Hardware Enclosures and Configurations
Hardware Enclosures and Configurations
Enclosures that house specific hardware components in an Integrity NonStop NS1000
system include:
•
Blade element (HP Integrity rx2620 server)
•
I/O adapter module (IOAM)
•
Fibre Channel disk module (FCDM)
•
Maintenance switch (Ethernet)
A large number of enclosure combinations are possible within the modular cabinet of
an Integrity NonStop NS1000 server. The applications and purpose of any NonStop-
NS1000 server determine the number and combinations of the enclosures within a
modular cabinet.
Because of the number of possible configurations, you calculate the total power
consumption, heat dissipation, and weight of the modular cabinet based on the
hardware configuration that you order from HP.
For site preparation specifications of the modular cabinet and the individual
enclosures, see Section 3, System Installation Specifications.
For examples of various combinations of enclosures installed in a modular cabinet, see
Section 7, Example Configurations.
