BladeCenter S Types 7779 and 8886 installation worksheet
Use this worksheet to plan for the BladeCenter S system location in the rack and to determine the rack weight.
When completed, the worksheet provides a total weight for up to six blade servers in the BladeCenter S chassis. Each worksheet applies to one 8886 BladeCenter S unit. Fill out a worksheet for each BladeCenter S chassis in the rack.
- Before you can complete this worksheet, fill out an installation worksheet for each blade server (1 to 6) that you plan to install in this chassis. See Blade server and workstation blade installation worksheet.
- Circle the 8886 BladeCenter S number and the BladeCenter S position in the rack.
- Circle how many power modules are required for this BladeCenter S unit.NoteFour power modules on four 220-volt ac circuits provide the most power. See
Power consumption guidelines for more information about component power consumption and how to provide redundant power. - Compute and record Subtotal 1 for the weight of these components.
- For each blade server (1 through 6), record the weight numbers from the blade server worksheets.
- Compute and record Subtotal 2 for blade servers 1 through 6.
- Record the subtotals for weight on the bottom of the worksheet. Add the subtotals to derive the total weight for this BladeCenter S unit.
Note
The fully configured weight of a BladeCenter S system with blade servers is approximately 108.86 kg (240 lbs).
