A new release of the Sun Rack II capacity calculator is available on eSTEP portal.

Just uploaded release 51 of the calculator.

The following changes have been integrated:

• Added LOD date of 30 NOV 2014 for ST25xx M2 (NEP LOD – other customers LOD is 31 MAY 2014)
• Moved 7420 to EOL HW due to met LOD
• Bug correction : X4-2 and X4-2L weren’t working.
• Bug correction : ES1-24 RU are now correctly shown (2 ES1-24 only takes 1 RU)

The tool calculates all the data necessary (power requirements, BTU, number of rack units, needed power outlets etc.) while inserting the many different kind of HW equipment in a
Sun Rack II cabinet (version 1000 and 1200). It takes into consideration most of the available servers, storage devices, tapes, and Netra products. There are also a couple of third party products which are taken into account.

The spreadsheet can be downloaded from eSTEP portal.
