Both 3.5" SAS disks
(*1)
(300GB/450GB/600GB; 15,000rpm), and 2.5" SAS disks
(*1)
(146GB/
300GB; 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.

- 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-con troller model) , power supply unit s, 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 . T herefore, unlike a ba ttery, 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 dat a and fraudu lent 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 ad d i tion, le ad -f re e so ld er ing is us ed for all pr int ed -w iring 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.

Table 1.3 User capacity for each RAID level
*1: Performance may differ according to the number of disks and the processing method from the host.
■ Recommended RAID level
Select the appropriate RAID level according to the usage.
• Recommended RAID level is RAID1, RAID1+0, RAID5, RAID5+0 and RAID6 .
• For read and write performance, RAID1+0 configuration is recommended.
• For read only file servers and backup servers, RAID5, RAID5+0, or RAID6 can also be used.
However, if the disk fails, note that data restoration from parities and rebuilding process may
result in a loss in performance.

1.2.2 RAID Groups and Volumes
■ RAID group
In an ETERNUS DX60/DX80/DX90 Disk storage system, you can set up the RAID groups to all
use the same RAID level or a mixture of different RAID levels.
Figure 1.7 Example of a RAID group
Table 1.4
show the recommended number of disks that configures a RAID group.
Table 1.4 Recommended number of disks per RAID group
■ Volume
Logical disk areas in RAID groups are called volumes.
A volume is the basic RAID unit, that can be recognized by the server.
Figure 1.8 RAID group concept
RAID level Recommended number of disks
RAID1 2
RAID1+0 4, 6, 8, 10
RAID5 3, 4, 5, 6
RAID5+0 6, 8, 10, 12
RAID6 5, 6, 7
• Adding more disks to a RAID group improves performance.
• Use of higher capacity disks in a RAID group will increase the time
required for the disk rebuild process to complete.
• The more disks per RAID5, RAID5+0, or RAID6 group, the longer the
period of time for data restoration from parities and rebuilding process.

1.2.4 Hot Spare
Hot spares are used as spare disks for when disks in a RAID group fail, or are in error status.
The following two types of hot spare are available:
• Global Hot spare
This is available for any RAID group.
• Dedicated Hot spare
This is only available to one specified RAID group.
For details about Global Hot spare and Dedicated Hot spare, refer to the "ETERNUS DX60/
DX80/DX90 Web GUI User Guide".
Make sure to register sufficient hot spares. If a free hot spare is available, when one of the RAID
group disks has a problem, data from this disk is automatically replicated into the hot spare.
Figure 1.9 Hot Spares
Assign "Dedicated Hot spares" to RAID groups that contain important data,
in order to preferentially improve their access to hot spares.
Refer
"ETERNUS DX60/DX80/DX90 Web GUI User Guide"
CAUTION
Do
• If a disk configured in a RAID1, RAID1+0, RAID5, RAID5+0, or
RAID6 group fails, contact your maintenance engineer immediately
as the failed disk should be replaced at once. If another disk fails
before the first disk that failed is replaced, the data of the second
disk may be lost.

1.2.5 Disks
Three kinds of drives can be installed in the device: SAS disks, Nearline SAS disks, and SSDs.
Each is suitable for the following usage cases:
• SAS Disk
SAS disks are highly-performance/high-reliability disks for enterprise use. SAS disks support
24/7/365 operations and are used to store high performance databases and other frequently
accessed data.
2.5" SAS disks take less space, consume less electrical power, and are lighter than 3.5" SAS
disks.
• Nearline SAS Disk
Nearline SAS disks are high capacity / cost effective disks for data backup and archive use.
Nearline SAS disks can store information that requires a lower access rate at a still
reasonable speed more cost effectively than the SAS disks.
• SSD (Solid-State Drive)
SSDs are highly-performance/high-reliability drives for enterprise use. SSDs support 24/7/
365 operations and are used to store high performance databases and other frequently
accessed data. SSDs use flash memory as their storage media and provide better random
access performance than SAS and Nearline SAS hard disks. Containing no motors or other
moving parts, SSDs are highly resistant to impact and have low power consumption requirements.
2.5" SSDs take less space and are lighter than 3.5" SSDs.
1.2.6 Host Interface
The ETERNUS DX60/DX80 supports three types of host interfaces: the Fibre Channel interface,
the iSCSI interface, and the SAS interface. The ETERNUS DX90 supports the Fibre Channel
interface.
• Fibre Channel interface
Fibre Channel supports two connection topologies, Arbitrated Loop and Fabric.
Maximum transfer speed is 4Gbit/s for the ETERNUS DX60, 8Gbit/s or 4Gbit/s for the
ETERNUS DX80, and 8Gbit/s for the ETERNUS DX90.
Fibre Channel is commonly used for database servers. A fabric connection via an FC switch
will allow a large number of high-performance hosts to connect to a single port if required.
• iSCSI interface
iSCSI is a communication protocol which transfers SCSI commands within IP packets over
Ethernet, and has a maximum transfer speed of 1Gbit/s.
Since iSCSI can be installed at lower cost than Fibre Channel, it is commonly used by divisions of large companies and by small-and-medium-sized companies.
In order to secure iSCSI performance, it is recommended that the iSCSI network be physically separated from other typical purpose networks such as those used for Internet access
and file transfer.
• SAS interface
SAS (Serial Attached SCSI) is a serial transfer host interface that is as reliable as the normal
(parallel) SCSI interface, but has a higher maximum transfer speed of 3Gbit/s.
SAS is used to connect servers and DAS (Direct Attached S torage) devices and, while providing less expandability than a SAN connection, is still suitable for small-sized systems.

1.3.3 Advanced Copy
The Advanced Copy functions allows the ETERNUS DX60/DX80/DX90 to carry out high-speed
data copying operations on its own, with no need to draw on server resources.
The Advanced Copy functions of the ETERNUS DX60/DX80/DX90 have the following uses:
• Data snapshots via GUI or CLI commands
• Fast data copies with ETERNUS SF Express
• Data backup in a live data environment using the Microsoft® Windows Server® Volume
Shadow Copy Service function (hereafter referred to as "VSS") with VSS-compatible backup
software
To use the Advanced Copy functions in a VSS environment, the "ETERNUS VSS Hardware
Provider" software must be downloaded and installed on the server . For details of "ETERNUS
VSS Hardware Provider" and how to install it, refer to the following web-site:
http://www.fujitsu.com/global/support/computing/storage/system/vsshp.html
• Quick data backup, restoration and replication with ETERNUS SF AdvancedCopy Manager

• QuickOPC
QuickOPC copies all data as initial copy as OPC. After the initial copy has completed, only
updated data (differential data) need to be copied hereafter.
QuickOPC is suitable for the following usages.
- Making backup for less updated data
- Making system test data replication
- Restoration from the backup
• SnapOPC+
As updates occur in the source data, SnapOPC+ saves the pre-change for each affected
generation level. Registering standby storage areas in the SDP allows SnapOPC+ copy
sessions to continue even when the amount of update data exceeds the copy destination
capacity.
SnapOPC+ is suitable for the following usages.
- Making temporary backup for tape backup
- Backup for less updated data (generation management is available)
• EC (Equivalent Copy)
EC makes a mirror copy of the copy source to the copy destination beforehand, then
suspends the copy and treats all data as independent data.
When copying is Resumed, only updated data in the copy source is copied to the copy
destination. If the copy destination data has been changed, copy the copy source data again.
EC is suitable for the following usages.
- Making backup
- Making system test data replication
• REC (Remote Equivalent Copy)
REC is used to copy data among multiple devices using the EC copy method.
REC is suitable for the following usages.
- Replicating system test datasets
- Duplicating databases on multiple devices
- Backing up data to remote devices

1.3.4 RAID Migration
RAID migration is a function that transfers a volume to a different RAID group with the data
integrity being guaranteed. By using RAID migration, RAID levels and vo lumes can be hot
switched. This allows easy redistribution of volumes among RAID groups in response to
customer needs. RAID migration can be carried out while the system is running, and may also be
used to switch data to a different RAID level changing from RAID5 to RAID1+0, for example.
The example of RAID migration is as follows:
• Example when transferring volumes from a RAID5(3+1) 300GB disk configuration to a
RAID5(3+1) 450GB disk configuration:

1.3.5 Logical Device Expansion
Logical Device Expansion (RAID Group Expansion) allows the capacity of an existing RAID
group to be dynamically extended by the addition of extra disks. By using Logical Device
Expansion to extend the capacity of existing RAID group in this way, new volume can be added
without having to add new RAID groups, as used to be the case.
The following shows the example when RAID5(3+1) 300GB configuration converted to a
RAID5(4+1) configuration by the addition of an extra disk.

1.3.6 LUN Concatenation
LUN concatenation is a function that is used to add new area to a volume and so expand the
volume capacity available to the server. This function enables the reuse of leftover free area in a
RAID group and can be used to solve capacity shortages.
The following example shows the concatenation of an unused area of a differ ent RAID g roup into
LUN2, in order to expand LUN2's capacity to 900GB.

1.3.7 Security Functions
The ETERNUS DX60/DX80/DX90 possesses functions that allow numbers of volumes, that can
be recognized by a server, to be expanded or restricted by adjusting how the logical units (LUN)
seen by the host correspond to the volumes within the storage system.
"LUN mapping function" and "Host Affinity function" are ava ila ble as sec uri ty functions.
• LUN Mapping function
LUN mapping is used to set the relationship between the logical units (LUN) of the h ost and
the volumes of the device, on a per device port basis.
Figure 1.17 LUN Mapping function
By specifying different LUN mapping per port, it is possible to set the volumes that can be
accessed for each server.

• Host Affinity function
The Host Affinity function sets the "Affinity Group" to be applied for each server. "Affinity
Group" defines the relationship between the host logical units (LUN) and the device logical
volumes. Multiple settings are available.
The Host Affinity function uses the server's World Wide Name (WWN), iSCSI name, or SAS
address to distinguish it from other servers.

When multiple servers access the device using the same port, this assigns Affinity Group for
each server.

• After turning the power on, it takes about 3 minutes for the device to
become READY (i.e. the READY LED turns on). If an error is detected
during the initial power-on diagnostic phase, a longer time (up to ten
minutes) may be required before the READY LED turns on.
• Before turning the server on, check that the device, Fibre Channel
switch, and Fibre Channel hub are all READY. If the server is turned on
while any of these devices are not READY, the server may not be able to
recognize the device.
• When the AUTO POWER switch of the controller enc losure is turned to
"ON", supplying power to the ETERNUS DX60/DX80/DX90 will cause
the ETERNUS DX60/DX80/DX90 to turn on automatically in cases such
as when the power cord is connected or the power is recovered after
power failure.
• When turning on the ETERNUS DX60/DX80/DX90 for the first time,
volume formatting operation, which is set as factory default, may be
performed. However, the ETERNUS DX60/DX80/DX90 se tting op era tion
can be continued.
When canceling a volume format, delet e the volum e. For details on how
to delete volume, refer to "ETERNUS DX60/DX80/DX90 Web GUI User

MPORTAN
T
The speed of the ETERNUS DX60/DX80/DX90 fans is stepped up and
down in response to the ambient temperature.
When the ambient temperature reaches a high level, the fan will rotate at a
higher speed, which will increase the noise level. Up to 25°C the noise level
should not exceed about 43.5dB, but higher temperatures or abn ormal fan
situations can result in noise levels over 43.5dB, and seclusion in a
dedicated server room is generally recommended.
