Site requirements
This table lists the ES30 and FS15 site requirements. See ES30 and FS15 hardware
specifications on page 130 for hardware specifications information.
Table 2 ES30 and FS15 site requirements
Requirement ES30 expansion shelf
Vertical Space in
Standard 19", 4-post
Rack
3U. Do not use a two-post rack. See the slide rail and installation
documentation in the packaging for installing in a rack.
Air Conditioning Air conditioning that can cope with the maximum BTU/hr thermal
rating.
Temperature
Controls
Adequate temperature control with a gradient (change) not to exceed
30° C in an hour.
Front Bezel
Clearance
1.56 inches (4.0 cm) of unobstructed clearance.
Back Panel
Clearance
5 inches (12.7 cm) of unobstructed clearance.
Airflow In a closed or multi-unit rack, ensure that the unit has adequate airflow.
If the equipment is mounted in an enclosed (as opposed to a four-post
open rack), the front and rear doors should have 65% minimum open
area for airflow. Whether in an open or enclosed rack, use filler panels
to prevent hot air recirculation. The rack design and installation should
take into consideration the maximum ambient operating temperature of
the equipment, which is 35° C.
Power/ Grounding Two single-phase AC power outlets with an earth ground conductor
(safety ground). A safe electrical earth connection must be provided to
each power cord. Voltage should be 100-120 VAC or 200-240 VAC; 50
or 60 Hz. Use only with branch circuits protected by a minimum 15A
overcurrent protector. Plug the two power cords into separate branch
circuit supplies for redundancy.
Licensing
The appropriate capacity license is required for any added shelf. There are four tiers of
storage—active, archive, cache, and cloud. A license is purchased and applied to one
of these tiers.
Only Data Domain Extended Retention (ER) systems have archive tier storage.
Only Data Domain DD6300, DD6800 and DD9300 systems configured with SSDs or
those systems configured with a FS15 shelf have cache tier storage.
