3 The File Storage challenge We've been preaching against the SAN vs. NAS war for a long time. Users need block access and file access - what they really want is a single storage platform that does both.

8 Control Enclosure Rear View /324 External Enclosure Ports # Ports 8 Gb Fiber Channel SAN 8 1 Gb Ethernet 4 10 Gb Ethernet (Models 312/324) USB 4 4 Internal Enclosure Ports # Ports SAS Each SAS 2.0 ports has four send/receive wire pairs Each wire pair is 6 Gb/s or 24 Gb/s total per SAS port

9 Expansion Enclosure Rear View IBM Storwize V7000 Expansion Enclosure ( , -224) is packaged in a 2U rackmountable enclosure that houses twenty-four 2.5-inch drive bays (model 224) or twelve 3.5-inch drive bays (model 212)

10 Clustered Systems Scale UP and/or OUT as business requirements grow SCALE UP to add capacity SCALE OUT to add performance Clustered systems provide smarter scalability Buy only as much capability as you need, when you need it Increase performance, connectivity and cache Clustered system operates and is managed as a single system Control enclosure 1 Control enclosure 2

11 Clustered Systems Start with a single control enclosure (a pair of controllers) And add up to 9 expansion enclosures Mix 2.5 & 3.5 drive enclosures Mix drive type and drive size in an enclosure Add control enclosures independently of expansion enclosures Build a cluster (a Grid) of controller pairs Add expansion enclosures as required for capacity and performance

15 What this is Unified block and file storage system with a tightly integrated management console Support for NFS/CIFS/FTP/HTTPS/SCP file protocols in addition to existing block functions IBM Active Cloud Engine technology File replication and file level snapshots for business continuity and disaster recovery Why It Matters 6U Provides greater flexibility for provisioning of storage resources and improves overall capacity utilization Unified console simplifies storage administration with a single user interface and common CLI Enables deployment of a broad set of applications from within a single storage system, especially in shared storage environments V7000 Unified V7000 Unified

16 File Servers detail Additional hardware and software on top of the Storwize V7000 File Modules (FMs) provide file services CIFS, FTP, HTTP(S), NFS, and SCP Software stack originates from the Scale Out NAS (SONAS) and GPFS products x3650m3 Form factor: 2U Processor: Single Six Core Intel Xeon X GHz, 8MB L2 cache, 80W Memory: 72GB DDR3 RAM Storage: 2 * 500GB 10K SAS Single RAID 1 pair Network Interfaces: 4 GbE Ports 2 for Customer Network 2 for Management Network Dual port 10GbE NIC Customer Network Emulex OneConnect Dual-port 8Gbps Fibre Channel HBA QLogic QLE

17 Internal connectivity Storwize V7000 Unified File Servers take block storage from Storwize V7000 and present it to the network as filesystem, primarily as NFS and CIFS shares File Server File Server Management interface for File Servers and Storwize V7000 is via green 1Gb Eth Storwize V7000

18 File functions Support for NFS/CIFS/FTP/HTTPS/SCP file protocols in addition to existing block functions (FCP and iscsi) NFS v2 & v3 server (not v4) CIFS server (Samba 3.3) SMB1 and SMB2 (not 2.1) FTP, SCP & https servers NDMP v2, v3 & v4 backup/restore server (IP only, no local tape) File replication and file level snapshots for business continuity and disaster recovery in addition to existing block functions

19 IBM Active Cloud Engine : Policies and Rules Means to automate the management of files using policies and rules Policy is a set of rules that describes the life cycle of user data based on the file s attributes Support for: File placement policies used to automatically place newly created files in a specific File System pool. File management policies used to manage files during their lifecycle move files to another internal or external File System pool copying files to archival storage changing their replication status deletion Policy rules define an operation or definition such as migrate and replicate a file three uses for rules: Initial file placement File management Restoring file data
