ProLiant DL360 G2 Server
High-Density Deployment
Abstract:
This white paper is a planning guide to expedite
concentrated deployments of several ProLiant
DL360
Generation 2 (G2) servers in a single rack. Use this white paper in
conjunction with documents for the ProLiant DL360 G2 server and
Compaq rack deployment products as necessary. This paper is
written for Field Systems Engineers (FSEs) and customers (IT
managers, system managers, account managers, and installers).
Executive Summary
Many business enterprises and service providers implement a
distributed architecture for their infrastructure, remote client access,
and web applications. In these cases, individual applications are
loaded on multiple machines creating the need to tightly fit a large
number of density optimized servers into existing server rooms and
data centers. Compaq meets this need with the density-optimized line
of ProLiant servers, such as the ProLiant DL360 G2 server. At a
height of 1U each, up to 42 ProLiant DL360 G2 servers can fit in a
single Compaq 42U rack. This server has clear space saving benefits;
its compressed size presents new challenges for rapid server
deployment, cable management and environmental considerations.
Compaq engineers have developed innovations in rapid high-volume
deployment and improved cable management for large installations
of ProLiant DL360 G2 servers. This white paper introduces
planning, power and thermal considerations, server and rack
requirements and installation configurations. It also outlines the
products associated with high-volume deployment in Compaq rack
configurations, such as keyboard, video, and mouse infrastructure.
IMPORTANT:
This document discusses the ProLiant DL360 G2
server primarily and the Compaq 7000-, 9000- and 10000-series
racks and related Compaq rack options secondarily. This document
does not discuss other Compaq servers, products or racks not
manufactured by Compaq, although the ideas presented here may be
applied to third party racks.
