21 Flexible Disk Overview Disk Pools AdvancedDisk & SharedDisk use disk configured within NetBackup as disk pools Disk pools present storage for use when configuring AdvancedDisk & SharedDisk storage unit types Disk pools are also used for PureDisk and OpenStorage storage unit types Configured using the disk pool configuration wizard Viewable from the NetBackup GUI 21 21

22 Flexible Disk Overview AdvancedDisk Performance enhanced basic disk Enables Storage Lifesysle Policies Enables media server load-balancing Enables intelligent disk capacity management SharedDisk SAN Attached disk arrays for sharing storage between homogeneous media servers Also enables Enterprise Disk Foundation features 22 22

23 AdvancedDisk A storage unit type Storage unit type = disk Disk type = AdvancedDisk Requires a selected disk pool 23 23

24 AdvancedDisk Disk details Uses a collection of dedicated disk Direct attached, SAN attached, or Network attached Disk is exposed as a file system Easy to adopt with existing investments in basic disk Freedom to choose disk hardware Usage details NetBackup assumes that it owns the entire capacity of the exposed file system Reduces administrative effort required for tasks such as capacity management, load balancing, and duplication of backup images 24 24

25 AdvancedDisk Complete platform coverage Solaris Windows Linux HP-UX AIX Capabilities Works with the SAN Client Enables Enterprise Disk Foundation features Backups can span storage units 25 25

26 SharedDisk A storage unit type Storage unit type = disk Disk type = SharedDisk Requires a selected disk pool Media server selection: Use any available media server Use specific media servers 26 26

27 SharedDisk Disk details Uses array based collection of dedicated disk Supported arrays are detailed on the NetBackup HCL Includes EMC CX, DMX Includes Hitachi GF Includes HP EVA Includes IBM DS6000, System Storage N series Includes NetApp FAS series Usage details Homogeneous media servers can share disk Scalability: Media servers are easily added to or removed from a SharedDisk storage unit Scalability: Luns are easily added to disk pools 27 27

28 SharedDisk Master Clients Introducing the Disk Pool concept LUNs are collectively managed as volumes within a disk group. Homogeneous Media Servers LAN Any to Any Access Any volume is dynamically accessible from any Media Server. During backup, the media server dynamically attaches a volume, mounts the file-system and writes the backup. S A N LUNs LUNs Load Balanced Additional backup jobs are distributed by the Master server across the pools of servers and volumes. Disk Pool Bypass Offline Media Servers Images can be accessed even if the server that wrote the images fails or is decommissioned. 28 Flexible Reprovisioning Add storage or servers independently 28
