Providing clearance space and ventilation
Provide adequate clearance around the front and back of the racks. Provide at least 25 inches (63.5 cm)
in the front of the rack to allow the doors to open fully and provide at least 30 inches (76.2 cm) in the
rear of the rack to allow for servicing and air fl ow.
If there are unused spaces in your rack, attach blanking panels across those empty spaces to force the
air fl ow through the components instead of through the open spaces.
Providing power sources
Provide two high-line power feeds installed near your computer. These two power sources usually come
from the same external power grid, but occasionally originate from different grids or even entirely
different sources.
For protection against a power-source failure, obtain and include in your installation two Uninterruptible
Power Supplies (UPS).
