Compaq ProLiant DL380 Generation 2 Server High-Density Deployment in Compaq Racks 6 Compaq Confidential - Need to Know Required ProLiant DL380 Generation 2 servers in a rack. Use this document, in conjunction with the documents listed in Appendix A, as a guideline for planning rack configurations for high-volume deployments of ProLiant DL380 Generation 2 servers. The "Power Distribution Units" section outlines Compaq PDU choices best suited for building rack configurations. This section provides technical specifications for high- and low-voltage PDUs. It also describes how to allocate the correct number and type of PDUs for specific rack deployments. The "Planning Rack Configurations" section provides weight information for individual rack components to help address floor support requirements. It also describes cable systems. The "Console Management Systems" section provides information on server management options. All discussions of power requirements for ProLiant DL380 Generation 2 servers are based on the input power of the server. This document uses the maximum rated power supply input of 575 W for calculation purposes. However, derating the input power may be effective to: • Minimize the number of PDUs required for each rack. • Match the rack current requirements with the existing circuit breaker capacity. • Match the rack cooling requirements with the existing facility cooling capability. For more information about input power derating, see Appendix C. IMPORTANT: In this document, derating the input power budget means using less than the maximum rated input power values for the power supply. To derate the input power, see Appendix C. Compaq strongly recommends that the derated power budget satisfies all the installation requirements, including future upgrade plans. Refer to the Compaq ProLiant DL380 Generation 2 Server QuickSpecs for detailed specifications and options for the ProLiant DL380 Generation 2 server. 14UH-0701A-WWEN
