NonStop NS14000 Series Planning Guide (H06.13+)

This illustration shows the location of an R5500 XR UPS and an ERM in a modular cabinet:
For power and environmental requirements, planning, installation, and emergency power-off (EPO)
instructions for the HP R5000 UPS or HP R5500 XR UPS, refer to the documentation shipped with
the UPS.
Enterprise Storage System (Optional)
An Enterprise Storage System (ESS) is a collection of magnetic disks, their controllers, and a disk
cache in one or more standalone cabinets. ESS connects to the NonStop NS-series systems either
directly via Fibre Channel ports on the VIO enclosures (direct connect) or through a separate
storage area network (SAN) using a Fibre Channel SAN switch (switched connect). For more
information about these connection types, see your service provider.
NOTE: The Fibre Channel SAN switch power cords might not be compatible with the modular
cabinet PDU. Contact your service provider to order replacement power cords for the SAN switch
that are compatible with the modular cabinet PDU.
