Temperature issues
Several problems may affect the devices if ambient temperature is higher than 35C (95F). Refer to the product description document of your particular appliance model for details regarding acceptable temperature ranges.
Thoroughly check all aspects of the rack environment, ensuring that:
Nearby equipment is not overly warm.
Room temperature is within specifications.
Adequate AC power is supplied to the devices.
The front and back of the NetBackup Archive Appliance/NetBackup Appliance are clear of any obstructions. Air must flow easily and continually from the front of the appliance to the back of the appliance.
