Compaq ProLiant DL380 Generation 2 Server High-Density Deployment in Compaq Racks 19 Compaq Confidential - Need to Know Required Planning Rack Configurations Consider several important factors when planning a rack configuration: • The number of servers deployed in the rack • The number of other devices such as keyboards, keyboard drawers, video displays, and console switchboxes that support the servers • The number of PDUs and their orientation • The type of rack • The rack management system • The console management system All of these factors influence floor support requirements, future service and upgrade requirements, and installation requirements. Table 12 lists the weight and power specifications for Compaq racks and rack option products. To calculate floor support requirements for a particular rack configuration, add the weight measurements to calculate the total weight of a rack fully populated with ProLiant DL380 Generation 2 servers. See the following example: 1 × 9142 rack 21 × ProLiant DL380 Generation 2 server with hard disk drives 21 × Cable management system 3 × High-voltage PDUs with brackets 22 × High-voltage Y-cables 21 × Keyboard/Video/Mouse cables Total configured rack weight 114 kg (253 lb) 567 kg (1,260 lb) 76 kg (168 lb) 17 kg (38 lb) 9 kg (21 lb) 27 kg (59 lb) 810 kg (1,800 lb) IMPORTANT: Compaq recommends populating a rack with ProLiant DL380 Generation 2 servers and other rack option products only after the rack is in or very near its final position. Compaq does not recommend transporting a fully populated rack. 14UH-0701A-WWEN
