Depending upon performance, capacity, and availability requirements, you can customize the cabinet to meet your data storage needs. The cabinet contains two AC distribution boxes and can support up to twelve command modules and drive modules. The command module is a rackmount unit containing two array controllers, a battery, redundant cooling fans and power supplies. Drive modules may contain up to fourteen drives, redundant fans and power supplies, and either an array controller or Environmental Service Monitor (ESM) board. See "Reference Documentation" on page 4 for information on the modules.
Figure 2 shows a typical configuration that includes five drive modules and one command module mounted in the 72-inch rackmount cabinet. The cabinet is shipped with only the bottom half filled to provide stability when shipping and moving the cabinet to the installation site. The top half is filled with blank panels.
