Chapter 1. Introduction
Purpose and scope
This document defines preinstallation requirements for the IBM XIV Storage
System, Machine Types 2810 and 2812 Model A14 systems. It is important to
ensure that you meet all requirements to guarantee a fast and reliable installation.
If you cannot meet any of the installation requirements explained in this document,
notify your IBM representative to devise alternative solutions.
Partially populated racks
The IBM XIV Storage System is available in a partially populated rack
configuration. For installation planning purposes, the same floor loading and
power consumption requirements apply to a partially populated rack (containing 6,
or 9 - 14 modules) as apply to a fully populated (15 module) rack.
Note:
Seven (7) and eight (8) module configurations are not supported.
Concerning older racks
This document supports systems shipped with the 1101 (dual CPU interface
module) feature code. This feature is available on racks ordered August, 2009 and
later. Systems shipped with the previous 1100 (interface module) feature code differ
slightly in weight, sound output, power consumption, and depth of the rack. If
you are relocating or planning installation of a system ordered with feature code
1100 (interface module), see Appendix D, “Specifications - pre-August, 2009 racks,”
on page 27.
