Determining Where to Install Devices in the Cabinet

Device Placement RequirementsBefore attaching the mounting rails or trays in any cabinet, you must decide where to put them. Where you install the devices depends on the kinds of devices you will install and the height of each device.

Position in the Cabinet

Devices with internal cooling fans that move air from front to back (or vice versa) and not from beneath or above have no special cooling requirements that direct placement in the cabinet. All of the storage systems and enclosures mentioned in this document have fans that move air from front to back.

Depending on the type of enclosures you will install in your cabinet, EMC recommends one of the following three device placement configurations.

For device power, cooling, and weight information, refer to the appropriate hardware reference documentation.The device-specific configuration planning guide lists detailed configuration restrictions; the setup guide and hardware reference provide examples and installation suggestions.

These illustrations suggest that you install devices starting from the bottom of the cabinet and stacking upward. Installing bottom to top offers the advantages of stability and convenient cable access from beneath; it has the disadvantage of making access less convenient to the bottom devices.

Review your plan to make sure all devices will fit in the cabinet, and review any requirements for filler panels. It is also important to verify cabling lengths before installing any enclosure.

Power distribution must support the number of outlets required for the device and the device power rating.

Device Height Requirements 1-5

Determining Where to Install Devices in the Cabinet

Device Height RequirementsDevice height requirements and cabinet mounting measurements are based on NEMA units (U for short).

Table 1-1 NEMA Unit Heights

The pre-drilled holes in the cabinet channels are based on the U measurement. The holes are pre-drilled at distances of 1/2 inch, 5/8 inch, 5/8 inch (totaling one U), then 1/2 inch, 5/8 inch, 5/8 inch (another U), and so on. On the EMC 40U cabinet, the 1U increments are marked by a vertical line in the channel. See Figure 1-4 on the next page.

Table 1-2 lists the vertical space requirements of typical rackmounted devices.

Installing Mounting Trays, Rails and 1U SPSs

Installing the SPS Tray AssemblyThe SPS tray holds two Standby Power Supply (SPS) units. Viewed from the front and with the side adjustable rails attached, it looks like Figure 2-6 below.

Figure 2-6 SPS Mounting Tray

An SPS is required for write caching. We recommend that an SPS is installed immediately below the enclosure whose power it will supplement. However, this depends on what devices you will install. Refer to the sample configurations on page 1-2 for information on specific device placement requirements within your cabinet.

We suggest you install the first SPS tray at the bottom U-aligned position in the cabinet. If this is the first SPS tray in this cabinet, you can rest it on the cabinet base.

In the EMC 40U cabinet, each 1U increment is indicated by a line on the channel.

Follow the steps below to mount the SPS tray assembly in the cabinet.

1. Slide the tray into the cabinet, and align the base of the SPS tray with the baseline.

You do not need a baseline for the first SPS, which can rest on the base of the cabinet.

2. At the front of the tray, align the holes in the channel with the holes on each tray flange.

EMC2204

Installing the SPS Tray Assembly 2-9

Installing Mounting Trays, Rails and 1U SPSs

3. On the front left channel, insert the three clip nuts on the channel holes that you will use to secure the tray. Repeat this step for the right channel. (For greater clarity, Figure 2-7 shows the installation of a single clip nut.)

Figure 2-7 Inserting the Clip Nuts on the Front Channels

Refer to Figure 2-8 to perform Steps 4 through 9.

4. Level the tray, and align the holes on the left front flange with the clip nuts in the left front channel.

The rear tray flanges align to the inside of the channel.

5. Use two M5 x 16-mm pan-head screws in the channel to secure the front flange to the clip nuts. Repeat on the right channel.

6. At the back of the cabinet, level the tray and align the clip nuts on the adjustable rail flange with the holes in the channels.

7. Use two M5 x 16-mm pan-head screws in the channel to secure the left adjustable rail flange to the left rear channel. Repeat this step for the right channel.

Installing Mounting Trays, Rails and 1U SPSs

Installing an SPS in the TrayThis section explains how to install an SPS in the rackmount tray. See your specific hardware reference manual for information on cabling the SPS.

Install the SPS in the rackmount tray as follows:

1. Remove the SPS from its packaging, and place it on a clean, static-free surface.

Place SPS units directly beneath the enclosure to which they will connect. Refer to your device-specific hardware reference for cabling details.

2. If your system will include two SPSs, use two M4 x 8-mm screws to fasten an attachment bracket to the left rear side of the left (viewed from the rear) SPS. Tighten the screws securely. See Figure 2-10.

For systems with a single SPS install the unit in the right (from the rear) side of the SPS tray, under storage processor A. They do not include a left SPS; the empty side of the SPS tray is covered by a rear filler panel.

3. Use two M4 x 8mm screws to fasten an attachment bracket to the right rear side of the right SPS. Tighten the screws securely. See Figure 2-10.

Tools and Equipment

You will need the following tools and equipment to complete your installation:

◆ Rail kit(s)

◆ Adjustable wrench

◆ Phillips screwdriver

Installing the 3U and 4U Enclosures

We recommend that a storage processor enclosure, such as an SPE or DPE2, be located directly above the SPS tray. In configurations where a 3U disk-array enclosure shares an SPS with a processor enclosure, locate the DAE2 directly above the processor enclosure. The 3U disk-array enclosures are typically stacked above their respective storage processor enclosure to facilitate the routing of Fibre Channel cables. Refer to the sample configurations on page 1-2 for information on specific device placement requirements within your cabinet.

Refer to your device-specific hardware reference document for cabling information.
