The base IBM Cloud Pak for Data System consists of four main components (1G
switch, 25G switch, two compute chassis) that are designed to be integrated in the
same rack with PDUs. The recommended component placement for the Connector
Node is shown in Figure 2 below. Other configurations can be used if IBM Safety
Notices translations Pub # G229-9054 rules are followed, and the lengths of the
supplied cables are not exceeded. .
The Cloud Pak for Data System requires all IBM
supplied and serviceable components to be installed below the 42U height.
