    NS7 System With a Rack-Mounted UPS Figure 21 shows an example of a supported configuration in a NS7 system with the left PDUs connected to one or more rack-mounted UPS and the right PDUs connected directly to the utility power. The rack-mounted UPS is connected to the utility power. Figure 21 NS7 System With a Rack-Mounted UPS When OSM detects that one power rail is running on UPS and the other power rail has lost power, OSM logs an event indicating the beginning of the configured ride-through time period.

    SAS Disk Enclosures With a Rack-Mounted UPS In this supported configuration, only SAS Disk Enclosures are protected by the rack-mounted UPS. The rack(s) with SAS Disk Enclosures and/or Storage CLIMs are supported by one or more rack-mounted UPS. Figure 22 shows an example of this supported configuration in a NS7 system with the left PDUs connected to the rack-mounted UPS and the right PDUs connected to the utility power.

    Non-Supported UPS Configurations This section identifies non-supported UPS configurations and explains why these configurations are not supported. It also explains what you must do to prevent data loss. CAUTION: If disk drive write caching is enabled in the NS7 system, do not use any of these non-supported UPS configurations.

    NS7 System With Data Center UPS, Both Power Rails In this non-supported configuration, a NS7 system is installed in a Tier-I, Tier-II or Tier-III data center. The data center tier classification is defined by the Uptime Institute Tier Classifications Define Site Infrastructure White Paper. IMPORTANT: If you use this configuration, there is no guarantee your data center will never lose power.
  • Page 88 attribute and how to disable WCE, see the SCF Reference Manual for the Storage Subsystem (G06.28+, H06.05+, J06.03+, L15.02+). When the utility power is restored, you can enable WCE. During a utility power failure, the system can continue to run until the data center UPS runs out of power or until it shuts down.

    NS7 System With Two Rack-Mounted UPS in Parallel Figure 26 shows an example of a non-supported configuration in a NS7 system with the left PDUs connected to a rack-mounted UPS and the right PDUs connected to a different rack-mounted UPS. In this configuration, OSM manages and monitors the rack-mounted UPSs. Figure 26 NS7 System With Two Rack-Mounted UPS in Parallel OSM has the capability to monitor both UPSs, but it does not have the logic to initiate the controlled shutdown of the I/O operations and processors when utility power fails in this configuration.

    NS7 System With Cascading Rack-Mounted UPS and Data Center UPS Figure 27 shows an example of a non-supported configuration in a NS7 system with the left PDUs connected to the rack-mounted UPS and the right PDUs connected to a data center UPS. To create a cascading UPS configuration, the rack-mounted UPS is connected to the data center UPS.
  • Page 92 Once the downstream UPS is in this state, it still might not immediately perceive stable input power. The downstream UPS is thus compromised until it achieves a lock on stable input power and is able to recharge its batteries. Such problems are very difficult to predict. Their occurrence is a function of the output characteristics of the primary UPS, the input characteristics of the downstream UPS, and the load characteristics of the other devices deriving power from the upstream UPS.
