Fire Suppression Planning

For sites in areas of seismic activity, you might want to permanently fix the library
position for added stability. The SL3000 library provides mounting holes in the floor of
each module where half-inch carriage bolts (mounting studs) can be used to
permanently fix the library's position.

Waste Disposal

Plan for the disposal of all packing material. Determine if waste bins or recycling
containers will be provided on site or whether an independent company will handle
the disposal at additional cost.
Fire Suppression Planning
The library does not ship with a fire suppression system, but each module has a 5 cm
(2 inch) diameter nozzle opening (see
1.2 mm (0.048 inch) thick, cover the openings and can be drilled to custom fit nozzles.
Nozzles must be clear of robotic operations and cannot protrude more than 1.9 cm
(0.75 inches) into the library. Professional Services can assist with fire suppression
planning (contact your Oracle sales representative).

Networking

If possible, use a dedicated and secure private network for communication between
the library and host management software. A secure private network connection using
an Ethernet hub or switch is required for maximum throughput and minimum
resource contention.
If a shared network must be used:
Place the library on its own subnet.
■
Directly connect the library to a switch and use a managed switch that can:
■
–
–
Use a virtual private network (VPN) to insulate host and library traffic.

Cable Routing

The SL3000 library has rear door cut-outs on both the top and bottom of the door to
allow for cable routing. The cut-out is a 2.5 cm (1 inch) opening that runs 73 cm (29
inches) along the length of the door with cable routing hardware and reliefs available.

on page 1-9.
Set priorities on ports to give the host and library higher priority.
Provide dedicated bandwidth and create a VLAN between the host and the
library.
Note: The Base module and DEM have square holes on the face of
rear door. These are for access to the PDUs, not for cable routing.
