Breaker Configurations For both racks, AC power is supplied to each power distribution unit (PDU) from the breaker. Figure 2-7 and Figure 2-8 show the breaker configurations for the primary and secondary racks, respectively.

Power Connection The AC power input for the Universal Storage Platform VM has a duplex PDU structure. This duplex structure enables the entire rack to remain powered on in the event that power is removed from one of the two power distribution panels (PDPs). • Direct connection to power. Figure 2-9 shows the power connections when the AC input lines are connected directly to the power facility. • Power connection through UPS.

Input Voltage and Input Frequency Table 2-6 lists the input voltage and input frequency requirements for the Universal Storage Platform VM.
Environmental Specifications and Requirements The environmental specifications and requirements for the Universal Storage Platform VM include: • Temperature, Humidity, and Altitude • Heat Output, Power Consumption, and Air Flow • Loudness • Vibration and Shock Temperature, Humidity, and Altitude Table 2-1 specifies the temperature, humidity, and altitude requirements for the Universal Storage Platform VM. The recommended operational room temperature is 21–24°C (70–75°F).
Heat Output, Power Consumption, and Air Flow Table 2-8 lists the power consumption and heat output specifications and the air flow requirements for the Universal Storage Platform VM. These data generally apply to both 60-Hz and 50-Hz storage systems. The Universal Storage Platform VM requires less power and puts out less heat than the Hitachi TagmaStore® Network Storage Controller, so the air flow requirements are decreased.
Loudness The acoustic emission values [loudness in dB(A)] for the Universal Storage Platform VM storage system are: Front/rear = 65 dB(A) Both sides = 65 dB(A) Vibration and Shock Table 2-9 lists the vibration and shock tolerance data for the Universal Storage Platform VM. The USP VM can be subjected to vibration and shock up to these limits and still perform normally.
Operational Requirements The operational requirements for the Universal Storage Platform VM include: • LAN connection (or RJ-11 analog phone line) for Hi-Track® The Hi-Track maintenance support tool monitors the operation of the Universal Storage Platform VM, collects hardware status and error data, and transmits this data via LAN (or modem) to the Hitachi Data Systems Support Center.
