  • Page 26: Site Preparation Guidelines For Ns2300 Systems

    3 Site Preparation Guidelines for NS2300 Systems This chapter provides guidelines for preparing a site for an NS2300 system. Rack Power and I/O Cable Entry Depending on the rack order and the routing of the AC power feeds at the site, AC power cords for the PDUs exit either: Top: Power and I/O cables are routed from above the rack.
  • Page 27: Power Quality

    To protect the system from electrical disturbances, use a dedicated power distribution system, power conditioning equipment, and lightning arresters on power cables. For assistance, consult with your HP site preparation specialist or power engineer. Grounding Systems The site building must provide a power distribution safety ground/protective earth for each AC service entrance to all NonStop server equipment.
  • Page 28: Flooring

    Flooring NS2300 systems can be installed either on the site’s floor with the cables entering from above the equipment or on raised flooring with power and I/O cables entering from underneath. Because cooling airflow through each enclosure in the racks is front-to-back, raised flooring is not required for system cooling.
  • Page 29: Operational Space For An Ns2300 System

    Operational Space for an NS2300 System √ Ensure: NS2300 system site layout, uses the equipment dimensions, door swing, and service clearances listed in “Dimensions and Weights” (page 49) and takes advantage of existing lighting and electrical outlets. Airflow direction and current or future air conditioning ducts are not obstructed. Eliminate any obstructions to equipment intake or exhaust air flow.

Identifies the non-supported UPS configurations that should not be used with the NonStop system when the disk drive write cache is enabled.
  • Page 65: Nonstop I System With A Fault-Tolerant Data Center

    NonStop i System With a Fault-Tolerant Data Center In this supported configuration, the NonStop system is installed in a Tier-IV data center. The data center tier classification is defined by the Uptime InstituteTM Tier Classifications Define Site Infrastructure White Paper. IMPORTANT: With this configuration, you can guarantee that the data center never loses power.

    NonStop i System With Data Center UPS, Both Power Rails In this non-supported configuration, a NonStop system is installed in a Tier-I, Tier-II or Tier-III data center. The data center tier classification is defined by the Uptime InstituteTM Tier Classifications Define Site Infrastructure White Paper. IMPORTANT: If this configuration is used, there is no guarantee that your data center will never lose power.
  • Page 71 When the utility power fails, OSM does not detect that the data center UPS is running on battery and the UPS has entered its battery runtime. OSM does not initiate the controlled shutdown of the I/O operations and processors. If the utility power is not restored before the data center UPS shuts down, any data in the NonStop system disk drive write cache that has not been transferred to the disk drive media is lost.

  • Page 73 To prevent data loss during a utility power failure, you must manually disable the Write Cache Enable (WCE) option on all the disk drive volumes. For information on how to disable the WCE, see the SCF Reference Manual for the Storage Subsystem (G06.28+, H06.05+, J06.03+). When the utility power is restored, you can enable the WCE.

  • Page 76 Once the downstream UPS is in this state, it still might not immediately perceive stable input power. The downstream UPS is thus compromised until it achieves a lock on stable input power and is able to recharge its batteries. Such problems are very difficult to predict. Their occurrence is a function of the output characteristics of the primary UPS, the input characteristics of the downstream UPS, and the load characteristics of the other devices deriving power from the upstream UPS.
