Installation guidelines
Before you install the support rails for the SAN Volume Controller 2145-CF8 node,
review the following guidelines:
v
Do not install a unit in a rack where the internal-rack ambient temperature
exceeds the lowest manufacturer-recommended ambient temperature for all of
your rack-mounted devices.
v Do not install a unit in a rack where the air flow is compromised. Ensure that
air flow is not blocked or reduced on any side, front, or back of a unit used for
air flow through the unit.
v
Ensure that the equipment is connected properly to the supply circuit so that the
circuits do not overload and compromise the supply wiring or overcurrrent
protection.
v
Plan the device installation by starting at the bottom of the rack cabinet to
ensure that the rack is stable and cannot tip over.
v
Install the heaviest device in the bottom of the rack cabinet.
v
Do not install a SAN Volume Controller node directly above the pull-out
monitor and keyboard of the IBM System Storage Productivity Center (SSPC)
server. The front panel of the node protrudes beyond the front of the rack and
overlaps part of the monitor, which prevents you from opening it.
