet. To maximize the
stability of the rack, you must attach these rails at the lowest possible rack unit (RU).
The prerequisites, tools, and process for installing the bottom-support rails are included in the following
topics:
