DETAIL:

IBM Quality has determined that a limited number of side panel Options for 9306-900 Racks fit improperly to the Rack assembly due to incorrect panel-to-rack latch bracket welds.

To determine if you have good covers upon visual inspection, the measurement from the bottom of the cover to the bottom of the tab that rest on the frame must be 35mm +/- 1mm.

Note: If the dimension is in the 16-18mm range you have a defective cover.
Order a new cover, FRU P/N 76H4949, using Code "B".

Note: All FRU Stock in Amsterdam and Mechanicsburg have been checked and are not effected.
