1 System Components and Specifications This chapter provides detailed system specifications for the HP 3PAR StoreServ 7450 Storage system and serves as a quick reference for other relevant specifications that are described in more detail in other chapters of this manual.
• Power Cooling Module is an integrated power supply, battery, and cooling fan. There are two types of PCMs: ◦ The 580 W is used in the drive enclosures and does not include a battery. ◦ The 764 W (includes a replaceable battery) is used in the node enclosures. The PCMs are located at the rear of the system, on either side of an enclosure. There are two PCMs per enclosure that are numbered from 0 to 1, from bottom to top and left to right.

NOTE: SSDs have a limited number of writes that can occur before reaching the SSD's write endurance limit. This limit is generally high enough so wear out will not occur during the expected service life of an HP 3PAR StoreServ under the great majority of configurations, I/O patterns, and workloads. HP 3PAR StoreServ tracks all writes to SSDs and can report the percent of the total write endurance limit that has been used.

2 General Site Planning Successful installation of the HP 3PAR StoreServ 7450 Storage system requires careful planning and supervision in collaboration with authorized HP representatives. Proper planning will help provide for a more efficient installation and greater reliability, availability, and serviceability. The chapter includes general recommendations for physical planning and site preparation for the storage system installation.
The following are suggested site planning tasks to be completed prior to the delivery and installation of the selected storage system. • Prepare a preliminary layout of the subsystem installation. • Review the power and the heating, ventilation, and air-conditioning (HVAC) requirements. • Order any additional support equipment indicated by the power and HVAC review.
• Disk drive magazine container: Height 38 inch (96.5 cm) x Width 29 inch (73.6 cm) x Depth 34 inch (86.4 cm) Approximate shipping weight: 392 lb (177.8 kg) • Node enclosure container: Height 30 inch (76.2 cm) x Width 35 inch (88.9 cm) x Depth 45 inch (114.3 cm) Approximate shipping weight: 618 lb (280.3 kg) When the equipment arrives, you must make sure that there is enough room to unload and unpack the storage system.
3 Structural/Environmental Considerations Consider the following when choosing or designing your facilities for the storage system: • Equipment location and layout that allows efficient use, easy maintenance, and future expansion. • Facility construction that provides a suitable operating environment, sufficient power, and adequate protection from fire, contamination, or other hazards. • Suitable temperatures and appropriate air quality that is free from environmental contaminants.
NOTE: For information on options available for the Intelligent Series Rack, refer to the Rack Options Catalog at www.hp.com/go/rackandpower. For information on rack requirements and considerations, see the Best practices for HP Intelligent Series Rack Family white paper. Meeting Environmental Conditions HP recommends that you maintain a controlled environment with a high degree of cleanliness, close control of temperature and humidity, and infrequent access by personnel.
normally required to replace moisture removed during the cooling process. The relative humidity for a subsystem equipment room should be set at 40%. This level is sufficient to suppress electromagnetic charge buildup, and low enough to avoid the risk of corrosion and condensation. To avoid air contamination from the humidifier, water treatment may be necessary in areas with high mineral content.
During major changes in the server room environment, special considerations must be taken into account whenever any drilling, sawing, welding, brazing, and so on, is performed. Precautions must be taken to prevent material particles (concrete or metal particles for example.) from becoming airborne. Storage systems should be powered down during construction that requires any drilling, sawing, welding, brazing, and so on. In addition, all debris must be removed before powering up the systems.
4 Power Requirements The following describes all power domains within a HP 3PAR StoreServ 7450 Storage systems. Electrical Requirements and Limitations Before physically installing a storage system, verify that the operating site has the necessary electrical circuitry. Each storage system requires four (200 - 240) Volt, 30 Amp outlets, or two outlets if only the bottom half of the rack is occupied. For proper redundant power protection, power should be supplied from two or more power sources.
labeled to identify the branch circuit it is controlling. The receptacle should also be labeled. Plan on a circuit breaker maximum of 30 A per PDU (de-rated to 24 A). Emergency Power Control As a safety precaution, you might consider providing emergency power-off controls for disconnecting the main service wiring that supplies storage systems.
There are two types of PCMs: • 580 W PCM - Used in HP M6720 and HP M6710 drive enclosures • 764 W PCM (includes a replaceable battery pack) - Used in controller node enclosures The following table provides the technical specifications of the replaceable battery located inside the 764 W PCM. Table 10 Battery Pack Technical Specifications Specifications Description Operating Temperature 41° to 104° F (5° to 40° C) - Reduce rating by 1° F for each 1000 ft altitude (1.
5 Network, Cabling, and Connectivity This chapter provides information about how to determine the best network configuration, including the necessary connections and cable routing options, when installing the storage system at a determined site. NOTE: The following information assumes that your are working with an established network, and explains how to connect a storage system to a network.

Required Cables The quantities and lengths of the cables required for storage system installation vary according to the specific storage system and network configuration. Fibre Channel cables are used externally to connect the controller node to the customer switch or host (in the case of a directly connected host). The SAS cables are used to connect the controller node to the drive enclosures. Table 12 Required Cables Cable Type Outside Diameter Connector Type SAS 6.60 – 7.

The following table lists the typical SAS cable lengths required for a given type of connection.
Shared With a shared network topology, the storage system and SP share the internal customer network.
6 Third-Party/Existing Rack Mounting Some installations may use third-party or existing racks to house the HP 3PAR StoreServ 7450 Storage components. Install system components only into a standard 19-inch rack. The rack must also be equipped with the appropriate PDUs or power receptacles and have access to an adequate power source that provides the recommended level of redundancy.
Enclosure Installation • Two people are required to lift the enclosure during any servicing purposes. Service Limitations (Also applicable to third party rack installations) HP will not perform the following tasks: • Assemble the rack from components • Configure the rack hardware • Position the rack • Perform any extensive racking, re-racking, or cabling activities, including cabling activities involving conduits, raceways, patch panels, and movement or configuration of computer room floor panels.
Table 17 Minimum Clearances (continued) Doors: rack doors must be at least 1.5 inch (3.81 cm) away from the front and rear of the enclosures and be perforated with a minimum 50% open pattern across the entire surface. Cabling Front: n/a Rear: 30 inch (76.
