ActiveScale™ X100 Site Requirements Guide

2.1 Airflow considerations
Ensure that both the front and rear of the ActiveScale X100 stay clear of any materials that may block or
disrupt the airflow in any way. Disrupting the airflow can cause the system to overheat which may affect
performance or cause damage to the system.
The following rack airflow principles should be considered for best results:
• Controlled air conditioners that are functional and can sufficiently maintain specified system
operating temperatures should be located in the facility where the system will be installed.
• The airflow in and out of the equipment must not be restricted.
2.2 Rack requirements
Note:
Component tolerances in the rack can be very tight. Consequently, when
measuring rack dimensions, measure to the millimeter or 1/32 of an inch.
The following is considered best practice when choosing a rack mounting solution for the ActiveScale
X100:
•
System Dimension
- select a 19" rack mounting solution that has inner dimensions of at least a height
of 2100mm and a depth of 1200mm.
•
System Weight
- consider whether the rack mounting solution selected can maintain the static loads
required for a base system, dynamic loads if the system will be moved from its installation location,
and the additional Storage Sleds that might be added later if the system is scaled up.
•
Cable Management
- the system is designed so that most of the cables are wired at the back of the
system. The exception is the Storage Enclosure Basic where the power and SAS cables cables connect
in the front. Be sure that the system cabling can be routed safely and efficiently through the identified
routes.
•
Grounding
- ensure that the electrical components used to power the system can be grounded safely
and that the rack itself can also be grounded safely.
Use the following table to make determinations about your rack mounting solution.
