Chapter 1. Introduction to Planning

This chapter of the Physical Planning Manual is intended to help you with planning pre-installation activities. IBM Marketing and Installation Planning Representatives are also available to help you with installation planning. Proper planning for your new system will facilitate a smooth installation and fast system start-up.

The use of the terms, ’processor’, ’system’ and ’all models’ in this publication refer

the zSeries 800 system.

System Planning

part of your system planning activity, you will make decisions about where to locate your equipment, who will operate the system, and so on. A good plan ensures that the equipment and materials are ready to use when the zSeries 800 system arrives.

You should select an individual to serve as the coordinator for your planning efforts. One person is generally responsible for most or all of the system planning, but it is also possible to divide the responsibilities among other people in your business.

The type of software (operating system and application programs) that you intend to use must support the features and devices on the system. You should already be familiar with your software requirements, but may want to contact your IBM marketing representative for information on planning for the software.

Checkpoint 2

Lay out the floor plan. Show the locations of the processor, control units, work stations, modems, power outlets, and accessories. If you are planning

new computer room, information contained on IBM’sResource Link web site (http://www.ibm.com/servers/resourcelink) may be helpful. See ″General Information for Planning a Physical Site″. If you are planning an installation

requires cables designed to reduce electronic noise interference. Review the overall site preparation plan. Place orders for cables. See Chapter 6, “Cabling and Connectivity,” on page

6-1 Contact the IBM zSeries Fiber Cabling Service (FCS) for assistance. FCS

will help you plan for the cabling solution that meets your individual system requirements. Your marketing representative will provide you with the information necessary to contact FCS.

Checkpoint 3

Determine if the existing programs need changes. Schedule changes as required.

All zSeries 800 models are constructed using building blocks called ″cages″ that mount in a ″frame″. A processor (CPC) cage is always placed in the top position of the frame. Input/Output adapters are installed in a second cage, added to the bottom of the frame.

Because of the large number of cables that can be connected to a zSeries 800 system, installation on a raised floor is strongly recommended.

you are planning an installation on a raised floor in Canada, the installation

must be in accordance with Section 12-020 of the CEC. Certain limitations may apply to non-raised floor applications. In any country, refer to your national electric code if you have questions about routing data processing cables in exposed areas.

weight distribution clearances are overlapped, the customer should obtain the

services of a qualified consultant or structural engineer to determine floor loading.

Service Clearance

Under typical conditions,service clearances of adjacent products may be overlapped but weight distribution areas should not be overlapped. Regardless of floor loading, minimum service clearances must be observed. The zSeries 800 requires 762 mm

(30 in) of service clearance on all four sides of the machine.

All measurements are taken from the outside edge of the machine frame, without covers, unless specifically described otherwise.

Example 1 of the table shows floor loading for a maximum-weight frame in

storage, where there is no space between frames on all four sides, and covers are installed. The ’a’, ’b’, and ’c’ dimensions represent the depth of the covers.

When a system is stored, with no spaces between frames, the floor load rating should be at least 1000 kg/m

(200 lb/ft2).

Figure 2-4. System Service Clearance

The system requires specific service clearances to insure the fastest possible repair in the unlikely event that a part may need to be replaced. Failure to provide enough clearance to open the front, rear, left, and right side covers will result in extended service time.

Machine and Service Clearance Areas

Machine area is the actual floor space covered by the system. Service clearance area includes the machine area, plus additional space required to open the covers for service access to the system. For the zSeries 800 system, machine area is 0.83

(8.9 ft2), and the service clearance area is 5.99 M

Minimum Service Clearances

d = 762 mm (30 in) - front

e = 762 mm (30 in) - rear

f = 762 mm (30 in) - each side

g = 2244 mm (88.3 in) - side to side total

h = 2670 mm (105.1 in) - front to rear total

(64.5 ft2).

Notes:

Machine area includes installed covers. Service clearance area must be free of all obstacles. Units must be placed in a

way that all service areas are accessible. The weight distribution clearance area extending beyond the service clearance area, such as the area at the outside corners of the units, may contain support walls and columns.

Cooling Requirements and Floor Cutouts

The zSeries 800 system requires 11.1 m3/min. (400 f3/min.) of chilled airflow from under the raised floor for adequate cooling. Air flows through the machine from bottom to top, exiting at the top of the rear cover. Heated exhaust air should exit the computer room above the computing equipment. If your computer room uses hot and cold aisles, the front of the machine should face a cold aisle.

you are planning an installation on a non-raised floor, refer to Appendix B,

“Environmental Specifications,” on page B-1 for the environmental conditions you must provide to ensure proper machine operation. After reviewing the environmental information, return to “Considerations for Multiple System Installations” on page 2-9 read the information about ″Inter-system cabling″, and continue from there.

Depending on the panel type, additional panel support pedestals may be required to restore structural integrity of the panel. Consult the panel manufacturer to insure that the panel can sustain a concentrated load of 181.4

(400 lbs) per caster. It is possible that one floor panel will bear two casters

producing loads as high as 362.8 kg (800 lbs) on the panel.

The following illustration shows the recommended placement of the zSeries 800 on

typical raised floor.

Perforated floor tiles are placed on either side of the frame, providing good airflow.

Raised floor cutouts should be protected by electrically nonconductive molding, appropriately sized, with edges treated to prevent cable damage and to prevent casters from rolling into the floor cutouts.

When cutting the panels, you must adjust the size of the cut for the thickness of the edge molding you are using. The dimensions shown are finished dimensions.

Use Figure 2-5 on page 2-7 to install the panels in the proper positions.

The following illustration shows the physical dimensions around the casters. When planning for both the movement and positioning of the system, be aware that each caster swivels in a circle slightly larger than 125 mm (5 in) in diameter. Exercise caution when working around floor cutouts.

Considerations for Multiple System Installations

When integrating a zSeries 800 system into an existing multiple-system environment, or when adding additional systems to an installed zSeries 800, consider the following factors:

Thermal interactions

When positioning a zSeries 800 system on your raised floor, place the machine

that the air supplied by the perforated floor tiles is delivered only to this system. The illustration shows how to include a zSeries 800 in an existing arrangement, allowing for both the required service clearance and adequate air flow.

When trying to optimize floor space utilization, floor loading may become overlapped. Obtain the services of a qualified consultant or structural engineer if you are uncertain of the weight distribution on your raised floor.

Inter-system cabling

Integrated Cluster Bus (ICB) cables linking systems together are limited to 10 meters (33 ft) in length. Because some of that length is used under the covers of

Shipping Specifications

the U.S. and Canada, zSeries 800 systems are shipped with external cardboard

and plastic packaging, and roll on their own casters.

zSeries 800 systems are shipped on pallets for World Trade delivery. The pallet includes a ramp to roll the machine off of the pallet. For shipment to some Asia/Pacific countries the system is protected with a wooden shipping crate. Packaging for both World Trade and A/P requires commercial lift transportation.

Review the packaged product dimensions and your site specifications to determine

the zSeries 800 will need to be unpacked before it can be moved into its install

Chapter 3. Power Requirements

General Requirements

zSeries 800s require a minimum of 2 customer power feeds:

Two identical (redundant) feeds for the frame One duplex service outlet positioned within five feet of the machine frame.

The service outlets require standard 100V to 130V or 200V to 240V, 50/60Hz, single-phase power.

zSeries 800s operate with:

50/60Hz AC power Voltages ranging from 200V to 240V Single-phase wiring

Power Installation Considerations

| | | | | |

zSeries 800s operate from two fully-redundant single-phase line cords. These redundant line cords allow the system to survive the loss of customer power to either line cord. If power is interrupted to one of the line cords, the other line cord will pick up the entire load and the system will continue to operate without interruption. Therefore each line cord is intended to be be wired to support the entire power load of the system.

Important

Each power cord is intended to be supplied by a different source.

Since the zSeries 800 operates on single-phase power, power redundancy is realized only if the source to each line cord is different. Failure to provide separate power sources will lead to system failure in the event of a power outage. See Appendix D, “Dual Power Installation,” on page D-1 for examples of typical redundant facilities wiring.

The power supplies at the front end of the system use active resistive load synthesis. Harmonic distortion of the current waveform is small enough that it need not be considered in planning the installation. The power factor is typically 0.95.

Notes:

IBM continues to strongly recommend the use of a metal backbox (example shown below) with our line cords using IEC-309 plugs. Although in-line connectors and nonmetalic backboxes are available and compatible, they are not recommended. These recommendations are based on the metal backbox providing:

added level of protection against a miswired phase and ground reversal

some cases, a metal backbox may be better for EMI mitigation

may choose not to use a metal backbox. In this case, please check your local code

You for specific requirements.

The customer must obtain appropriate plugs and receptacles, based on existing electrical codes, where those plugs and receptacles are not provided with the system.

Grounding Specifications

| |

Every single-phase branch circuit must contain two phase conductors (or one phase and neutral) and an insulated equipment-grounding conductor.

For 200 V ac through 240 V ac installations in the United States, the equipment-grounding conductor must be identical in size, insulation material, and gauge to the branch circuit phase conductors, except that it must be green with or without one or more yellow stripes on the insulation. For installations outside the United States, the size of the grounding conductor must be in accordance with local codes.

Conduit must not be used as the only grounding means. However, any conduit or cable shield must be connected at both ends in such a way that it is included in the grounding path in parallel with the grounding conductor it contains. IBM strongly recommends that branch circuit wiring be located in metallic conduit, or be made from shielded cable, if located under a raised floor. Even when not required by local regulations, some form of shield around the branch circuit wiring is preferred as a means of reducing coupling of high-frequency electrical noise into signal and control cables.

There is information about additional recommendations and requirements for equipment grounding on IBM’s Resource Link web site (http://www.ibm.com/servers/resourcelink). See ″General Information for Planning a Physical Site″.

power feeds.

There is no requirement for a delayed circuit breaker protecting the AC supply to the z800, but if you are preparing a new installation site, a delayed circuit breaker is recommended.

Service Outlet (Customer-Supplied)

duplex service tool outlet should be installed within 1.5 m (5 ft) of the system frame. The power requirement is 110V/120V for USA and Canada (other power requirements are country dependent).

The zSeries 800 is supplied with a pair of integrated ThinkPad support elements (SE). One is always active while the other is strictly an alternate. Power for the support elements is supplied by the processor frame, and there are no additional power requirements.

Each SE comes with two communication adapters included. The default combination is one Token Ring adapter and one Ethernet adapter (FC0086). The alternate choice is both SEs with dual Ethernet adapters (FC0087). Regardless of which pair of adapters you choose, both SEs will be configured the same.

you order the Token Ring-Ethernet default combination, a Multistation Access Unit (MAU) is required to operate the Token Ring LAN. The MAU is installed in the A frame and requires no power.

Note: zSeries 890 and 990 are the last zSeries servers that will support Token

Ring LAN connection to the Support Elements.

you order your system with dual Ethernet adapters for each support element, an Ethernet switch is required instead of a MAU. The switch is supplied with every system order under Feature Code 0089.

Multiple adapters in a Hardware Management Console allow that Hardware Management Console to connect with two independent sets of SEs, one set on

Token Ring and a second set on an Ethernet.

This is done to allow for migration from Token Ring environments to Ethernet environments.

Multiple adapters in a Thinkpad SE are intended to allow two different Hardware Management Consoles to have independent paths to the SE.

Token Ring and Ethernet wiring scenario

The “Token Ring and Ethernet” wiring scenario is intended for enterprises that have both Token Ring wiring and Ethernet wiring requirements. This scenario is included to provide the possibility of controlling the Support Elements from both a Token Ring Hardware Management Console and an Ethernet Hardware Management Console at the same time.

This wiring scenario is supported by the default set of adapters available with the Support Elements and the optional Token Ring adapter on the Hardware Management Console. The Token Ring adapter assumes the use of a 16 Mbit Token Ring facility. The Ethernet features assume the use of 10/100 Mbit Ethernet facilities, requiring the use of CAT-5 Ethernet cabling.

For this scenario, the three communication protocols (SNA, TCP/IP and NetBios) used in Support Element-to-Hardware Management Console communication are defined for both the Token Ring and the Ethernet adapters of the Support Elements. The Token Ring wiring is connected using the MAU as described above on page 4-3. The Ethernet wiring is connected from the Support Elements

Cable Installation Planning

Before you place your cable order, consider your future growth needs. You may wish to order cables longer than you need right now to avoid expansion problems in the future.

processor packaging evolves, internal locations for various cable connections may shift, necessitating longer cables, even though the floor locations of connected devices have not changed.

The zSeries 800 family recognizes industry trends toward the use of standardized channel cable connectors. The same types of fiber optic connectors used in local area and storage area networks are also used to connect channel features in the zSeries 800.

Following are:

cable strain relief and ensure design performance. Descriptions of the channel features for the zSeries 800 system, including the

Fiber Quick Connect trunking system for ESCON cables.

Note: The Fiber Quick Connect trunking system cannot be used in a non-raised

floor installation. There is not enough space to obtain correct cable bend radius at the tailgate exit area.

zSeries Fiber Cabling Service

The connectivity environment has become much more complex, and proper planning and installation of fiber cabling is critical to maximize the benefits of high speed protocols such as FICON, Fibre Channel Protocol, Coupling Facility links and Gigabit Ethernet. These protocols require planning for different fiber types, new fiber optic connectors, and current and future data rates to determine optimal connectivity and cabling options.

IBM Global Services provides a fixed-price services offering that includes planning and consulting with you about your cabling choices, and ordering, labeling, and installing the correct cables for your system. IBM Network Integration and Deployment Services for zSeries fiber cabling provides the right level of services and products needed to quickly and efficiently integrate your zSeries 800 system into the IT infrastructure and minimize installation costs.

Otherwise, develop the IOCP statements necessary to define your configuration and use the level of the ICP IOCP program that supports the new processor to verify the input statements. You do not need to initially assign PCHID values to the channel paths in your configuration. You can use the CHPID Mapping Tool, available from Resource Link, to aid you in assigning PCHIDs to CHPIDs. HCM and HCD users must build an IOCP input data set from a validated work IODF and use this as input

Chapter 7. Parallel Sysplex

Parallel Sysplex Planning

This chapter is intended to provide guidance to those customers who operate in a Parallel Sysplex environment. A Parallel Sysplex typically involves multiple processors and coupling facilities, shared I/O devices, and a host of interconnection possibilities. Detailed planning for a Parallel Sysplex is essential to meet technical objectives, such as performance and high availability, within the constraints of a specific raised floor configuration. Consider using the zSeries Fiber Optic Cabling Service to plan your sysplex environment. A list of tasks the Service can perform is provided under “zSeries Fiber Cabling Service” on page 6-1 Different technologies for servers, links and coupling facilities affect your ability to configure a productive sysplex. Following are some guidelines to help you better plan for multiple system interconnection.

The basic premise for a successful Parallel Sysplex installation is to centralize the physical location of the coupling facilities, and then position the sysplex servers around that center.

Position the coupling facilities (or servers with internal coupling facilities) in the center of an open area of raised floor large enough to accommodate all of the servers and other coupling facilities to which you want to connect.

Central Coupling Facilities

= 610 mm (24 in) floor tiles

= Cool aisle, 1.22 meters (48 inches) wide

= Perforated floor tile

= Exhaust (heated air from equipment)

Use physical planning information for each type of server/coupling facility you intend to add to the Parallel Sysplex to help determine how much floor space you will need.

Remember to consider weight distribution, service clearances, power, and cooling for each piece of equipment you want to include.

Arrange the sysplex in two rows, with the fronts of servers and coupling facilities facing each other (see the illustration under “Considerations for Multiple System Installations” on page 2-9). Allow a 1.22 meter (48 inch) aisle width between the rows. Although this may be a larger aisle than you have used before, your Parallel Sysplex will benefit from the improvement in cooling that a wider aisle provides (see the illustration under “Considerations for Multiple System Installations” on page 2-9).

Note: The system air flow illustration shows a minimum aisle width of 941 mm

(37 in). Although this width is adequate for a congested computer room floor, it is the minimum you should use. An aisle 1.22 m (48 in) wide will

7-1

Page 78

Level 04a, June 21, 2004

better serve the cooling and cabling needs of a Parallel Sysplex configuration.

Central Coupling Facilities

= 610 mm (24 in) floor tiles

= Cool aisle, 1.22 meters (48 inches) wide

= Perforated floor tile

= Exhaust (heated air from equipment)

Sysplex connections will be made using ISC-3 and ICB-3 link cabling.

Note: Integrated cluster bus (ICB) links use a Self-Timed Interface (STI) to

perform coupling communication between systems. If you are planning to install integrated cluster bus channels, you will have to place connected devices closer to each other than 10 meters to allow for cable routing between equipment. Allow 7 meters maximum of real space between system frames.

the Parallel Sysplex evolves, you may eventually exceed the 7 meter usable

length of ICB cables at the ends of a two-row configuration. At this point, it may

possible to add a third and fourth row, using ISC links, which provide connectivity over greater distances than ICB links. With the equipment in these new rows centered on the original central coupling facilities, the Parallel Sysplex now assumes the shape of a diamond.

= 610 mm (24 in) floor tiles

following these guidelines, you will be able to configure a Parallel Sysplex, using the minimum amount of floor space, that meets your performance and availability objectives.

Appendix D. Dual Power Installation

| | | | |

The zSeries 800 models are designed with a fully redundant power system. Each computer has two line cords attached to two power input ports which, in turn, power

fully redundant power distribution system within the computer. To take full advantage of the redundancy/reliability that is built into the computer system, the system is intended to be powered from two distribution panels.

Each power cord is intended to be supplied by a different source.

Here we will present three examples of redundancy.

Example 1 (redundant distribution panel and switch gear)

this example, the computer receives power from two separate power distribution panels. Each distribution panel receives power from a separate piece of building switch gear. This level of redundancy is not available in most facilities.

Example 2 (redundant distribution panel)

this example, the computer receives power from two separate power distribution panels. The two distribution panels receive power from the same piece of building switch gear. Most facilities should be able to achieve this level of redundancy. In this case, loss of switch gear (building power) will result in system outage, but loss

one distribution panel will not.

Example 3 (single distribution panel)

this example, the computer receives power from two separate circuit breakers in

single power panel. This does not make use of the redundancy provided by the processor. It is, however, acceptable if a second power distribution panel is not available.

This type of power distribution will result in system outage in the event of a power failure at either the switch gear or the distribution panel.
