Hardware Planning
Before you install the system hardware, you must plan for the physical configuration and the initial data configuration.
Planning for site preparation
This information is intended to help you prepare your physical site for installation. Marketing and installation planning representatives are also available to help you plan your installation. Proper planning for your new system facilitates a smooth installation and a fast system startup.
Planning for power
Each enclosure is provided power through two power supplies. Either power supply unit can power the enclosure independently if there is a loss of input power to the other power supply in the enclosure.
Plan to connect the power cords of the power supplies on the left side of the enclosures (when viewed from the rear) to one power source, and the power cords of the power supplies on the right side of the enclosures to another power source.
The power supply units in a control enclosure are not interchangeable with the power supply units in an expansion enclosure.
