To allow for servicing and adequate airflow, observe the following space and airflow requirements when deciding where to install a rack:
Leave a minimum clearance of 63.5 cm (25 in) in front of the rack.
Leave a minimum clearance of 76.2 cm (30 in) behind the rack.
Leave a minimum clearance of 121.9 cm (48 in) from the back of the rack to the back of another rack or row of racks.
Hewlett Packard Enterprise storage servers draw in cool air through the front door and expel warm air through the rear door. Therefore, the
front and rear rack doors must be adequately ventilated to allow ambient room air to enter the cabinet, and the rear door must be
adequately ventilated to allow the warm air to escape from the cabinet.
