Allow enough space to remove the shipping cartons. The minimum required depth
for roll-off is 4.5m (15ft). Refer to the Sun Rack II Unpacking Guide (820-5210) included with
the packaging for further details.

Receiving and unpacking:
C
Access route to installation site:
Each rack has two preinstalled power distribution units (PDUs). The PDUs accept different
power sources. You must specify the type of PDU that is correct for your data center.
A
Verify that the PDUs installed are correct for your data center power source: 22 or 24kVA for
low or high voltage.
B
PDU power cords are 4m (13.1ft) long, and up to 1.5m (4.9ft) is routed within the rack cabinet.
AC power receptacles must be within 2m (6.6ft) of the rack.
C
Use dedicated AC breaker panels for all power circuits that supply power to the PDU.
D
Use dedicated AC breaker panels for all power circuits that supply power to the compute nodes.
Compute nodes require electrical circuits to be grounded to the Earth.
Note:
Circuit breakers are supplied by the customer. One circuit breaker is required for each power cord.
E
In addition to circuit breakers, provide a stable power source, such as an uninterruptable power
supply (UPS) to reduce the possibility of component failures.
F
Racks are shipped with grounding-type power cords (three-wire). Always connect the cords to
grounded power outlets. Verify the correct grounding method for your location.

Oracle recommends using raised flooring, able to support the total weight

Temperature, humidity and altitude:
C
Provide adequate ventilation and cooling:
•
Make sure that the capacity of the air conditioning equipment is sufficient
for the new system hardware.
•
Respect the maintenance clearance at the front and back of the system for
optimum airflow. The air intake is at the front, and the air outlet is at the
back.
•
Install perforated floor tiles (approximately 400 CFM/tile) in front of the
rack for cold air intake. Use four tiles for a fully populated
rack, three tiles for 8-16 compute nodes, or one
tile for 8 or fewer compute nodes.
•
Cover empty rack units with filler
panels to avoid adverse effects
on airflow and cooling.
