B.3
Management Host Requirements
A local management host with at least one serial port connection is recommended for the
initial installation and configuration of a controller enclosure. After you configure one or
both of the controller modules with an IP address, you then use a remote management host
on an Ethernet network to manage and monitor.
NOTE :
Connections to this device must be made with shielded cables with
metallic RFI/EMI connector hoods in order to maintain compliance with FCC Rules and
Regulations.
B.4
Physical Requirements
The floor space at the installation site must be strong enough to support the combined
weight of the rack, controller enclosures, drive enclosures, and any additional equipment.
The site also requires sufficient space for installation, operation, and servicing the
enclosures, together with sufficient ventilation to allow a free flow of air to all enclosures.
The table below shows the enclosure dimensions and weights. Enclosure designators are
described below. Enclosure weights assume the following configuration characteristics:
• 2U12 enclosure (LFF)
- “2U12” denotes the 3.5” 12-drive enclosure (with controller or expansion modules)
- 2U12 chassis is equipped with a disk in each disk drive slot
• Two controller or expansion modules per enclosure
• Two power supplies per enclosure
