Switch Requirements; Required Tools - Dell EqualLogic FS7610 Series Installation And Setup Manual

Dell EqualLogic FS7610 Installation and Setup Guide
• Secure the rack to the floor for added stability.
• There must be at least 4.1 cm (1.6 inches) between the rack door and the front of the hardware to
accommodate the front bezel.
• The rack (with installed hardware) must meet the safety requirements of UL 60950-1 and
IEC 60950-1.
• Mount the hardware in a horizontal position. Any other position voids your warranty and support contract.

Switch Requirements

Dell recommends that you use a highly available network switch configuration for the client and SAN/internal
network connections.
Ideally, you want a network switch configuration in which a switch failure does not disrupt the availability of the
NAS cluster . That is, no single switch should have all the client or SAN/internal network connections.
See Network Connection Requirements and Recommendations on page 18

Required Tools

If you are installing the appliance in a rack, you will need a #2 Phillips screwdriver (not supplied).
