Are there any limitations mixing 4 '465's' and 2 '685' in the same rack? We are in a pinch for floor space and want to put six chassis into a single rack. I've heard that HP only supports up to three chassis in a single rack.
Inquiring minds want to know...

Re: Limitations Question
I have heard same thing. I understand it relates to air-conditioning issues.

Re: Limitations Question
>>Are there any limitations mixing 4 '465's' and 2 '685' in the same rack
-- No there is no such limitation.
>>want to put six chassis into a single rack
-- What is rack height you have? It depends on type of Enclosure , Power and cooling you need.
e.g: c7000 is 10U and max rack height is 42U so at max you can put 4 c7000. If its c3000 then its 6U so you can put 6 but you need enough power to power them on and enough cooling.
hope you get my point. just be specific what you have. Enclosure and rack type?

Re: Limitations Question
I assumed that Chuck uses "rack" instead of "enclosure"...and wants to put the 6 servers in a single enclosure(c3000 maybe, because they fit exactly), can be I misunderstood...

Re: Limitations Question
it makes sense :)
Checked the c-class Site Planning Guide
http://h20000.www2.hp.com/bc/docs/support/SupportManual/c01167165/c01167165.pdf
it doesn't contain info about c3000(due to release date maybe).
In c3000 Setup and installation Guide :
http://h20000.www2.hp.com/bc/docs/support/SupportManual/c01167165/c01167165.pdf
On page 8 there is :
"You can install up to seven 6U enclosures in a 42U rack."
For rack-free install it is written to not put enclosures on tiop of another ones.
For rack install nothing is mentioned..can be thermal or heavy load issues, but haven't heard...
