The space requirements must take into consideration the total oor clearance required
for the storage system. This includes:
■
The space required by the equipment
■
Service clearance - the oor space required to access the storage system.
■
Additional space required to distribute the equipment weight on your computer
room's raised oor. The amount of additional space required depends on your oor
load rating.
■
Additional space required to view the storage system LEDs on the front and rear
panels.
If your computer room uses oor cutouts to route power and data cables, position the
cutouts toward the center of the rack. If this is not possible, position the cutouts o-
center from the rack as long as the cutout is within the allowable range and allows
smooth routing and entrance of cables. Check the relationship between the position of
the cutout and the cable openings on the rack.
