Physical Planning
A System z10 BC feature may be ordered to allow use of
the z10 BC in a non-raised fl oor environment. This capabil-
ity may help ease the cost of entry into the z10 BC; a raised
fl oor may not be necessary for some infrastructures.
The non-raised fl oor z10 BC implementation is designed to
meet all electromagnetic compatibility standards. Feature
#7998 must be ordered if the z10 BC is to be used in a non-
raised fl oor environment. A Bolt-down kit (#7992) is also
available for use with a non-raised fl oor z10 BC, providing
frame stabilization and bolt-down hardware to help secure
a frame to a non-raised fl oor. Bolt-down kit (#7992) may be
ordered for initial box or MES starting January 28, 2009.
The Installation Manual for Physical Planning (GC28-6875)
is available on Resource Link and should always be referred
to for detailed planning information.
