Actual clearances for installation should be determined after consulting with construction specialist responsible for installation building, as they could vary depending on the size/layout of the system and building conditions. 2. When various configurations of disk arrays are arranged in a row, clearance values based on the largest disk array configuration should be used. 3. From the viewpoint of maintenance operations, it is suggested that Clearance (c) be made as large as possible. Operational requirements The operational requirements for the P9500 include: • LAN for Remote Web Console Remote Web Console communicates with the P9500 disk array over a LAN to obtain system configuration and status information and send user-requested commands to the disk array. Remote Web Console serves as the integrated interface for all Resource Manager components. • Cable length for channel adapters Table 23 (page 40) lists the cable length requirements for the CHAs in the P9500 disk array.

Notes:
1. Actual clearances for installation should be determined after consulting with construction specialist responsible for
installation building, as they could vary depending on the size/layout of the system and building conditions.
2. When various configurations of disk arrays are arranged in a row, clearance values based on the largest disk array
configuration should be used.
3. From the viewpoint of maintenance operations, it is suggested that Clearance (c) be made as large as possible.
Operational requirements
The operational requirements for the P9500 include:
LAN for Remote Web Console
Remote Web Console communicates with the P9500 disk array over a LAN to obtain system
configuration and status information and send user-requested commands to the disk array. Remote
Web Console serves as the integrated interface for all Resource Manager components.
