P3AM-3042-07ENZ0
Chapter 1 Overview
This chapter provides an overview of the ETERNUS DX60/DX80/DX90 features, and specifications.
1.1 System Features
Special features of the ETERNUS DX60/DX80/DX90 are shown below:
■ Space and Energy Savings
• Compact design makes effective use of rack space
- Three models are available; ETERNUS DX60, ETERNUS DX80, and ETERNUS DX90. All
models are compactly-designed to use rack space efficiently, coming in 2U size (*1)
enclosures.
*1: 2U = Two 19-inch rack units = 88mm device height
- Two types of controller enclosure and drive enclosures (optional) are available; those for
3.5" disks and those for 2.5" disks.
Up to twelve 3.5" disks can be installed in the 3.5" type enclosures, and up to twenty-four
2.5" disks can be installed in the 2.5" type enclosures. The appropriate drive configuration
should be decided based on the purpose, applications and onsite installation space available for the ETERNUS DX60/DX80/DX90.
- Up to 24 disks can be installed in the ETERNUS DX60 and up to 120 disks in the ETER-
NUS DX80/DX90.
• Energy savings by the latest technology
Power efficiency and energy savings are achieved with advanced technology.
• Eco-mode to reduce environmental load
Using the Eco-mode function to start and stop the spindle rotation in the disk for each RAID
group during the specified hour. Stop the spindle rotation when there is no access to the disk
to reduce power consumption and decrease environmental load.
• Visualization of power consumption and ambient temperature
Power consumption and ambient temperature for the entire ETERNUS DX60/DX80/DX90
can be checked using the (optional) "ETERNUS SF Storage Cruiser" integrated management

performed by GUI that uses a Web browser (hereafter referred to as "GUI"), or CLI that uses
commands and command scripts.
Settings required for the ETERNUS DX60/DX80/DX90 initial installation can be easily
performed by following the GUI wizard and inputting parameters for displayed setting items.
The ETERNUS DX60/DX80/DX90 can be configured, and its status can be displayed and
monitored using GUI or CLI.
• ETERNUS SF Express
ETERNUS SF Express is a storage system introduction and operation support software for
the user who had put off the introduction of the storage system up to now because of
"Difficulty" and "Introduction and operation cost increase".
ETERNUS SF Express is an easy to use software addition to ETERNUS DX Disk storage
system, in order to facilitate management of ETERNUS DX Disk storage system as well as
leverage ETERNUS DX Disk storage system functionality like Snapshots, Cloning or
Replication.
For details of ETERNUS SF Express and how to download it, refer to the following web-site:
http://www.fujitsu.com/global/support/computing/storage/software/esf-express.html
■ High scalability and versatile connectivity
• Utilizes the latest disk technology
Both 3.5" SAS disks
(*1)
(300GB/450GB/600GB; 15,000rpm), and 2.5" SAS disks
(*1)
(146GB/
300GB/450GB/600GB; 10,000rpm) are available.
For data backup and archival purposes the ETERNUS DX60/DX80/DX90 is able to use large
capacity, highly cost effective 3.5" Nearline SAS disks
(*1)
(750GB/1TB/2TB; 7,200rpm).
Flash memory based 3.5" SSDs
(*2)
(100GB/200GB) and 2.5" SSDs
(*2)
(100GB/200GB) are
also available (except for the ETERNUS DX60, which does not support SSDs).
*1: SAS: Serial Attached SCSI
*2: SSD: Solid State Drive
• Supports capacity expansion during system operation
- Disks and drive enclosures can be added during the system operation.
- RAID group capacity can be expanded by adding disk from the unit of one.
- Volume can be expanded during the system operation. Even when the work load
increased rapidly, the ETERNUS DX60/DX80/DX90 flexibly expand the volume capacity
with no interruption of the operation.
• High connectivity supports the multi-platform environment
- FC-SAN, IP-SAN, and DAS environments are supported, with Fibre Channel (maximum
transfer speed: 8Gbit/s), iSCSI (maximum transfer speed: 1Gbit/s), and SAS (maximum
transfer speed: 3Gbit/s) host interfaces being used, respectively.

P3AM-3042-07ENZ0
- The ETERNUS DX60/DX80/DX90 supports multiple Operating Systems such as UNIX,
Linux, Windows®, and VMware®, and can be connected as a storage system for
PRIMEQUEST, SPARC Enterprise, PRIMERGY servers as well as for UNIX/IA servers of
other companies. Also the RAID aggregation using SAN (Storage Area Network) is
available.
■ Data integrity with high-speed backup
• Nearline SAS disks for data backup and archiving
- Using large capacity / cost effective Nearline SAS disks allows low cost D2D (Disk to Disk)
backup and high-speed recovery in the case of unexpected failure.
- Storing the less frequently accessed data such as archive data in the Nearline SAS disks
allows easy reading. Nearline SAS disks and SAS disks can be installed in the same drive
enclosure.
• Backup function
Using the Advanced Copy function allows the high-speed copying of disk volumes at any
given time.
• Data integrity against disasters
Using the Remote Advanced Copy functions (enhanced Advanced Copy functions), data can
be copied between multiple ETERNUS DX90s without burdening the server. In addition, using
the Extended Remote Advanced Copy functions, data can be copied between ETERNUS
DX90s in the remote place that are connected with SAN-WAN-SAN topology, which enables
duplication of database and backup to a remote place in the case of disaster.
■ High reliability supports 24/7/365 operation
• Duplication of important components
Important components such as controllers (for dual-controller model), power supply units, and
fans are duplicated to continue the operation in the case of unexpected failure. Also this
allows the hot swapping of failed components with the device power on. In addition, the latest
firmware can be applied during system operation.
• Various supported RAID levels
The ETERNUS DX60/DX80/DX90 supports RAID5+0 that is superior to RAID5 in reliability
and performance, and RAID6 that responds to the double failure of disks, as well as RAID1,
RAID1+0, and RAID5. A flexible RAID configuration can be selected.
• Redundant copy ensures disk redundancy
The ETERNUS DX60/DX80/DX90 diagnostic routines test the disks in order to predict failures
before they happen. When a disk requires preventive maintenance, a hot spare is
automatically switched in to replace it, providing continued data redundancy and stable
operation.
• Block Guard ensures data integrity
The ETERNUS DX60/DX80/DX90 adds check codes and check them at multiple checkpoints
on data transfer path to ensure the data integrity.

• System Capacitor Unit (SCU)
A SCU that does not need to be regularly replaced is installed as a backup power source in
case of a power failure. If the power fails, the SCU enables the cache memory data to be
saved to flash memory. Therefore, unlike a battery, the SCU does not have a time limit to save
data. The SCU is charged so quickly that write performance is recovered right after power
recovery.
■ E-mail notification
If an error occurs in the ETERNUS DX60/DX80/DX90, the details can be sent to a specified email address.
■ Strengthening security against information leaks
• Data encryption to prevent information leaks
Data can be encrypted and written. Data encryption can prevent information leaks caused by
fraudulent decoding even if the disk is stolen.
• Protection against fraudulent access
The ETERNUS DX60/DX80/DX90 supports SSL/SSH that encrypts and communicates
information on the network. This protects against malicious use of data and fraudulent access
to devices via a Web browser (GUI) or CLI.
■ RoHS compliance
The ETERNUS DX60/DX80/DX90 complies with RoHS, as mandated by the Council of Europe
and our board of directors. RoHS limits the use in electric and electronic equipment of six specific
chemicals: lead, hexavalent chromium, mercury, cadmium, PBB (polybrominated biphenyl), and
PBDE (polybrominated diphenyl ether). In addition, lead-free soldering is used for all printed-wiring boards.
Data encryption may not be possible for some configurations.

1.2 Configuration
This chapter describes items to be noted before configuring the ETERNUS DX60/DX80/DX90
systems.
1.2.1 RAID Level
This section describes the supported RAID level and usage (RAID level selection criteria), and
RAID group configuration.
■ Supported RAID levels and mechanism
The ETERNUS DX60/DX80/DX90 supports the following RAID levels.
• RAID0 (striping)
• RAID1 (mirroring)
• RAID1+0 (striping of pairs of disks for mirroring)
• RAID5 (striping with distributed parity blocks)
• RAID5+0 (double striping with distributed parity blocks) (*1)
• RAID6 (striping with distributed double parity blocks) (*2)
*1: RAID5+0 is a RAID system in which the data on RAID5 volumes is then RAID0 striped.
*2: RAID6 ensures data safety and continues system operation in the case of a second
malfunction within a single RAID group.
CAUTION
Do
• Remember that a RAID0 configuration is not redundant. This means
that if a RAID0 disk fails, the data will not be recoverable.
Therefore, using RAID1, RAID1+0, RAID5, RAID5+0, or RAID6
configuration is recommended.

• RAID1+0 (striping of pairs of disks for mirroring)
RAID1+0 combines the performance of RAID0 (striping) with the reliability of RAID1
(mirroring).
Figure 1.3 RAID1+0 concept
• RAID5 (striping with distributed parity)
Data divided into units of blocks and allocated across multiple disks together with parity
information created from the data. If one disk fails, the remaining data and parity blocks are
sufficient to allow the recovery of the lost data.
