Environmental Requirements
The following table describes environmental specifications for Exadata Server X10M.
Caution:
Set conditions to the optimal temperature and humidity ranges to minimize the chance of downtime due to component failure. Operating the servers for extended periods at or near the operating range limits, or installing them in an environment where they remain at or near nonoperating range limits could significantly increase hardware component failure.
