We've ordered a pair of 10G networks switches (+optics) for esams to support the new hardware needed for T86663. However, given the final configuration of the systems quotes being reviewed/approved now (20x systems @ 410W each), our power capacity limits in esams (4.6kW per rack) doesn't allow for installing all of these systems in just two racks supported by just two switches. It's unknown at this time if that power limit is merely due to our PDU configuration, or is a limit on power feed or thermal dissipation from the datacenter (and if it's one of the latter, whether we can easily get that upgraded without moving locations within the DC).

However, given the final configuration of the systems quotes being reviewed/approved now (20x systems @ 410W each, on top of the existing cp30xx power reqs), our power capacity limits in esams (4.6kW per rack) doesn't allow for installing all of these systems in just two racks supported by just two switches. It's unknown at this time if that power limit is merely due to our PDU configuration, or is a limit on power feed or thermal dissipation from the datacenter (and if it's one of the latter, whether we can easily get that upgraded without moving locations within the DC).
