Power Distribution
Power Distribution Units (PDUs) are configured according to the voltage used in the country when the
solution is ordered. These PDUs provide redundant power. They are located in the bottom of the rack,
taking 2U of rack space. To reclaim the 2U of rack space required by the PDUs, they may be moved to
the rear of the rack using the PDU Pivot Bracket Kit. It is factory or field installable.
For the EVA6400/8400 a variety of HP 10000 G2 Series Rack offerings and integration options are
available. The EVA configurator tools utilize a 42U HP 10000 G2 Series Rack as the standard
recommendation and will provide a 220/240V PDU and country specific power cords. Both the height
and types of rack and PDUs can be modified based upon the specific customer need. If other devices,
such as servers, switches or back-up devices, are to be installed with the EVA; this can be specified and
the cabinets and PDUs can be modified to support the configuration. The EVA6400/8400 also supports
22U and 36U racks. The 47U rack is also supported, but not factory configured, because of the cabinet
height, which creates shipping limitations. It must be assembled on site.
For more information on configuration and PDU support for the 10000 G2 Series Rack please see the

Other PDUs, besides the 200 - 240 V single-phase default PDU, are also supported. This includes 100 -
127 volt single-phase, 200 - 240 volt three-phase, and 380 - 415 volt three-phase PDUs. Monitored
PDUs are also supported.

When installing the EVA Enclosures in extended depth racks (AF091A, AF092A, AF094A, or AF097A), 1
each of the longer Power Jumper Cord is required for each EVA Controller or Drive Enclosure on the
order.
NOTE:

NOTE: When adding additional devices to existing racks ensure that the installed PDUs will support the
new power requirements.

architected storage offerings. And with Virtually Capacity-Free Snapshot (Vsnap), significant duplicate

The EVA has one of the highest density disk storage solutions in the industry. Additionally, the unique
virtual architecture allows up to twice the normal effective capacity utilization of traditionally architected
storage offerings. And with the virtually Capacity-Free Snapshot (Vsnap), FATA disk drives and the ability
to change Vraid types, significant amount of duplicate capacity requirements can be eliminated, resulting
in fewer/smaller storage acquisitions.
