Use the following best practices when determining the rack location for the appliance:
■
Be sure to use complete RUs for the appliance. Do not use holes that span
different RUs when you install the rails.
■
The storage shelves are much heavier than the compute node and should be
installed as close to the bottom of the rack as possible.
■
The compute node should always be installed above the Primary Storage Shelf.
■
Do not leave any spaces between the compute node and the storage shelf.
