UCS System should meet all the environmental requirements before deploying in the data center:
- The chassis requires an industry-standard four-post 19-inch rack or cabinet. It cannot be mounted into a two-post relay rack because of weight and length.
- The chassis requires 6U rack space.
- Ensure proper cooling and ventilation for the rack. Chassis airflow is front to back and should not be obstructed.
- The chassis is floor loading.
Due to the weight and size of the chassis, at least two people are required to mount it to the rails. It is highly recommended to mount the chassis first and then insert power supplies, fan units, and blade servers.
