2.1 Installation Environment Check

To ensure smooth installation and comply with the operating environment requirements,
the maintenance personnel should inspect the equipment installation environment
carefully. Any non-compliant items must be handled as soon as possible.
2.1.1 Equipment Room Construction Check

The check items are described as follows:
l Equipment room layout
Usually, there are main equipment rooms and auxiliary equipment rooms. A main
equipment room is used to accommodate the main equipment of the system, while
an auxiliary equipment room is used to accommodate such associated devices as
operation & maintenance devices, UPS and storage batteries.
The main equipment room separates from auxiliary one but they are close to each
other.
Arrange the operation and maintenance console such that the operation and
maintenance personnel face the front side of main equipment. Generally, the main
equipment room and the operation and maintenance room are separate with a glass
wall.
Since there are numerous wires and cables in the equipment room, power cables,
network cables and trunk cables are separated from one another at required intervals.
Openings with margins are drilled at appropriate places on the walls as inlets/outlets
for cables.
l Equipment room area
The equipment room is large enough to accommodate the main and auxiliary room
equipment of switching system according to their long-term capacities.
If there are multiple rows of cabinets, the spacing between front row and back row is
not less than 1.2 m. The spacing between the left (or right) side of each row and the
2-1

wall is not less than 0.8 m. The spacing between the rear/front of the cabinet and the
wall is not less than 1 m, as shown in Figure 2-1.
Figure 2-1 Equipment Room Plane Layout Schematic Diagram
l Equipment room height

The height of an equipment room indicates the net height between the undersurface
of the beam or the ventilation pipe and the surface of floor.
The net height is not less than 2.7 m (or 3 m if there is no raised floor in the equipment
room).
The engineering design document must contain special instructions covering the cable
routing methods.
l Floor bearing capacity
The bearing capacity of floor in the main equipment room is not less than 450 kg/m2.
The bearing capacity of floor in the auxiliary equipment room is not less than 300
kg/m2.

2-2

Chapter 2 Installation Preparations
The grooves and cabling racks are used to lay out various cables.
When overhead cabling mode is employed, the cabling racks must be 2.5m to 3m
high above the ground, and the cabling racks of different heights can be connected
through ladders.
When the underground cabling mode is employed, hidden pipes, ground slots and
openings shall be reserved under the floorboard, and their quantities, locations and
sizes shall meet the cabling requirements, with the convenience considered for
maintenance and cabling in future capacity expansion.
Various grooves shall have damp-proof measures taken, the margins and corners of
which shall be level and regular. The gap between the floor and the cover boards shall
be closed.
The lighting and power lines shall be laid in a hidden way.
Note:
Be careful in the construction if there are power cables in the groove or holes.
l Equipment room floor

The equipment floor must look neat without fancy design. The wall and roof must be
painted in light and simple colors with flat varnish or paint without silicides.
The raise floor must be 300 or 330 mm height. The floor blocks must be laid tightly to
the ground with acceptable horizontal gap between each block not more than 2mm/m2.
The floor must be damp-proof, rodent-proof and mothproof.
If the raised floor is not used, the antistatistic flooring must be laid with volume
resistivity between 1.0107~1.01010. And electrostatistic grounding must be
applied for it.
l Shockproof capability
The equipment installation must adopt shockproof measures according to locally
presumed earthquake intensity. The equipment room must be equipped with
shockproof facilities so that it can resist magnitude 7 earthquake.
l Lightening protection
When the equipment room main building or auxiliary facilities (such as chimneys,
antennas, towers, etc.) are over a height of 15m, effective lightning protection
measures must be taken in light of the lightening protection requirements for the
Class II civil buildings and constructions. In addition, measures to protect the
equipment from direct lightening strike and lightning current incursion must be taken
during lightening-proof design.
Measures are to be taken to protect against flank lightning when a high-rise building
serves as the equipment room. Sidestrokes occur in lightning strokes areas.
2-3

Therefore, protective measures against sidestroke take in line with the specific
conditions. For example, connect the metal window frame of building to the lightning
protection lead wire, or install horizontal lightning-protection metal straps on the
external surface of wall at certain place along the height of the building.
Install proper lightning prevention devices for the power supply along the lines of mains
input to the equipment room.

5.5 Power and Ground Cables Wiring

Purpose
This topic describes the procedure to check whether the cable laying is reasonable. Take
measures to rectify those noncompliant items.
Precautions:
l Be cautious in installing the cables to ensure personal safety and equipment security.
l The size and color of the power cable must comply with the specifications without
confusion.
l Before wiring the power cables, mark both ends of each cable to prevent incorrect
connection.
Wiring Requirement
The power and ground cables wiring requirements are described as follows:
l The power cables and ground cables shall be laid separately from other cables. If
they are laid in the rack, they shall be bundled separately, and cannot be combined
into a cluster. If they are laid outside the rack, they shall also be bundled separately.
l Both ends of the cables are labeled clearly. The connection places should be secure
and in good contact. The cable bending positions should not be sharp, so that the
cables are not over stretched at the root and connectors.
l In case of overhead wiring, the power cables and ground cables are laid on the cabinet
tops, and bound on the cable trough on the ceiling. In case of underfloor wiring, the
power cables and ground cables are laid under the floors and bound on the cable
trough below the floor. The distance between cable ties shall be 200 mm.
l The power cables and ground cables are separately led in from the filters and the PE
ground terminals at the top of the cabinet to the bus bar in the cabinet. The cables
shall be laid straight and flatly and bound tightly. The distance between cable ties
shall be 200 mm.
l Select a proper type (150 mm/300 mm) of cable ties according to the number of cables.
Cut the surplus part of the cable ties after binding.
l Before laying the power cables and ground cables, exactly measure the distance
between the power distribution cabinet and connecting terminal of the cabinet, and
reserve enough length to prevent shortage in practical distribution. If the cables are
found short, the whole wiring process has to be reworked with longer cables. Do not
use connectors or welding joints to extend the length of cables.
Wiring Technique
The power and ground cables wiring technique is described as follows:
l When fixing the cable lugs at the DC power distribution cabinet side, add plain
washers and spring washers to secure fixation and good contact between the cable
and connector bar so as to minimize the contact resistance. Figure 5-2 shows the
connections.
5-5

Figure 5-2 Power Cable Connection Mode 1
1. Copper bar 3. Nut 5. Cable

2. Plain washer 4. Bolt 6. Spring washer
l For the cables with lugs, when one connection post is connected with more than one
cable, the lugs must not be overlaid. Instead, the two lugs shall be cross connected or
installed back to back. When they have to be overlaid, bend the lug of the overlaying
cable at 45 or 90 before the installation. The bigger lug shall be placed under the
smaller one. Such a method is also recommended for all cable installations with
lugs. Figure 5-3 shows the connection method, wherein figure A indicates the 45
or 90 bending of lugs, figure B indicates back-to-back connection of lugs and figure
C indicates cross connection of lugs.

Engineering Labels
Engineering labels of the power cables are the flag-shaped labels provided by ZTE, as
shown in Figure 5-4.
Figure 5-4 Power Cable Label
Paste the label nearly half of a circle around the cable at the position 2 cm from the lug,
and then paste the backs of two halves of the flag-shaped label together. Either end of the
power cable should be pasted with one label, as shown in Figure 5-5.
Figure 5-5 Pasting Position of Power Cable Label
There are two parts on the flag-shaped label, L (Local) and R (Remote). The meaning of
them are as follows:
l L: Input the position code of the local equipment, indicating the position of the
equipment connected by the cable at the local side. If this end is connected to the
power distribution box, specify the cabinet row number, rack number, and cable
attributes, such as -48V, -48VGND, and PE. For example: A04PE.
l R: Input the position code of the remote equipment, indicating the position of the
equipment connected by the cable at remote side. If the remote side is the power
distribution box, mark clearly the name of the power distribution cabinet, and attributes
of the power cable. For example: Power Distribution PE.
5-7

Note:
The content of two labels on both ends of the same power cable shall be opposite. For
example, the content input in the L region of one end shall be identical with that input in
the R region of the other end.

4. Turn off the switches of the power modules of the disk array.
Example
Here we use the SUN mini-computers as the example to introduce the procedure to power
off the mini-computer.
1. Shut down the resource groups on the VCS.
a. Right-click the zxphrsrv from the navigation tree on the left pane of the Cluster
Management window, click Offline > All System.
b. Right-click the zxpdb from the navigation tree on the left pane of the Cluster
Management window, click Offline > All System, as shown in Figure 8-3.
Figure 8-3 Shut Down the Database
2. Use following command to stop the VCS service on any of the PHR computer by the
root user.
#hastop all

Note:
After this command stops the VCS service, the PHR active computer and all database
and application programs on the active computer are stopped. To stop the VCS
processes of all computers in the cluster on one active computer while keep the
resources managed by the VCS to be offline (that is to keep the resources running),
use the command: #hastop all force.
3. Use the following command to shut down the system on each of the PHR
dual-computer.
#shutdown y g0 i5
Wait till the system indicators on the two mini-computers become off, the PHR
dual-computer is successfully shut down.
4. Turn off the switches of the power modules at the back of the disk array.
