You are installing HPE ProLiant servers into a rack that will be fully loaded. You also need to install four power distribution units (PDUs) in the rack.
How should you install the PDUs to maximize power distribution and space efficiency?
A. in the bottom bay of the rack with the outlets facing the front
B. horizontally on extension bars mounted directly to the frame for improved clearance
C. at the top of the rack with the cables running between the RETMA rails
D. vertically, side by side on both sides of the rack with the outlets facing the center
Agree with Samir
Referring to HPE ATP – Hybrid IT Solutions V2 OFFICIAL CERTIFICATION STUDY GUIDE (EXAM HPE0-V14)
Install vertical PDUs on either side of the rack with outlets facing back for easy access and improved clearance. For higher power density configurations, install them side by side on both sides of the rack with the outlets facing the center. Horizontal/Modular PDUs offer a modular architecture designed for data center customers who want to maximize power distribution and space efficiencies.
So my answer is B
Question says Rack is fully loaded.
Answer: D
From Official Study Guide
Horizontal/modular PDUs offer a modular architecture designed for data center customers who want to maximize power distribution and space efficiencies.
