While a standard 42U rack can physically accommodate 42 ProLiant DL160 G6 servers, it is advisable to allow space for server expansion, power distribution components, keyboard/video/mouse (KVM) equipment, or networking components. In Figure 9, Power Advisor calculates a single rack configured with 24 DL160 G6 servers. Figure 9. Power calculation for 24 HP DL160 G6 servers The Power Advisor determines that a rack configuration of 24 DL160 G6 servers would require the following: • 4312.56 VA total apparent power (24 x 179.69 VA) that the power distribution components must transfer • 12785.28 total BTU/hr that will need to be removed by the cooling system • 20.64 amperes total current (24 x 0.86 A) drawn by the 24 servers • 3749.28 total watts dissipated by the equipment 11
