is there a 1200mm rail kit with extended depth for the AFF C30 system? Customer got shipped the super rails and they are too short by about 4 inches

If they are the adjustable rail kits that fit the deep racks. I do it frequently with FlexPod installations. I came across some racks yesterday that were significantly deeper than the 1280mm ands the kits were too short.

#

There is the X87881A but I cannot find any details how deep that one goes

I'm not aware of any NetApp rail kits that can work in cabinets deeper than 1280mm.
It looks like the X87881A is a 4-post rail kit that is fixed length (739mm).

we ended up using 3rd party rack extenders... Frankly, I think it was all a product of them setting the rails too far back in the rack on initial install but when it's had gear in it for years; you can't exactly fix that one easily lolz 😛

I’ve done it. But EVERYTHING must be on adjustable rails (like the Netapp ones). Some rails lock in place. Plus it only works if you additionally have access to the lock down screws for the vertical rails

I’d rather never do it again
