Two system configurations
Two VMAX 250F systems can be installed in a rack. Each system can have one or two
V-Bricks. The second system must be installed as a field upgrade option.
VMAX 250F systems in a rack must conform to the following requirements:
l
Lower system: 1U - 20U
l
Upper system 21U - 40U
The following diagrams illustrate possible configurations for two VMAX 250F systems
in a rack.
EMC rack requirements for customer components
Customer components can coexist in an EMC rack with a VMAX 250F system. The
system must be properly positioned within the rack in accordance with following
physical placement rules:
l
EMC equipment should stack from the bottom while customer equipment stacks
from the top of the rack.
l
A system must exist within contiguous space.
(Customer equipment must be above a VMAX 250F system and not interwoven
within the EMC system.)
l
All customer equipment must be electrically isolated and powered by a second pair
of PDP/PDUs. This pair is sold as an optional kit.
l
EMC racks with two VMAX 250F systems cannot install customer components in
the rack.
