370-5707-03         RACK SLIDER/CABLE MAN KIT ENXU           -

References:

Issue Description: 

Rackmount kit part number 370-5707-03 supplied as part of the Sun Fire
V210 and V240 Servers contains four sets of screws/nuts for mounting
the rackmount rails in various cabinets as follows:

   A.  M5x12.7 p/n GJ3C6003DI-PZS
   B.  M6x13   p/n GJ3C6005DI-ZZS
   C.  Nut     p/n GG3C6007DI-ZZS
   D.  M4x5    p/n GJ3C002DI-NZS

However these screws are not compatible with the Sun 72" Delorean rack
which requires 10-32x0.5" screws.

The screws supplied in the Sun Fire V210 and V240 Accessory kit do not
fit the Sun 72" Delorean rack.  Attempting to use the screws supplied
with the rackmount kit on this rack will result in the screw thread
being stripped.
 
The correct 10-32 screws were not included in the 370-5707-03 
Rackmount 
Kit supplied with Sun Fire V210/V240 systems.
 
The 370-5707-03 Rackmount kit will be modified to include four
10-32x0.5 Screws.  In the meantime, if a customer needs to install a
Sun Fire V210 or V240 in a Sun 72" Delorean rack, the screws can be
obtained either locally from a hardware store or via the Non-FRU Parts
Process.  See the corrective action section below for the part number.

Implementation: 

---
        |   |   MANDATORY (Fully Proactive)
         ---

        | X |   REACTIVE (As Required)
         ---

Corrective Action: 

The following recommendation is provided as a guideline for authorized
Sun Services Field Representatives who may encounter the above
mentioned issue.

If a customer needs to install a Sun Fire V210 or V240 in a Sun 72"
Delorean rack, and has a 370-5707-03 rackmount kit without the
appropriate screws, the screws can be obtained either locally from 
a hardware store or via the Non-FRU Parts Process.

The 370-5707-03 Rackmount kit will be modified to include four 10-
32x0.5 
screws.

To obtain the screws, follow the non-FRU Parts procedure documented at 
the following URL:
