Mostly just common sense such as: disabling the sprinkler systems and installing Halogen Gas, separate power supply to the building, separate air conditioning unit, alarms for temperature, security measures to prevent access to non-authorized employees, raised floors for cabling, dust filters, preventing bob from eating his lunch in the computer room, etc.

Another thing that should be considered is the location of the data center/computer room to minimize loss in case of fire, act of god (or mother nature for you atheists), theft, an employee going postal, etc.

As far as standard goes, I never saw anything to that aspect.

Satar
