2.2 Installable Racks
This section explains the racks in which the ETERNUS DX can be installed.
2.2.1

Fujitsu Racks

The ETERNUS DX can be installed in a Fujitsu 19-inch rack. For information about whether the ETERNUS DX
can be installed in an EOLed rack or not, contact your sales representative.
2.2.2

Non-Fujitsu Racks

The ETERNUS DX storage systems are developed and their operation is guaranteed on the assumption that
they are installed in Fujitsu 19-inch racks. Since the ETERNUS DX cannot be tested (for cooling and strength)
in non-Fujitsu 19-inch racks, the operations of ETERNUS DX storage systems cannot be guaranteed. Any
problem that may occur by installing the ETERNUS DX in non-Fujitsu racks is not covered by the warranty.
If the ETERNUS DX needs to be installed in a non-Fujitsu rack, the following conditions must be satisfied.
