Cabinet builds for 9400 cabinet configurations use build rules to define a valid system configuration. Cabinets can contain single or multiple cliques or systems.

Build Rules

Install components in sequential order per the rules below, with maximum numbers of each limited by the power type used in the cabinet.

The maximum number of switches (not including server management switches) is four, except in the BYNET cabinet configuration, which can have up to eight second-tier BYNET switches in addition to two first-tier BYNET switches.

Two Dell X1026, Dell X1052, or Dell N1148T-ON 1 Gb Ethernet switches are installed per cabinet, in the attic and U-space 1, for Server Management in all 9400 cabinet builds.
