Introduction to the DL3D 1500/3000
The DL3D 1500 and DL3D 3000 appliances are enterprise disk backup
solutions that integrate data de-duplication and replication
technology to provide backup and disaster recovery (DR) protection
across distributed corporate environments. The Data de-duplication
refers to the elimination of redundant data. The DL3D 1500 and
DL3D 3000 disk-based backup appliances use data de-duplication
technology to increase disk capacities by 10 to 50 times, and make
wide area network (WAN) replication a practical, cost-effective part
of disaster recovery planning. Scalable to 148 TB of raw capacity, the
DL3D appliance is designed for larger sites and corporate data
centers.
Major features of the DL3D 1500 and DL3D 3000 include:
◆ Up to 148 TB of raw capacity
◆ Data de-duplication and multi-site remote replication
◆ High performance for enterprise scale protection
Advanced data de-duplication increases disk retention for backup data
The DL3D 1500/3000 appliance leverages data de-duplication
technology to increase the role that disks can play in the protection of
critical data. With the DL3D appliance, you can retain 10 to 50 times
more backup data on fast recovery disks than with conventional
storage systems.
Remote replication of backup data provides automated disaster recovery protection
With the DL3D 1500/3000, you can transmit de-duplicated backup
data from single or multiple remote sites to a central, secure location
to reduce or eliminate media handling. DL3D replication is
asynchronous, automated, and operates as a background process.
Enterprise features provide secure, centralized repository
With up to 148 TB of native capacity and 8 TB/hour of ingest
performance, the DL3D appliance has active-active architecture to
eliminate single points of failure. In addition, policy-based
20

Data reduction
Data de-duplication
About the DL3D 1500/3000
de-duplication lets you select either scheduled or immediate
techniques. Data storage is available in both virtual tape library
(VTL) and network attached storage (NAS) formats.
Data reduction is the process of reducing the amount of storage
capacity required to store data. The DL3D 1500/3000 appliances
provide two techniques to optimize the storage space required on
your system:
◆ Data de-duplication
◆ Hardware compression
The DL3D 1500/3000 appliance can reduce the amount of storage
capacity required by using data de-duplication. The DL3D series disk
backup and replication systems use data de-duplication technology
to increase the role that disks can play in data protection. This
advantage lets IT departments cost-effectively retain months of
backup data on disk for faster, more reliable restores and more data
recovery points. The DL3D 1500/3000 supports immediate and
scheduled de-duplication policies (as well as no de-duplication) on
individual shares or VTLs.
◆ Immediate de-duplication - As the DL3D appliance ingests the
backup data, the DL3D writes the data to disk in its native format.
The de-duplication process is initiated when the first 256 MB of
data is received and continues during data ingest.
◆ Scheduled de-duplication - This policy allows you to specify a
time window during which de-duplication will not occur.
Typically, this time window is the backup window. It allows the
backup to be ingested at maximum rates for time critical backup
windows. De-duplication begins on the data (already present in
native format on disk) as soon as the schedule window expires.
The de-duplication process divides the backup data into variable
length blocks and creates a signature for each block. For each
signature, the de-duplication process determines if any other
identical signature already exists, and if not, it compresses the unique
block and writes it to its data pool. If it finds any matches to these
signatures, it replaces that redundant block with a pointer to the
Data reduction
21
About the DL3D 1500/3000
Hardware compression
unique block so that only one copy of that data block will exist on
disk. This description (signatures and pointers) of the de-duplicated
data is referred to as the metadata index and is stored separately from
the backup data on a RAID 6 LUN on the disk array in the DL3D 3000
and on a RAID1 LUN in the DL3D 1500. A metadata index is stored
for all data de-duplicated within the DL3D.
As additional backup data is written to the DL3D, its data is also
broken down into variable length blocks whose signatures are
compared against those for existing unique blocks. Only new unique
blocks are stored along with pointers to existing unique blocks in the
appropriate sequence that can be used to reconstitute the data. The
sections “Configuring and Managing Disk Backup” on page 95 and
“Configuring and Managing Virtual Tape Libraries” on page 55
contain more information on enabling data de-duplication.
The DL3D 1500 and DL3D 3000 appliances are configured with
hardware-based compression cards. These compression cards
installed in your system allow unique data that has been through the
de-duplication process to be further compressed at a ratio of 2:1. This
enables you to maximize the storage capacity of your system as well
as increase overall backup performance.

EMC DL3D 1500 and DL3D 3000 Administrator’s Guide
Remote replication
About the DL3D 1500/3000
Most backup occurs on local devices, making it difficult to deploy
disk backup when you require disaster recovery protection. DL3D
series solutions combine data de-duplication with replication to
decrease the bandwidth required to move backup data over networks
and between sites. This solution makes it practical and cost-effective
for you to replicate backup data over WANs for secure,
network-based disaster recovery protection, and it lets you combine
rapid, local restores with sound disaster recovery protection. With
DL3D series replication, you transmit only unique data from up to 10
sites to a central location using any DL3D model. DL3D series
replication is an asynchronous, automated background process that
includes the option of AES-128 encryption of data in transit. This
model for protecting the distributed enterprise lets you combine disk,
replication, and tape for an optimal combination of performance,
simplicity, and security.

Powering up the appliance
This section lists the steps required to power up the storage system
and the server.
Powering up the storage system
Verify the following:
❑ The two power cords for the storage processor enclosure 2 (SPE2)
power supplies are plugged into the standby power supplies
(SPS) and the power cord retention bails are in place.
❑ Power cords for the first disk array enclosure (DAE3P) {enclosure
address 0 (EA 0), bus 0} are plugged into the SPSs and the power
cord retention bails are in place.
❑ The power cords for the SPSs and any other DAE3Ps are plugged
into the cabinet’s power strips.
❑ Any other devices in the cabinet are correctly installed and ready
for powerup.

Powering down the appliance
This section lists the steps required to power down the storage
system and the server. You must power down the server before you
power down the storage system.
Powering down the DL3D server
To shut down the DL3D:
1. Access the Utilities page. See Accessing utilities.
2. Click Node Management.
3. On the Node Management page, click Shutdown.
4. Click Apply.
The DL3D server gracefully stops all running services and shuts
down.
Powering down the storage system
26
To power down the storage system:
1. Stop all I/O activity to the SPE. Stopping the I/O allows the
storage processor (SP) to destage cache data, and may take some
time. The length of time depends on the size of the cache, the
amount of data in the cache, the type of data in the cache, and the
target location on the disks, but it is typically less than one
minute. We recommend that you wait five minutes before
proceeding.
2. After five minutes, use the power switch on each SPS to turn off
power. This disconnects power to the SPE and the first DAE (EA
0, bus 0). You do not need to turn off power to the other connected
DAEs.
CAUTION
Unless there is an emergency, never turn off the power to the rack,
such as the cabinet door switches, or unplug any of the AC cables
going to the SPE to disconnect power.
The storage system powers down within two minutes.
