IBM SAN192C-6, Инструкция по установке, обслуживанию и эксплуатации

Страница: 75 / 160

Required Equipment
You need to obtain the following items before beginning the installation:
v Number 1 and number 2 Phillips screwdrivers with torque capability
v 3/16-inch flat-blade screwdriver
v Tape measure and level
v ESD wrist strap or other grounding device
v Antistatic mat or antistatic foam
v Torque wrench and socket for the DC power supply lug nuts
In addition to the grounding items provided in the accessory kit, you need the
following items:
v Grounding cable (6 AWG recommended), sized according to local and national
installation requirements; the required length depends on the proximity of the
IBM c-type SAN Device to proper grounding facilities.
v Crimping tool large enough to accommodate girth of the DC lug
v Wire-stripping tool
v For the IBM c-type SAN Device, you need a mechanical lift to handle the weight
of the fully-loaded chassis.
Installation Guidelines
Follow these guidelines when installing the IBM c-type SAN Device.
v Plan your site configuration and prepare the site before installing the chassis. We
recommend that you use the site planning tasks listed in Appendix C, “Site
Planning and Maintenance Records,” on page 121.
v Ensure that there is adequate space around the switch to allow for servicing the
switch and for adequate airflow. Airflow requirements are listed in Appendix A,
“Product Specifications,” on page 99.
v Ensure that the air-conditioning meets the heat dissipation requirements listed in
Appendix A, “Product Specifications,” on page 99.
v Ensure that the rack meets the requirements listed in “Rack Requirements” on
page 41.
v Ensure that the site power meets the power requirements listed in Appendix A,
“Product Specifications,” on page 99. You can use an uninterruptible power
supply (UPS) to protect against power failures.
CAUTION:
Avoid UPS types that use ferroresonant technology. These UPS types can become
unstable with systems such as the IBM c-type SAN Director series, which can
have substantial current draw fluctuations because of fluctuating data traffic
patterns.
v Ensure that circuits are sized according to local and national codes. For North
America:
v The 3000-W AC power supplies require a 20-A circuit.
v If you are using 200/240 VAC power sources in North America, the circuits
must be protected by two-pole circuit breakers.
CAUTION:
To prevent loss of input power, ensure that the total maximum loads on the
circuits supplying power are within the current ratings of the wiring and
breakers.
