Chapter 1 Hardware Configurations

IMPORTANT

2.5" disk

This chapter explains hardware configurations for the ETERNUS DX Disk storage system.

1.1 Controller Enclosure

This section explains the main components in the controller enclosure.

The controller enclosure contains disks installed in the front, and controllers and power supply units in the rear. Since the power supply units are redundant, operations can continue even if one of them fails. There are two models: a single-controller type and a dual-controller type. For a dual-controller type, operations can continue even if one of the controllers fails.

• The single-controller type differs from the dual-controller type by the fol-

lowing features:

- The controller and expander are not duplicated.

- Hot maintenance or swapping of the controller and expander is not

possible.

- Concurrent firmware loading or update of the controller firmware and

expander firmware is not possible.

- Multipath connection to a single server is not available.

• Fujitsu recommends that the dual-controller types, in which the controller

and expander are duplicated, be used in a system where a high level of reliability is required.

Chapter 2 ETERNUS DX Disk Storage System Installation

2.4 Installation Environment

Sufficient consideration of the installation environment should be taken to ensure proper use of the ETERNUS DX Disk storage system. Using the ETERNUS DX Disk storage system in an environment that does not satisfy the installation environment requirements may cause a failure to occur with the ETERNUS DX Disk storage system.

2.4.1 Air Conditioning

It is important to consider the flows of cooling air (intake air) and exhaust air for the installation location. The temperature in some ETERNUS DX Disk storage systems may rise when exhaust air is taken in from other ETERNUS DX Disk storage systems. In addition, check other factors that might affect the usage environment temperature, such as the room size, whether other ETERNUS DX Disk storage systems are installed, and how many people are present in the room. When installing air conditioning, the ambient temperature should be considered.

● Ambient temperature

An ETERNUS DX Disk storage system is cooled by taking in air through the front intakes and pushing out the exhaust air through the rear of the ETERNUS DX Disk storage system. If the intake air temperature does not meet the ambient environment conditions, a temperature error occurs and the power of the ETERNUS DX Disk storage system is shut down.

- Front intake air temperature

Make sure that the front intake air temperature is between 5 and 40

- Rear exhaust air temperature

For example, when the intake air temperature is 40 or higher. Check the heat generation amount and the exhaust air amount that are listed in "2.1

Installation Specifications" (page 26) for the necessary cooling capacity of air conditioning.

2.4.2 Earthquake Resistance

Take the necessary measures (e.g. secure the rack to the floor or wall) to prevent a rack in which an ETERNUS DX Disk storage system is installed from falling down when earthquakes occur. Earthquake countermeasures vary depending on the installation location, the floor conditions, and the type of rack that is used. Contact your installation contractor for more details regarding earthquake countermeasure methods and how work should be conducted.

2.4.3 Load Bearing Capacity for Floors

Make sure that the following relationship between the load bearing capacity of the floor and the weight of the ETERNUS DX Disk storage system is maintained.

(Load bearing capacity of the floor) > (ETERNUS DX Disk storage system weight area that includes service areas)

If the condition above is not satisfied, additional measures are required to ensure sufficient load bearing capacity. Contact your installation contractor for details about the necessary measures that must be taken.

2.5 Outlet/Socket Specifications

Power can be supplied to the ETERNUS DX Disk storage system from two power sources because each enclosure has two power supply units. During normal operation, each of the power sources supplies half of the necessary power. When one of the power supply lines fails, all of the necessary power is supplied from only one power source.

Using the same power supply condition for all of the power supply units is recommended so that different power supply conditions (such as whether power distribution units are used or not and input voltage) are not used for the ETERNUS DX Disk storage system.

This section explains the power connection specifications of the ETERNUS DX Disk storage systems.

Chapter 3 Connections

This chapter explains connections for the ETERNUS DX Disk storage system.

3.1 Host Connections

FC, iSCSI, and SAS host interface models are available for the ETERNUS DX60 S2. The server and the ETERNUS DX Disk storage system can be connected directly or via a switch.

3.1.1 Host Interfaces

This section describes each host interface.

■ FC (Fibre Channel)

FC supports two connection topologies: Fibre Channel Arbitrated Loop (FC-AL) and Fabric. Direct connections and switch connections to servers are available. The maximum transfer speed is 4Gbit/s.

When FC switches are used, zoning should be set for the FC switches to ensure the security of data.

■ iSCSI

Direct connections and switch connections to servers are available. The maximum transfer speed is 1Gbit/s. In order to maintain iSCSI performance, the iSCSI network should be physically separated from other types of networks (such as networks for Internet access and file transfers).

• CHAP

CHAP authentication can prevent unauthorized access. The following CHAP authentication methods are supported:

- Unidirectional CHAP

- Bidirectional CHAP

• Jumbo Frame

Enabling Jumbo Frame makes data transfer more efficient by increasing the amount of data that can be transferred for each Frame.

ETERNUS DX60 S2 Disk storage system User’s Guide -Site Planning-

Chapter 3 Connections

3.1 Host Connections

■ SAS

Table 3.1 Ethernet frame capacity (Jumbo Frame settings)

Jumbo Frame settings Ethernet frame capacity

Enabled Up to 9000 bytes

Disabled Up to 1500 bytes

• Confirm that the connected device supports Jumbo Frame before

enabling Jumbo Frame.

• Server-side CPU load can be reduced by using Jumbo Frame.

However, I/O performance may be reduced by 10% to 30%.

• When using a LAN switch that supports the Flow Control function,

disable the Flow Control function.

• When connecting to a server with VMware vSphere 4.0/4.1, disable

the Flow Control function of the LAN switch.

Simple, cost effective, and high performance network storage environment can be configured. Direct connections to servers are available. The maximum transfer speed is 3Gbit/s.

Up to two paths are allowed when the ETERNUS Multipath Driver is used.

3.1.2 Host Connection Path

This section explains the connection configuration between a server Host Bus Adapter (HBA) and an ETERNUS DX Disk storage system host interface port.

■ Single path configuration

A single path configuration connects the ETERNUS DX Disk storage system to a server via a single path. The server cannot access an ETERNUS DX Disk storage system when a component (such as a controller, HBA, switch, or cable) on the path has a problem. The system must be stopped during the replacement of failed components and controller firmware. In a single path connection configuration, the path failover and load balancing functions are not supported. A multipath connection configuration is recommended to maintain availability when a problem occurs.

■ Multipath configuration

A multipath configuration connects the ETERNUS DX Disk storage system to a server via multiple paths (multipath). System reliability is improved due to the path redundancy. For multipath connections, driver software to control multipathing is required. If a path fails, access can continue by using the path failover function that switches access from the failed path to another path. The performance of the system can be improved by using the load balancing function to spread the access load over multiple paths.

ETERNUS DX60 S2 Disk storage system User’s Guide -Site Planning-

To use the load balancing function, four or more paths must be used to connect the server and the ETERNUS DX Disk storage system.

When a server is duplicated in a cluster configuration and the ETERNUS DX Disk storage system is shared by multiple servers, software to control the cluster configuration is required.

ETERNUS DX60 S2 Disk storage system User’s Guide -Site Planning-

When configuring multipathing for reliability, make sure to configure a redundant connection for the controllers of the ETERNUS DX Disk storage system. Configure paths to connect to different controllers (CM#0 and CM#1). Combinations of host interface port numbers (Port#0 and Port#1) in controllers do not need to be taken into consideration.

Mozilla Firefox 3.0.x, 3.5.x, 3.6.x

When using ETERNUS Web GUI to connect the ETERNUS DX Disk storage system, the default port number is 80 for http or 443 for https.

■ LAN for operation management

In an ETERNUS DX Disk storage system, the system administrator logs on to the ETERNUS DX Disk storage system via a LAN to set the RAID configuration, manage operations, and perform maintenance. The computer for operation management that is used for accessing the ETERNUS DX Disk storage system via ETERNUS Web GUI or ETERNUS CLI is called an administration terminal. In addition, the functions that are provided by the management/monitoring server on the LAN can be used. These functions include SNMP (device monitoring), SMTP (e-mail sending), and NTP (time correction).

Various failures that occur in the ETERNUS DX Disk storage system are notified to the remote support center. Remote support connection can be separated from the LAN for operation management.

3.3 Power Supply Connection

Connect the power cords (AC cables) of the ETERNUS DX Disk storage system to the power sockets, the UPS sockets, or the power control unit sockets. Refer to "2.5 Outlet/Socket Specifications" (page 31) of power outlets/sockets.

Two power supply units (PSU#0 and PSU#1) are installed in each enclosure. Make sure that power cords are connected to both of the power supply units.

3.3.1 Input Power Supply Lines

Multiple power supply facilities in the building or UPS units are recommended for power supply redundancy. When the ETERNUS DX Disk storage system power supply is redundantly configured, business can continue even if one of the power lines fails. To connect the ETERNUS DX Disk storage system to power supply facilities, use the following configurations to improve the availability of the power supply facilities if a power supply facility failure occurs.

• Connect the power cords of PSU#0 and PSU#1 to different lines.

• When a power distribution unit is used, separately connect it to line 0 (PSU#0) and line 1

(PSU#1). Alternatively, optimal system design (including the server) may instead lead to the ETERNUS DX Disk storage system being configured with only a single power supply facility or UPS unit. Which configuration is selected will depend on system availability requirement considerations.

3.3 Power Supply Connection

3.3.2 UPS Connection

It is recommended that an Uninterruptible Power Supply System (UPS) be used as the power supply source for the ETERNUS DX Disk storage system to cope with power outages and momentary voltage drops in the normal power supply. Note that when connecting an ETERNUS DX Disk storage system to a UPS with one power supply line, the total value of the power requirements for all the enclosures must not exceed the UPS output capacity. When one of the power supply lines fails for redundantly configured UPS units with two power supply lines, all of the power for the ETERNUS DX Disk storage system must be supplied from the other line. Select a UPS that can supply sufficient power so that the total value of the power requirements does not exceed the UPS output capacity in case only one power supply line is available. For details about the necessary UPS output capacity, refer to the specifications of the UPS that is used. A UPS must satisfy the following conditions:

● Rating capacity

Secure a sufficient rating capacity for the total value of the maximum power requirements for

the enclosures that are to be installed.

For the maximum power requirements of each enclosure, refer to "2.1 Installation

Specifications" (page 26).

● Supply time

Consider the power supply time of the battery to make sure that the ETERNUS DX Disk

storage system power is not turned off before the server shuts down.

● Socket type

If the power plug type and the socket type of the UPS do not match, it is necessary to equip

the UPS (AC output) with an appropriate type of socket. Request a qualified electrician to

perform the necessary work to make terminal block connections available.

● Power supply configuration

If a UPS is used, make sure that it supplies power to all the enclosures.

Configurations where the controller enclosure is powered by the UPS while the drive

enclosure is powered directly from AC are not supported.

3.4 Power Synchronized Connections

This section describes connections to automatically control powering the ETERNUS DX Disk storage system on and off with a server.

■ Power synchronized unit

A power synchronized unit enables the ETERNUS DX Disk storage system to be powered on and off with a server. The power synchronized unit detects changes in the AC power output of a UPS unit that is connected to a server (server UPS unit) and automatically turns on and off the ETERNUS DX Disk storage system. In addition to server UPS units, units that control the AC socket power output can also be connected. When three or more servers are connected, power can be synchronized by adding an AC sensor unit.

The power synchronized unit detects the AC power output of the target devices for power synchronization and commands the ETERNUS DX Disk storage system to synchronize the power with the target devices. When the power synchronized unit detects the AC power output of any server UPS unit, the power synchronized unit commands the ETERNUS DX Disk storage system to turn on. When the power synchronized unit does not detect AC power output in any of the server UPS units, the power synchronized unit commands the ETERNUS DX Disk storage system to turn off. The server UPS unit must have a function in the management software that controls the AC power output according to when the server powers on and off. The server UPS unit must have one unused outlet to connect to the power synchronized unit.

Chapter 4 Rack and Optional Product Installation

This chapter explains the requirements for installation of racks and the optional products for an ETERNUS DX Disk storage system.

4.1 Rack Installation Requirements

This section explains the requirements for installing the ETERNUS DX Disk storage system in a 19-inch rack.

Enclosures are installed in the following order (from bottom to top). The center of gravity must be taken into consideration to prevent a rack from toppling over. Enclosures should generally be installed from bottom to top to lower the center of gravity and to ensure the safe use of racks.

Table 4.1 Enclosure installation order

Order Enclosure Size (height)

1 Power distribution unit (PDU) 1U/2U

2 Controller enclosure (CE) 2U

3 Drive enclosure (DE) 2U

Install the controller enclosure and drive enclosure in the same rack.

• When determining the rack-mounting layout, consider the placement of

each enclosure and the power distribution unit in the rack and the length of each cable. For example, if the ETERNUS DX Disk storage system is installed at the top of a 1800mm rack, the surplus length of the power cord at the bottom of a rack should be about 2m.

• If the storage system is installed at the bottom of a rack, a space for the

surplus of cables may not be available in some racks, preventing the storage system from being pulled out when maintenance work is required. In this case, secure a space of 1U or more at the bottom when installing the storage system.
