Enabling provisioning match recommendations

Information about the selected rack is listed in the Provisioning Match pane to guide you on available space, power, and cooling as you position equipment in the rack layout. For example, if you are using the Installation Requirements pane to look for the best rack in which to add a new piece of equipment, but the system does not advise you to add it to a rack you assume is suited for the equipment, the messages in the Provisioning Match pane will help you investigate why it is not recommended.

Select the Provisioning Match pane below the layout to see how well a rack meets the requirements of the equipment you want to add. To enable and refresh the recommendations, click a piece of equipment in Genomes (for adding equipment) or Navigation (for moving equipment), and then click the rack in which you want to place the equipment.

The LED symbol next to the information identifies the status of the information, see descriptions for each status message.
