17 IBM Tioli Assist On-site (AOS) IBM Tioli Assist On-site (AOS) is a web-based tool that enables a remote support representatie in IBM to iew or control the management node desktop. More information is located at the Tioli AOS website. Replication terminology OpenStorage OpenStorage allows ProtecTIER to be integrated with NetBackup to proide the means for backup-to-disk without using a irtual tape library (VTL) emulation. Using a plug-in that is installed on an OpenStorage-enabled media serer, ProtecTIER can implement a communication protocol that supports data transfer and control between the backup serer and the ProtecTIER serer. Therefore, to support the plug-in, ProtecTIER implements a storage serer emulation. replication A process that transfers logical objects like cartridges from one ProtecTIER repository to another. The replication function allows ProtecTIER deployment to be distributed across sites. Each site has a single or clustered ProtecTIER enironment. Each ProtecTIER enironment has at least one ProtecTIER serer. The ProtecTIER serer that is a part of the replication grid has two dedicated replication ports that are used for replication. Replication ports are connected to the customer's WAN and are configured on two subnets as default. replication grid A set of repositories that share a common ID and can potentially transmit and receie logical objects through replication. A replication grid defines a set of ProtecTIER repositories and actions between them and is configured using the ProtecTIER Replication Manager. The ProtecTIER Replication Manager is a software component that is installed on a ProtecTIER serer or a dedicated host. The ProtecTIER Replication Manager should be able to recognize all the members of the entire network the ProtecTIER Replication Manager handles on both replication subnets. The ProtecTIER Replication Manager manages the configuration of multiple replication grids in an organization. An agent on eery node in each ProtecTIER serer interacts with the serer and maintains a table of its grid members. Note: Customers must license the Replication features on all ProtecTIER systems participating in the replication grid whether the system is sending or receiing data (or both). replication grid ID A number from 0 to 63 that identifies a replication grid within an organization. replication grid member A repository that is a member in a replication grid. replication pairs Two repositories within a replication grid that replicate from one to another. replication policy A policy made up of rules that define a set of objects (for example, VTL cartridges) from a source repository to be replicated to a target repository. About this document xii

18 repository unique ID (RID) A number that uniquely identifies the repository. The RID is created from the replication grid ID and the repository internal ID in the grid. replication timeframe A scheduled period of time for replication to take place for all policies. shelf A container of VTL cartridges within a ProtecTIER repository. irtual tape library (VTL) The ProtecTIER irtual tape library (VTL) serice emulates traditional tape libraries. By emulating tape libraries, ProtecTIER VTL enables you to transition to disk backup without haing to replace your entire backup enironment. Your existing backup application can access irtual robots to moe irtual cartridges between irtual slots and dries. The backup application perceies that the data is being stored on cartridges while ProtecTIER actually stores data on a deduplicated disk repository. isibility switching The automated process that transfers the isibility of a VTL cartridge from its master to its replica and ice ersa. The isibility switching process is triggered by moing a cartridge to the source library Import/Export (I/E) slot. The cartridge will then disappear from the I/E slot and appear at the destination library's I/E slot. To moe the cartridge back to the source library, the cartridge must be ejected to the shelf from the destination library. The cartridge will then disappear from the destination library and reappear at the source I/E slot.

System throughput is scalable; it can be set at a leel suitable for your organization s needs. Restriction: Changing system throughput is not a dynamic operation. Raising or lowering throughput requires the system to be offline and forces the recreation of repositories. The replication function allows ProtecTIER deployment to be distributed across sites. To facilitate backup applications that are designed for use with tape storage, the TS7650G and the TS7650 Appliance emulate traditional tape library units. The TS7650G and the TS7650 Appliance are aailable either in a stand-alone configuration or in a clustered configuration; the cluster facilitates increased throughput and higher aailability. When configured as a Virtual Tape Library (VTL) system, both solutions use IBM technology and software to emulate DTC VTF 0100, ATL P and TS3500 tape libraries. This emulation capability is designed to help customers achiee the following operational and throughput efficiencies: Backup window reduction Restoration time reduction Data sharing and resource irtualization optimization Operational efficiency Improed sharing of irtual tape libraries across applications and serers When configured as an OpenStorage system, the TS7650G and the TS7650 Appliance present ProtecTIER as a NetBackup application programming interface (API) supporting communications between NetBackup systems and OpenStorage-enabled ProtecTIER systems. The OpenStorage interface proides the following capabilities: NetBackup software directs ProtecTIER systems when to create, copy, delete or restore backup images. Backup images may be replicated to up to 12 different ProtecTIER systems. Workloads and performance are balanced between NetBackup media serers and ProtecTIER systems. Detailed statistics on the state of the ProtecTIER systems are aailable through API. When configured as a File System Interface (FSI) system, the TS7650G and the TS7650 Appliance present ProtecTIER as a network attached storage (NAS) backup target, capable of using the HyperFactor algorithm. FSI enables backup serers Copyright IBM Corp. 2011,

26 running backup applications to access ProtecTIER oer an Ethernet-based IP network, eliminating the need for Fibre Channel connectiity. Implementation of FSI supports: A 16-way many-to-many replication topology group Single-node (non-clustered) ProtecTIER configurations Creation of backup images produced by backup applications (not intended for primary storage deduplication) File system access security through the use of a Microsoft workgroup domain (default) or Actie Directory domain Attention: Before upgrading the ProtecTIER code leel in the TS7650 Appliance, it is required that the storage subsystem firmware, NVSRAM firmware, and the ESM firmware on your expansion drawers be updated first. You must call IBM Serice to schedule a time to update the firmware. For the TS7650G, the disk storage array is supplied by the customer. It attaches to the TS7650G through Fibre Channel connections and holds the repository of factored backup data. The amount of cache aailable depends on your disk subsystem and configuration. The TS7650G supports the following disk subsystems: IBM System Storage DS8300 IBM System Storage DS8100 IBM System Storage DS5300 IBM System Storage DS5100 IBM System Storage DS4800 IBM System Storage DS4700 IBM System Storage DS4300 IBM System Storage DS4200 IBM System Storage DS3400 IBM System Storage V7000 IBM XIV (Machine type 2810) IBM SAN Volume Controller and later XIV Nextra HDS AMS1000 HDS AMS2300 HP EVA 8100 HP EVA 8400 EMC CX series The TS7650 Appliance uses the self-contained IBM System Storage DS4700 disk storage unit for data compression and storage. Important: As of 3 April 2012, systems for which IBM has the responsibility for installation must be made aailable to IBM for installation within six months of shipment or else a fee will be charged. 2 IBM System Storage TS7650 and TS7650G ProtecTIER Deduplication Solutions: Introduction and Planning Guide

27 TS7650G hardware components For TS7650 Appliance hardware components, see TS7650 Appliance hardware components on page 10. The TS7650G is aailable in stand-alone and clustered configurations. For a stand-alone configuration, one IBM machine type and model 3958 DD5 serer is required. For a clustered configuration, two 3958 DD5 serers are required, along with an FC 3437 Cluster Connection Kit, which consists of: two 1 Gb (gigabit) Ethernet switches, SMC model 8126L2 one network power switch, Western Telematic, Inc. (WTI) model VMR-8HD20-2 power cables Ethernet cables mounting hardware Notes: The following cluster serer combinations are supported: two 3958 DD5 serers one 3958 DD5 serer and one 3958 DD4 serer one 3958 DD5 serer and one 3958 DD3 serer one 3958 DD5 serer and one 3958 DD1 serer (by RPQ only) In all cases, the clustered serers must be installed in the same frame. IBM does not support more than one clustered pair of TS7650G serers in a single frame. Red Hat Linux ersion 5.6 is required to run on the gateway serer. For more information, see TS7650G feature codes on page 51. An IBM Total Storage System Console (TSSC) and the accompanying Keyboard/Video/Monitor (KVM kit) (purchased separately) are also required for installation, serice, and maintenance of the TS7650G. IBM recommends that the TSSC be installed in the same rack as the gateway serer. Howeer, an existing TSSC may be used, proided it is within 100 feet of the gateway serer. For the TS7650G to be fully functional, additional hardware components (purchased separately) are required. These components include frame(s), disk controller(s), and disk expansion modules. The lists below outline the additional hardware purchases recommended for each deployment option of the TS7650G: Stand-alone Gateway One customer-supplied serer frame One customer-supplied disk storage frame Clustered Gateway One customer-supplied serer frame One or more customer-supplied disk storage frames Replication Gateway Two customer-supplied serer frames Chapter 1. Introduction 3

28 One or more customer-supplied disk storage frames per serer frame Each customer-supplied frame must contain two 220V power distribution units, and proide sufficient rack space in order to accommodate: In a stand-alone configuration, the serer frame must proide either 4u or 6u of rack space. 4u of rack space for one gateway serer. 2u of rack space for one TSSC, or no additional rack space if an existing TSSC is used. In a clustered configuration, the serer frame must proide 11u or 13u of rack space. 8u of rack space for two gateway serers. 2u of rack space for one TSSC, or no additional rack space if an existing TSSC is used. 2u of rack space for two Ethernet switches. 1u of rack space for one network power switch. In a replication configuration, the serer frames required depend on the planned hardware configuration of the source and destination serer(s). If stand-alone to stand-alone, duplicate the stand-alone configuration listed aboe for the second frame. If the source and destination frames are clustered, duplicate the clustered configuration listed aboe for the second site. Possible existing gateway upgrade scenarios: Existing TS7650G installation with DD3 serers, adding new DD5 serers for replication. Existing TS7650G installation with DD4 serers, adding new DD5 serers for replication. Existing TS7650G installation with DD3, DD4, or DD5 serers, adding replication functionality, no new hardware required for DD5, DD4 or DD3. For DD1, a second Ethernet adapter is needed (Feature Code 3448). Existing DD3 clustered with a new DD5 VTL system. Existing DD4 clustered with a new DD5 VTL system. DD5 VTL system clustered with another DD5 VTL system. DD5 OpenStorage system clustered with another 3958 DD5 OpenStorage system. Possible new gateway installation scenarios: New TS7650G installation, clustered or stand-alone, with replication (VTL or OpenStorage). New TS7650G installation, clustered or stand-alone, without replication (VTL or OpenStorage). New TS7650G installation, stand-alone only, with or without replication (FSI).

TS7650G serer frame components For the disk storage frame(s), the amount of rack space and the number of frames required aries depending on the type of disk storage that is being used. For example, one IBM System Storage DS4700 disk controller and six IBM System Storage DS4000 EXP810 disk expansion modules require 21u of rack space in the frame. In a clustered configuration with two controllers and 12 expansion modules, an additional disk storage frame may be required. Gateway serer (3958 DD5) The gateway serer proides the connections to the TSSC and the customer SAN network (for connection to the client hosts and irtual tape libraries).

TS7650 Appliance hardware components The TS7650 Appliance consists of four hardware machine types and the ProtecTIER software. For TS7650G hardware components, see TS7650G hardware components on page 3. The 3952 F05 Frame is used to house the components of the TS7650 Appliance. The TS7650 Appliance is aailable in the following stand-alone and clustered configurations. Replication is aailable in both stand-alone and clustered configurations. Replication requires that the source and destination systems be separate and identical in size and configuration, that is, stand-alone to stand-alone or clustered to clustered. Note: You must hae a license for the replication feature for each ProtecTIER serer in the replication grid. 10 IBM System Storage TS7650 and TS7650G ProtecTIER Deduplication Solutions: Introduction and Planning Guide

35 Each system can function as a hub or as a spoke. Replication does not require that the source and destination systems be identical in size and configuration. Important: Both the source and the destination must be completely installed and configured before replication can be enabled. Resources should be planned so that the destination machine is able to receie replications from all source machines. The space allocated for replication in the destination machine should be larger than the sum of all the data in the sources that need to be replicated. When planning for the performance of the destination, the amount of data that needs to be replicated and the time allocated for replication should be considered. There are two types of replication grid: Many-to-one In a many-to-one enironment, replication groups are created where multiple source repositories (spokes) can receie local backups and replicate to a single destination (hub). The destination repository can then act as a Disaster Recoery site for any number of the source repositories while still allowing local backups and replication from the actie source repositories. Many-to-one replication defines the following two roles in a replication grid: Spoke - A backup target that can only replicate to a single hub, may not be a target for replication. Hub - A replication and backup target, may receie replication from up to 12 spokes, may not replicate (besides failback). A group of one hub and one or more spokes is referred to as a topology group. A single grid may include up to eight hubs and therefore up to eight topology groups. Spokes do not need physical connections between them. All repositories need a network connection to the replication manager serer (a PT or dedicated host ia RPQ approal). Currently, the only many-to-one topology group supported is a VTL 12-way configuration, which consists of one to twele spokes associated with one hub. Note: When upgrading from one-to-one replication to many-to-one replication, the Replication Manager serer automatically upgrades the grid's database; therefore all replication pairs will be set as hub and spoke accordingly. The GUI behaes as its multiple many-to-one pairs. Many-to-many In a many-to-many enironment, replication groups are created where multiple repositories can replicate to each other. A many-to-many replication group can be defined with multiple repositories, where each repository assumes the responsibility of a hub repository and can receie local backups, replicate data to remote hub repositories, as well as receie replicated data from remote hub repositories. The following many-to-many topology groups are supported: VTL 4-way In a VTL configuration, up to four repositories act as both hub and spoke. Chapter 1. Introduction 11

36 OpenStorage 12-way In an OpenStorage configuration, up to twele repositories act as both hub and spoke. FSI 16-way In an FSI configuration, up to sixteen repositories act as both hub and spoke. For all many-to-one and many-to-many configurations, the same cartridge can be replicated from its principal repository to up to three destination repositories. Different cartridges can be replicated between multiple hub repositories in a bidirectional manner. For a stand-alone configuration, one IBM machine type and model 3958 AP1 serer is required. For a clustered configuration, two 3958 AP1 serers are required, along with an FC 3437 Cluster Connection Kit, which consists of: two 1 Gb (gigabit) Ethernet switches, SMC model 8126L2 one network power switch, Western Telematic, Inc. (WTI) model VMR-8HD20-2 power cables Ethernet cables mounting hardware Red Hat Linux ersion 5.6 is required to run on the appliance serer. For more information, see TS7650 Appliance feature codes on page 61. FC 2722 proides an IBM Total Storage System Console (TSSC) and the accompanying Keyboard/Video/Monitor (KVM) switch. These items are required for installation, serice, and maintenance of the TS7650 Appliance. IBM recommends that the TSSC be installed in the same rack as the appliance serer. Howeer, an existing TSSC may be used, proided it is within 100 feet of the appliance serer.

Disk controller ( H) FC 3706 or ( H) 3708 The disk controller supports sixteen 450 GB (15k rpm), 4 Gbps, fibre channel disk drie modules (DDMs). It comes with two RAID controllers, two power supplies, and two cooling units. The disk controller proides dual redundant controllers, redundant cooling, redundant power, and battery backup of the RAID controller cache. The disk controller is designed to proide maximum host and drie-side redundancy, enabling full redundant drie loop support to additional disk storage capacity in the expansion frames ia the drie loop port from each RAID controller. In addition, each RAID controller supports direct attachment of two serers that contain two fibre channel host bus adapters each. External cables and small form-factor pluggable (SFP) modules connect the disk controller to the expansion units and the serers. For optimum performance, RAID 5 configuration is recommended. Currently, the only expansion unit that can be attached to the H disk controller is the H disk expansion module. For more support information about the disk controller, go to serers/storage/support/disk/ and select Disk Systems > DS4700 Express. Disk expansion module ( H) FC 3707 The disk expansion module supports sixteen 450 GB (15k rpm), 4 Gbps, fibre channel disk drie modules (DDMs). For optimum performance, RAID 5 configuration is recommended. The disk expansion module supports redundant, dual-loop configurations with the disk controller and other disk expansion modules. External cables and SFP modules connect the controller to the disk expansion module. The disk expansion module proides continuous, reliable serice and uses hot-swap technology. Software ProtecTIER is a disk-based data storage system. It uses data deduplication technology to store data to disk arrays. With Feature Code 9022, the ProtecTIER Virtual Tape Library (VTL) serice emulates traditional automated tape libraries. With Feature Code 9023, the TS7650G and the TS7650 Appliance can be configured as OpenStorage and integrated with Symantec NetBackup. With Feature Code 9024, a stand-alone TS7650G or TS7650 Appliance can be configured as FSI. Note: A single repository only supports either Feature Code 9022 (VTL emulation), 9023 (OpenStorage) or 9024 (FSI); the three options cannot be combined in a single repository in any way. 26 IBM System Storage TS7650 and TS7650G ProtecTIER Deduplication Solutions: Introduction and Planning Guide

51 ProtecTIER Manager The ProtecTIER Manager workstation is a customer-supplied workstation that runs the ProtecTIER Manager software. The ProtecTIER Manager software proides the management GUI interface to the TS7650G and the TS7650 Appliance. System requirements for the workstation are proided in this document in ProtecTIER Manager workstation requirements on page 76. Complete information about installing and using the ProtecTIER Manager workstation is proided in the IBM System Storage ProtecTIER User's Guide for Enterprise Edition and Appliance Edition, GA Note: ProtecTIER Manager will not be optimal on all resolutions is the minimum supported; is recommended. ProtecTIER VTL The ProtecTIER VTL serice emulates traditional tape libraries. By emulating tape libraries, ProtecTIER VTL enables you to transition to disk backup without haing to replace your entire backup enironment. Your existing backup application can access irtual robots to moe irtual cartridges between irtual slots and dries. The backup application perceies that the data is being stored on cartridges while ProtecTIER actually stores data on a deduplicated disk repository on the appliance storage. ProtecTIER supports an absolute maximum of 62,000 irtual cartridges, slots, and tape dries, although the maximum number might be lower for indiidual systems because of aailable storage space.

Tape library emulation OpenStorage With OpenStorage, ProtecTIER can be integrated with NetBackup to proide the means for backup-to-disk without haing to emulate tape. Using a plug-in that is installed on an OpenStorage-enabled media serer, ProtecTIER can implement a communication protocol that supports data transfer and control between the backup serer and the ProtecTIER serer. Therefore, to support the plug-in, ProtecTIER implements a storage serer emulation. Chapter 1. Introduction 27

For the 3958 DD5 serer For the 3958 AP1 serer streams host connections ProtecTIER exposes irtual interfaces to the host, such as a media serer with the plug-in installed. In ersion 3.2, the physical Ethernet ports are assigned to one irtual application interface. Currently, the physical ports are assigned to irtual interface ost1 or fsi1, depending on the serer configuration. This assignment option is used to group seeral physical interfaces into a single irtual interface, and create a bond configuration of seeral physical interfaces. Each irtual interface used must be configured with a corresponding IP address. 28 IBM System Storage TS7650 and TS7650G ProtecTIER Deduplication Solutions: Introduction and Planning Guide

53 Attention: Each configured IP address on the same serer needs to be on a different subnet, and each subnet needs to be on a different VLAN. If separate subnets and VLAN s are not used, in certain enironments and networks, network packets can moe to other subnets, which can harm network performance and potentially reduce the network's quality of serice. In addition, each irtual interface containing more than one physical interface (configured as a bond) needs to be configured with a load balancing method. For a serer with 10 Gb interfaces, where bonding is implemented, the recommended load balancing method is LACP with L3L4. For more information about bonding, the different load balancing methods, and whether to configure bonds at all, refer to the Best Practices Guide for IBM System Storage TS7600 ProtecTIER Deduplication Solutions, GA or the IBM ProtecTIER Implementation and Best Practices, IBM Redbooks publication SG TSSC microcode If you are using an existing TSSC, before installing or upgrading ProtecTIER, the TSSC microcode must be 5.12.x or later.

55 The customer must use an additional connectiity deice between the optical fiber directly connected to optical adapters (for example, Fibre Channel, ESCON, or FICON) and an external public network. It can be a patch panel, router, switch, or other suitable deice. Optical fiber connectiity that does not go oer a public network does not require an additional connectiity deice. Supported LUNs This section lists the LUN limits for a TS7650G setup. Note: The following specifications apply to the TS7650G only. The maximum LUN size supported for the TS7650G is 8 TB. This includes both metadata and user data LUN classifications. The minimum LUN size supported for the TS7650G is 1 GB, the minimum for the quorum LUN.

Chapter 1. Introduction 31

56 RAID Redundant array of independent disks (RAID) is a method of configuring multiple disk dries in a storage subsystem for high aailability and high performance. The collection of two or more disk dries presents the image of a single disk drie to the system. In the eent of a single deice failure, data can be read or regenerated from the other disk dries in the array. The TS7650G and the TS7650 Appliance support the following RAID configurations: RAID 1 for the appliance serer's internal hard disk dries RAID 5 for user data on attached disk storage RAID 6 for user data on attached SATA disk storage (TS7650G only) RAID 10 for meta data on attached disk storage Configure other items such as block size, channel protection, and so on, in accordance with your disk storage manufacturer's instructions and with the Best Practices Guide for IBM System Storage TS7600 ProtecTIER Deduplication Solutions, GA Fencing This section proides a description of fencing. The fencing option for serers in the TS7650G and the TS7650 Appliance proides higher aailability for operations by eliminating the down time that can occur should a hardware or software failure occur in a serer. Two-node actie-actie support permits the sharing of all disk storage between two serers in a clustered configuration. In the fencing design for the TS7650G and the TS7650 Appliance, two serers are installed in the same frame and configured to monitor each other. In the eent that one serer fails to fulfill its responsibilities to the SAN clients it is sering, the other serer will reset the serer and allow for an orderly reconstruction of the serer s resources. Fencing requirements Fencing is aailable only in a clustered TS7650G or TS7650 Appliance configuration. Follow these requirements when setting up a fencing configuration, depending upon the solution: For the TS7650G You must hae one of the following combinations of gateway serers in a single frame: two 3958 DD5s two 3958 DD4s one 3958 DD5 and one 3958 DD3 two 3958 DD3s one 3958 DD3 and one 3958 DD1 two 3958 DD1 Notes: 32 IBM System Storage TS7650 and TS7650G ProtecTIER Deduplication Solutions: Introduction and Planning Guide

57 The 3958 DD1 and 3958 DD4 gateway serers cannot be clustered. The 3958 DD1 and 3958 DD5 gateway serers can be clustered by RPQ only. Fencing with two gateway serers in different frames is not possible, because both gateway serers must be connected to the same network power switch. For the TS7650 Appliance You must hae two 3958 AP1 appliance serers in a single frame. One appliance serer is located at the bottom of the frame (node A, the lower serer in the rack) and the other appliance serer is located at the top of the frame (node B, the upper serer in the rack). Note: Fencing with two appliance serers in different frames is not possible, because both serers must be connected to the same power supply. Two-node actie-actie support This section applies only to the TS7650G. The use of two-node actie-actie support in the storage subsystem permits the sharing of all disk storage between two gateway serers in a clustered configuration, although the DS3000, DS4000, and DS5000 families are only capable of actie-passie support. LUN masking This section describes the LUN masking function. LUN masking is used to control deice isibility by allowing specific deices (for example, tape dries or robots) to be seen only by a selected group of host initiators. A host initiator is the WWN, or the physical address of a port of a fiber card of the host (that is, the serer that the backup application is installed on). LUN masking allows you to assign specific deices to a specific host running backup application modules. It enables multiple initiators to share the same target FC port without haing conflicts on the deices being emulated. The LUN masking setup can be monitored and modified at all times during system operation. LUN masking in ProtecTIER influences the isibility of the deices by the hosts systems. Keep in mind that eery modification to LUN masking in ProtecTIER may affect the host configuration and may require rescanning by the hosts. Replication This section describes the replication function. Note: You must hae a license for the replication feature for each ProtecTIER serer in the replication grid. The replication function proides complete system backup and allows ProtecTIER deployment to be distributed across sites. Each site has a single or clustered ProtecTIER enironment. Each ProtecTIER enironment has at least one ProtecTIER serer. The ProtecTIER serer that is a part of the replication grid has two dedicated ports that are used for replication. Replication ports are connected to the customer's WAN and are configured on two subnets by default. Chapter 1. Introduction 33

58 Note: Do not configure the replication ports on the same subnet as the external LAN port, eth0 or on the same subnets as each other. Doing so may cause replication errors. Use the pt_net_perf_util utility to test maximal replication performance between two future ProtecTIER repositories by emulating the network usage patterns of ProtecTIER's Natie Replication component. This utility will not predict replication performance, but it may discoer performance bottlenecks. Many-to-one replication ProtecTIER many-to-one replication supports both single node and clustered ProtecTIER configurations. Many-to-one replication proides the following functionality and support: Setting replication performance limits - This feature allows the user to set system-wide physical and/or nominal limits in order to indicate to the replication engine the maximal replication transfer rate allowed in the network for a specific repository. The performance limits refer to oerall resource consumption of the system, and is reflected on the network transfer rate. Performance limits are based on the Replication Rate Control (RRC). Current RRC is used when a user does not proide a time frame and the system replicates continuously. The rate calculation uses performance limits to understand the maximum rate possible in both leels of system usage (IDLE, BUSY), and then it normalizes the rate accordingly. Resering space for hub repository - This feature proides the ability to exclusiely assign a fragment of a hub repository's capacity for local backups. In large deployments with many spokes replicating, capacity management done by the user might cause a situation where replication is trying to occupy all the space in hub repository. Since the assumption is that backup has precedence oer replication, this feature has been added to ensure that capacity is resered only for local backup, so that replication cannot be written to this storage fragment. Error notifications appear in the eent the capacity resered for the local backup or the capacity resered for replication on the repository hub is running out of space. Enhanced monitoring of repository space consumption - This enhancement is displayed in the GUI as a nominal data pie, where a user can get at-a-glance the proportion of the nominal data out of the repository and the internal capacity distribution of replication data s. local backup data and free space. Additional Replication information in Repository's cartridge iew - This feature reports cartridge replication properties such as: last update time, destination, etc. to a replication iew that displays replication properties for cartridges which are also displayed in the regular cartridge iew. This feature allows the user to see replication properties for a batch of cartridges each in a single row. Sorting capability for the replication fields is equialent to the sorting capabilities for the rest of the cartridge fields. Disaster Recoery site replaces production site operation - This feature supports a scenario where a disaster recoery site (the hub) is chosen to replace one of its spokes permanently. The feature allows the user to take oer the responsibility for the cartridges of the old spoke after running the replace repository wizard from the Replication Manager. Enhanced Timeframe support - This feature enhances the repository timeframe attribute to be a weekly scheduler on a repository leel. The timeframe is a set of 30 minute time interals across a full week. The user chooses at which time 34 IBM System Storage TS7650 and TS7650G ProtecTIER Deduplication Solutions: Introduction and Planning Guide

59 interal the replication should run during a single week. The timeframe also uses the performance limits feature for limiting the replication rate when in timeframe. Command Line Interface for Disaster Recoery - This feature is a Command Line Interface (CLI) that allows a user to run complex queries on cartridges and proides cartridge batch moe operation during a manual DR procedure. The feature allows the user to query ProtecTIER in order to obtain a list of cartridges that falls under specific criteria. The query criteria are cartridge replication properties and cartridge location properties. Replication grid The replication grid is defined as an entity that supports replication between its members. The replication grid members are PT repositories and are configured using a Replication Manager (RM). The RM is a software component that may be installed on a dedicated host or on a PT machine. The RM should be able to detect all members of the arious networks that the RM handles on both replication subnets. A replication grid defines a set of PT repositories and actions between them. The RM is serer software that is separately deployed on the customer's WAN or on a PT machine. The RM on a stand-alone installation can manage the configuration of multiple replication grids in an organization. An agent on each PT system (specifically on eery node) interacts with the serer and maintains a table of its grid's members. There are two types of replication grid: Many-to-one In a many-to-one enironment, replication groups are created where multiple source repositories (spokes) can receie local backups and replicate to a single destination (hub). The destination repository can then act as a Disaster Recoery site for any number of the source repositories while still allowing local backups and replication from the actie source repositories. Many-to-one replication defines the following two roles in a replication grid: Spoke - A backup target that can only replicate to a single hub, may not be a target for replication. Hub - A replication and backup target, may receie replication from up to 12 spokes, may not replicate (besides failback). A group of one hub and one or more spokes is referred to as a topology group. A single grid may include up to eight hubs and therefore up to eight topology groups. Spokes do not need physical connections between them. All repositories need a network connection to the replication manager serer (a PT or dedicated host ia RPQ approal). Currently, the only many-to-one topology group supported is a VTL 12-way configuration, which consists of one to twele spokes associated with one hub. Note: When upgrading from one-to-one replication to many-to-one replication, the Replication Manager serer automatically upgrades the grid's database; therefore all replication pairs will be set as hub and spoke accordingly. The GUI behaes as its multiple many-to-one pairs. Many-to-many Chapter 1. Introduction 35

60 In a many-to-many enironment, replication groups are created where multiple repositories can replicate to each other. A many-to-many replication group can be defined with multiple repositories, where each repository assumes the responsibility of a hub repository and can receie local backups, replicate data to remote hub repositories, as well as receie replicated data from remote hub repositories. The following many-to-many topology groups are supported: VTL 4-way In a VTL configuration, up to four repositories act as both hub and spoke. OpenStorage 12-way In an OpenStorage configuration, up to twele repositories act as both hub and spoke. FSI 16-way In an FSI configuration, up to sixteen repositories act as both hub and spoke. For all many-to-one and many-to-many configurations, the same cartridge can be replicated from its principal repository to up to three destination repositories. Different cartridges can be replicated between multiple hub repositories in a bidirectional manner.

61 Remote support through Call Home Remote support is aailable for the TS7650G and the TS7650 Appliance through the Call Home capability on the TSSC. The Call Home feature reports failures detected by the ProtecTIER serers. Wheneer a failure is detected, Call Home sends detailed error information to IBM (home). The IBM Serice Representatie can then prepare an action plan to handle the problem before traeling to the affected installation. The appliance or gateway might also periodically send support information (such as configuration, code ersions, and error logs) to IBM. Doing so speeds-up problem determination and fault resolution. When enabled on the appliance and gateway, Call Home uses a connection on your Ethernet network to transmit hardware and software problem reports to IBM. Call Home is enabled and tested by IBM Serice Representaties during initial system installation. Tip: To enable Call Home, go to the TSSC General Settings page. The Call Home option allows you to select either a Modem or Ethernet interface. Set the Call Home option to use the Ethernet interface for the most reliable error notification. When the Reliability, Aailability, and Sericeability (RAS) software on the ProtecTIER serer detects an error condition, Call Home sends detailed error information through the TSSC to IBM (home). If the error indicates a problem with a field replaceable unit (FRU), an IBM Serice Representatie can then prepare an action plan to handle the problem before traeling to your site. The TS7650G and the TS7650 Appliance proide four Call Home capabilities: Problem Call Home, Heartbeat Call Home, Test Call Home, and User-Initiated Call Home; descriptions follow. RAS sends data files that may be helpful to IBM Support Center personnel for all four types of Call Home. These data files include error logs and configuration information, such as the Machine Reported Product Data (MRPD) log. Test Call Home The IBM Serice Representatie sends a Test Call Home signal after enabling the Call Home feature during initial installation. You can also send a Test Call Home to ensure that the setup is correct and that the appliance or gateway can successfully open a Problem Management Record (PMR) in the IBM Remote Technical Assistance Information Network (RETAIN). Problem Call Home When RAS detects a problem, RAS initiates a Call Home operation to create a PMR in RETAIN. The PMR is a single page of text data that enables the Support Center or the Serice Representatie to access an action plan and a list of applicable FRU components. Heartbeat Call Home To ensure proper ongoing Call Home functionality, the system sends a Heartbeat Call Home on a regularly-scheduled basis. The heartbeat interal is user-defined. User-Initiated Call Home You can manually initiate Call Home from the TSSC GUI to collect a product engineering (PE) package. Chapter 1. Introduction 37

62 Call Home through the TSSC The TSSC is a serice tool that must be present in an IBM-supported TS7650G or TS7650 Appliance. You can either order a TSSC with your appliance or gateway, or use a TSSC already installed at your site. Attention: While it is possible to operate a TS7650G or TS7650 Appliance without a connected TSSC, note that IBM does not support this configuration. For both the TS7650G and the TS7650 Appliance, FC 2722 proides a new TSSC, while FC 2714 and FC 2715 allow connection of an existing TSSC. For more information on these feature codes, see the IBM System Storage TS7650 ProtecTIER Deduplication Appliance and TS7650G Deduplication Gateway Introduction and Planning Guide, GA Table 20 presents the capabilities of remote support with a TSSC.

63 Chapter 2. Physical planning specifications Site preparation This section proides physical planning and site specifications for the TS7650G and the TS7650 Appliance. Before the TS7650G or TS7650 Appliance is installed at your site, erify that the planned installation site meets these requirements, or prepare the site so that it does meet these requirements. Preparations might inole meeting area requirements, enironmental requirements, and electrical requirements for installation, serice, and operation. This section describes the preparation inoled for installation. Use the following information to prepare a location for installation of the system's components. Prepare a floor plan that includes the following information: Power outlet locations, types, and ratings Frame locations Operator and serice clearances Dimensions of the area containing all system components Before hardware installation can begin, the local installation planning representatie must erify that all installation planning and preparation is complete. Additional user responsibilities include planning for the following: Cabling and wiring for connections to the host Cooling and heating Telephone serice (If not using Internet Call Home and support) Safety and security Fire detection and suppression Floors (both raised and non-raised) that meet the operational and structural requirements necessary for the system components Important: You must hae a license for the replication feature for each ProtecTIER serer in the replication grid. For replication to be enabled, the serers at both source and destination locations must be fully installed and configured before any other steps are taken. Use this information for planning at both sites as needed. Consult with Solutions Assurance and your IBM Representatie for assistance and information. Lighting considerations The TS7650G and the TS7650 Appliance are designed for lights-out operation. No special lighting considerations apply. Copyright IBM Corp. 2011,

64 Upgrade considerations Accommodating cables Consult your IBM representatie for current planning information regarding upgrades to the TS7650G or TS7650 Appliance. This section lists considerations when planning for cabling accommodations. Reiew the following considerations when planning for cabling accommodations: Electrical power cabling Plan in adance of deliery for the TS7650G or TS7650 Appliance. This planning includes cabling for a second source if the dual power option has been ordered and if independent sources are intended to be used. Fibre Channel cabling Plan in adance for the TS7650 Appliance adapters to attach to your serers or switch fabric. For the TS7650G, Fibre Channel cabling from the TS7650G adapters to the attaching customer serers or customer switch fabric should be included in the planning, as well as Fibre Channel cabling to any attached physical disk storage. In addition, customers should plan for the Fibre Channel cabling from the serer frame to the disk storage frame. Cat-5e Ethernet cabling Required for attaching the TS7650G or TS7650 Appliance to the TSSC, operator console or consoles, and to the network for replication and for call-home reporting. For OpenStorage, you also need Ethernet cables for host connectiity. Clustered configurations Required for a network connection for the corresponding Ethernet ports on the two TS7650G or TS7650 Appliance serers for mutual operational state monitoring. Analog phone line Required for remote access to the TSSC for TS7650G or TS7650 Appliance support (if not using Internet Call Home and support). Calculating space requirements This section contains information useful for calculating space requirements, such as dimensions, clearances, and weights, for your data deduplication solution. When you plan the installation location, first calculate the total amount of space that is needed for the TS7650G or TS7650 Appliance units, including all serice clearances and weight distribution areas. See the following subsections: Dimensions and weights Operator and serice clearances on page 43 Height requirements on page 44 Floor requirements on page 44 Dimensions and weights When you are planning the floor and space requirements for your storage units, consider the dimensions and weights of your configuration components. 40 IBM System Storage TS7650 and TS7650G ProtecTIER Deduplication Solutions: Introduction and Planning Guide

TS7650G dimensions and weights For the TS7650 Appliance, see TS7650 Appliance dimensions and weights. Table 21 lists the TS7650G component dimensions. Table 21. TS7650G component dimensions Component Height Width Depth 3958 DD mm (7.0 in) mm (19.0 in) mm (28.0 in) The total weight of the TS7650G depends on the number of components installed. Table 22 displays the weight of the gateway serer. Table 22.

67 Figure 24. TS7650 Appliance frame isometric iew Operator and serice clearances Clearances are required around system components for the operator and the serice representatie to perform certain tasks. The serice clearance is the area required to open the serice coers and to pull out components for sericing. The weight distribution area is the area required to distribute the weight of the storage unit. Notes: Size is defined by the depth from the outside of the frame and either the width of a stand-alone frame or the length along any frames installed side-by-side. The width is on a frame-to-frame basis; space required in front or behind each frame is additie. The access space for indiidual frames oerlaps. Required clearance around the frame is listed below: Front: 690 mm (27.2 in.) Back: 660 mm (26.0 in.) Side: 0 mm (0 in.) Unlike weight distribution areas that are required to handle floor loading, keep in mind that serice clearances of adjacent unrelated storage units can oerlap. Chapter 2. Physical planning specifications 43

68 Note: The terms serice clearance and weight distribution area are often confused with each other. The serice clearance is the area required to open the serice coers and to pull out components for sericing. The weight distribution area is the area required to distribute the weight of the storage unit. Aisle and door clearances Two persons should be aailable to moe system components between locations. The following are the minimum aisle and door dimensions for moing components from one location to another: Roof Height 1830 mm (72 in.) Aisle and Door Width 736 mm (29 in.) Corner Radius 2237 mm (88 in.) Ramp Inclination 15 Height requirements The minimum floor-to-ceiling clearance required for installation as well as the required operating and serice clearances are determined by the dimensions of the frames. For the TS7650G, IBM recommends that serer components be installed in a separate frame from disk storage components. For more information, refer to TS7650G hardware components on page 3 or TS7650 Appliance hardware components on page 10. Floor requirements A frame can be installed on a raised or solid floor meeting the minimum leeling and floor-loading capacity requirements. Floor leel requirements This section describes floor leel requirements. The maximum out-of-leel condition is 25.4 mm (1 in.) oer the frame's length and width. For the TS7650G, the customer-supplied frame should proide leeling pads that can be adjusted to compensate for an uneen floor where the frame is to be installed. For the TS7650 Appliance, the frame supplies leeling pads that can be adjusted to compensate for an uneen floor where the frame is to be installed. Weight distribution and floor loading The floor loading (FL) for your TS7650G or TS7650 Appliance must not exceed the floor load rating (FLR) of the location where it will be installed. As an example: the heaiest possible frame configuration is that of a clustered TS7650 Appliance with 36 TB of storage, for a total weight of 728 kg (1605 lb.). Using the guidance gien in IBM Corporate Standard: Machine Mobility, Stability, Size and Mass: Design Requirements, C-S , the FL for this configuration calculates 44 IBM System Storage TS7650 and TS7650G ProtecTIER Deduplication Solutions: Introduction and Planning Guide

69 Security considerations to 249 kg/m 2 (49.3 lb./ft 2 ). Therefore, the FLR at the location where this configuration would be installed must equal or exceed 249 kg/m 2 (49.3 lb./ft 2 ). This does not include additional transient loading by personnel or equipment traffic. If the frame is installed on a raised floor, the raised floor should be stabilized to preent a horizontal shift of the raised floor structure. This section describes the security measures that need to be taken with the TS7650G and the TS7650 Appliance. Controlling access to the TS7650G or TS7650 Appliance is the customer's responsibility. The system should be installed in a controlled-access area to preent unauthorized access to the system's internal components, the TSSC, and ProtecTIER Manager console. For troubleshooting purposes, an IBM serice representatie may need to use the TSSC to open an SSH session on the appliance serer. To do so, the IBM serice representatie will need the ptadmin account password. If the customer has changed the default password, the customer must make the new password aailable to the IBM serice representatie upon request. Operating enironment requirements You must meet specific operating enironment requirements at all the air intake locations of your models. The operating points ary depending on the state of the model. The models can be in the Operating, Non-operating, Storage, or Transit states. Temperature and humidity Table 26 lists the acceptable temperature and humidity ranges in which the TS7650G and the TS7650 Appliance are designed to operate. Table 26. Temperature and humidity requirements Condition Parameter Requirement Temperature 1 Operating range [Altitude: 0 to 914 meters (0 to 3,000 feet)] C (50-95 F) Operating range [Altitude: 900 to 2133 meters (3,000 to 7,000 feet)] C (50-90 F) Note: Aboe 900 m, decrease maximum operating temperature by 1 C. Recommended operating range C ( F) Non-operating range C (50-95 F) Storage range 0-60 C ( F) Transit range -40 C to 60 C (-40 F to 140 F) Chapter 2. Physical planning specifications 45

Particulates and reactie gases Attention: Airborne particulates (including metal flakes or particles) and reactie gases acting alone or in combination with other enironmental factors such as humidity or temperature might pose a risk to the serer in the TS7650G or the TS7650 Appliance. Risks that pare posed by the presence of excessie particulate leels or concentrations of harmful gases include damage that might cause the serer to malfunction or cease functioning altogether. This specification sets forth limits for particulates and gases that are intended to aoid such damage. The limits must not be iewed or used as definitie limits, because numerous other factors, such as temperature or moisture content of the air, can influence the impact of particulates or enironmental corrosies and gaseous contaminant transfer. In the absence of specific limits that are set forth in this document, you must implement practices that maintain particulate and gas leels that are consistent with the protection of human health and safety. If IBM determines that the leels of particulates or gases in your enironment hae caused damage to the serer, IBM might condition proision of repair or replacement of serers or parts on implementation of appropriate remedial measures to mitigate such enironmental contamination. Implementation of such remedial measures is a customer responsibility. 46 IBM System Storage TS7650 and TS7650G ProtecTIER Deduplication Solutions: Introduction and Planning Guide

73 Earthquake safety Proiding a fire-suppression system You are responsible for proiding a fire suppression system for your TS7650G or TS7650 Appliance. IBM designs and manufactures equipment to internal and external standards that require certain enironments for reliable operation. Because IBM does not test any equipment for compatibility with fire-suppression systems, IBM does not make compatibility claims of any kind. IBM does not proide recommendations on fire-suppression systems. Consult your insurance underwriter, local fire marshal, or local building inspector about selecting a fire-suppression system that proides the proper leel of coerage and protection. Earthquake effects There is no guarantee against equipment damage as a result of an earthquake. Many factors influence the stress imposed on system equipment, including: Intensity and duration of the earthquake Equipment structural strength and durability Equipment location within a structure Equipment installation method Building type Soil conditions Guarantees of equipment reliability cannot be made for all earthquakes and conditions. The damaging effects of an earthquake are minimized by appropriate installation and planning techniques. Significant sliding and rocking of equipment during an earthquake might directly or indirectly result in damage. The following steps can help minimize damage: Position equipment far enough from walls to preent or minimize collision. Ensure that power and accessory cables are long enough to accommodate sliding and flexing during an earthquake. Ensure that cable clamps or other strain reliefs are secured properly to equipment. Secure seeral tall units together to form a more stable structure. Use a flexible restraint that allows a limited amount of moement, approximately 75 mm to 150 mm (3 in. to 6 in.), to dissipate energy imparted by the earthquake. Chapter 2.

99 Chapter 5. Customer installation responsibilities This section discusses customer installation responsibilities. Customers are responsible for preparing the installation site, as described in Chapter 2, Physical planning specifications, on page 39, prior to the installation of the TS7650G or TS7650 Appliance. All physical planning for the TS7650G or TS7650 Appliance is a customer's responsibility. In summary, customers are responsible for proiding network connections (cables and switches), SNMP catcher, serers, host clients, and serices for Call Home and IMM alerts. Customers must proide IBM with all necessary IP addresses for the installation of the TS7650G or TS7650 Appliance: two IP addresses per 3958 DD5 or 3958 AP1 serer (for a clustered installation), or one IP address per 3958 DD5 or 3958 AP1 serer (for a stand-alone installation) and one IP address for the TSSC. The customer must supply an analog telephone line for the TSSC, or allow for Internet Call Home and support. The customer must supply a USB keyboard and SVGA monitor for use during the installation process. Note: The OpenStorage host interface requires more IP addresses. Customers are responsible for obtaining a ProtecTIER Manager workstation and for obtaining the appropriate adapters and cables. Fibre Channel cables are required to attach the TS7650G or TS7650 Appliance to arious serer adapters. Cat-5e or better Ethernet cables are required to attach the TS7650G or TS7650 Appliance to iscsi hosts. Refer to TS7650G feature codes on page 51 or TS7650 Appliance feature codes on page 61, as applicable, for a list of cables for the attachment of the TS7650G or TS7650 Appliance. In addition, customers are also responsible for proiding client machines and required Fibre Channel and Ethernet switches as described in the following sections. For an appliance, there are four Fibre Channel connections required for each node. For a gateway, there are eight Fibre Channel connections for each node. Additional Fibre Channel switch ports are required for the storage connectiity. Customers are also responsible for downloading or obtaining from IBM, and installing designated software programs, deice driers, and other software updates in a timely manner from an IBM website or from other electronic media, and following the instructions proided. Important: You must hae a license for the replication feature for each ProtecTIER serer in the replication grid. The systems at both the source and destination sites must be completely installed and configured for replication before the installation of the replication functionality of the TS7650G or TS7650 Appliance can begin. Consult with Solutions Assurance and your IBM Representatie for assistance and information. Attention: For the TS7650 Appliance, before upgrading the ProtecTIER code leel, it is required that the storage subsystem firmware, NVSRAM firmware, and the ESM firmware on your expansion drawers be updated first. You must call IBM Serice to schedule a time to update the firmware. Copyright IBM Corp. 2011,

100 System responsibilities TS7650G considerations For the TS7650G, customer-supplied frames, disk controllers, and disk expansion modules must be fully installed and operational before the installation of the TS7650G can begin. Customers are required to hae an approed disk subsystem aailable and configured according to the guidelines in the Cache configuration best practices on page 77 prior to the installation of the TS7650G. The customer must also supply the appropriate Fibre Channel cables, which an IBM serice representatie will use to attach the TS7650G to the customer-supplied disk subsystem. It is also necessary for the customer to order the appropriate feature code for the selected disk subsystem. Refer to TS7650G feature codes on page 51 for more information. Note: All aspects of the backend disk repository, including configuration, monitoring, code updates, and repair actions are the responsibility of the customer in conjunction with their disk supplier. This section discusses the hardware and system responsibilities of the customer. In addition to meeting the requirements set out in Chapter 2, Physical planning specifications, on page 39, the customer must proide the following hardware and systems. ProtecTIER Manager workstation requirements This section discusses workstation requirements. The ProtecTIER Manager software is used to configure, manage, and monitor the operation of the TS7650G or TS7650 Appliance. The customer are responsible for obtaining the workstation where the ProtecTIER Manager software is installed. The customer can install the software from the supplied ProtecTIER Manager application disk. Complete information about installing and using the ProtecTIER Manager workstation is proided in the IBM System Storage ProtecTIER User's Guide for Enterprise Edition and Appliance Edition, GA The following are hardware and operating enironment requirements for the ProtecTIER Manager workstation. Hardware requirements: x86 (Pentium or higher) microprocessor 256 MB memory 1.2 GB of disk space Access to the ProtecTIER serice node's IP address (Port 3501 and 3503 are open on the firewall.) Keyboard, mouse, and CD-ROM drie Resolution of 1024x768 pixels or higher. (This is the minimum resolution supported, howeer, we recommend 1280x1024.) 24 bit color or higher Operating enironments supported: Windows 32 bit (2003/XP) 76 IBM System Storage TS7650 and TS7650G ProtecTIER Deduplication Solutions: Introduction and Planning Guide

101 Linux Red Hat 32/64 bit (Red Hat Enterprise 4 or 5) Hardware, cabling, and infrastructure responsibilities In general, the customer is responsible for proiding the appropriate infrastructure resources, cables, and switches required to support TS7650G or TS7650 Appliance connections to the ProtecTIER Manager console. Note: The customer must use an additional connectiity deice between the optical Fibre directly connected to RMSS optical adapters (for example, Fibre, ESCON, or FICON) and an external public network. It can be a patch panel, router, switch, or other suitable deice. Optical Fibre connectiity that does not go oer a public network does not require an additional connectiity deice. The customer must proide the following hardware and cabling resources prior to the installation of the TS7650G or TS7650 Appliance. One serer frame with two 220V power distribution units (TS7650G only). One or two disk storage frames, as required, based on the amount of rack space needed for the disk storage components. Each frame must hae two 220V power distribution units (TS7650G only). Fibre Channel cables for connecting the disk controller(s) to the disk expansion modules (TS7650G only). Cat-5e Ethernet cables for the connection between the TS7650G or TS7650 Appliance and the TSSC. Note: Cat-5 cables do not proide sufficient data-transfer rates for the TS7650G or TS7650 Appliance. You must use Cat-5e or aboe. Fibre Channel cables for connecting the TS7650G or TS7650 Appliance serer to the host. 1 SVGA monitor and 1 USB keyboard. Note: This requirement is not necessary for TS7650 Appliance systems with FC 2722 installed. TS7650G customers might consider Feature Code 2722 for the proision of the required TSSC. Note: All customer-supplied hardware components, including frames, switches, client host platforms, and media must be installed and erified as operational by the customer prior to the installation of the TS7650G or TS7650 Appliance. Cache configuration best practices The disk storage array that connects to the TS7650G is a critical element of the TS7650G enironment. This section lists the key factors and common configuration requirements of the back end disk storage array that must be set appropriately in order to establish a proper enironment for ProtecTIER. Note: This section applies only to the TS7650G. Use RAID for data protection and performance. It is recommended that you use RAID 5 with at least fie disk members (4+1) per group for Fibre-Channel user data LUNs (5+1 or 7+1 for SATA disks) and RAID 10 groups for meta data LUNs (with layout per planning requirements). Een if you use SATA dries for user data LUNs, we recommend that you use Fibre-channel disks for meta data LUNs. Chapter 5. Customer installation responsibilities 77

102 For SATA configurations, use RAID 6 instead of RAID 5 for user data LUNs, and enable dual-parity to sustain dual disk failure. Create at least 24 user data RAID groups for best performance optimization. The number of meta data RAID groups will be dictated by the planning session/wizard, and can range from 2 to 10 or more RAID groups. The number of RAID groups needed is based on repository size, factoring ratio, and performance needs. Only create one LUN per RAID group, that is, one LUN that spans the entire RAID group. The only exceptions are the single 1 GB meta data LUN or when the LUNs on the RAID group exceed 8 TB. The 1 GB metadata LUN can be created on any of the meta data RAID groups, but ideally should be placed on the first. Tune the ProtecTIER serer host type in the host connectiity settings for a Linux deice-mapper-multipath client. It may be generally denoted as a Linux host. A repository requires a minimum of four LUNs, one for the cluster database, one for user data and two for meta data. At least 27 LUNs (one cluster, two meta data and 24 user data) gie best performance. The size of the required meta data LUNs/filesystems is a function of the nominal capacity of the repository (physical space and expected factoring ratio) and should be determined prior to the system installation by trained ProtecTIER specialist (FTSS). The size of user data RAID groups and LUNs should be consistent. For example, don't mix 7+1 SATA user data LUNs with 3+1 SATA LUNs. Smaller disk groups will hold back the performance of the larger groups and will degrade the oerall system throughput. Follow this policy for meta data. When expanding the repository, it is important to use the same tier of RAID groups (spindle type & quantity) for meta data or user data as the existing meta and user data groups. For example, if the original two meta data LUNs were built on RAID 4+4 Groups, new meta data RAID groups added must be at least 4+4 to maintain the same leel of performance. Using storage from 2+2 or 4+1 RAID Groups for the expansion could result in performance degradation due to input/output bottlenecks. In storage arrays with actie-actie controller support (that is, a LUN can be accessed from both controllers simultaneously) map LUNs to both controllers for best load-balancing and redundancy. In arrays with only actie-passie support (that is, a LUN can only be accessed by one controller at once) LUN mapping should be interleaed between controllers (that is, LUN 0 on controller A, LUN 1 on B, 2 on A, and so on) in order to establish load-balancing to a similarly effectie degree. Each ProtecTIER node should hae at least one Fibre Channel link/path to each disk array controller. With low SAN switching speeds (for example, 1 GB or 2 GB), two paths per controllers are recommended. When using only two backend Fibre Channel links, use separate HBA ports on the TS7650G to protect against HBA hardware failure. If possible, use patch cords and loop topology between the TS7650G and the disk storage array. This saes expensie fabric ports and reduces the risk of SAN failure. If using SAN P2P topology to connect the TS7650G to the disk array, create a dedicated zone for ProtecTIER backend ports. Do not mix the backend ports (Qlogic) with the frontend ProtecTIER ports (Emulex) or any other SAN deices in the same zone. 78 IBM System Storage TS7650 and TS7650G ProtecTIER Deduplication Solutions: Introduction and Planning Guide

Dedicated zone topology If possible, dedicate the disk storage array to the TS7650G. If not possible, use zoning and LUN masking to isolate the TS7650G from other applications. The TS7650G should neer share RAID groups or LUNs with other applications. ProtecTIER is a random read oriented application. 80 to 90 percent of I/O in a typical TS7650G enironment is random reads at 60 Kb block size. Implement the performance optimizations and tuning recommended by the disk endor for this I/O profile or as recommended in the Best Practices Guide for IBM System Storage TS7600 ProtecTIER Deduplication Solutions, GA The disk storage array firmware ersion leel should be equal to or greater than the firmware ersion leel listed in the ProtecTIER Interoperability Matrix. Make sure that the ISL links between SAN switches connected to TS7650G ports and disk storage arrays are not oersubscribed. See Appendix F, Example cache configuration file, on page 105 for a sample configuration file for a TS7650G with an IBM System Storage DS4000 disk storage array. Security, auditability, and control This product uses the security and auditability features of host hardware, host software, and/or application software to which it is attached. This product uses the security and auditability features of host hardware, host software, and/or application software to which it is attached. The customer is responsible for ealuation, selection, and implementation of security features, administratie procedures, and appropriate controls in application systems and communications facilities.

107 Chapter 7. Planning data migration This section discusses planning for data migration. Use data migration considerations to formulate your data migration plan. There are three leels of considerations to keep in mind when selecting the best method for your enironment. At the first leel, consider broad questions about your enironment to create a generic profile of your needs. At the second leel compare which migration methods fit into your generic profile. The third leel is to reiew a set of hints and other guidelines that apply to specific enironments or that may help you take adantage of a migration to optimize your enironment. The following are some key questions to use to define your generic migration enironment: Why is the data migrating? How much data is migrating? How quickly must the migration be performed? What duration of serice outage can be tolerated? Is the data migration to/from the same type storage? What resources are aailable for the migration? After determining general answers to the considerations listed aboe, a better understanding of some of the migration options along with their adantages and disadantages will help frame your generic profile into a subset of acceptable migration options.

Table 44 on page 99 shows the host names and other settings needed for replication. Write the appropriate information in the spaces proided for future reference. Table 45 on page 100 shows the default IP addresses for the TSSC. Table 46 on page 101 shows the IP address ranges for the gateway or appliance components once they are configured to be on the TSSC's xx network. In the spaces proided in Table 46 on page 101, write the IP addresses that you assign for each component, so that the IP address information is aailable for future reference. Attention: 1. All components use subnet mask Do not configure the replication ports on the same subnet as the external LAN port Eth0. Doing so may cause replication errors. ProtecTIER exposes irtual interfaces to the host, such as a media serer with the plug-in installed. In ersion 3.2, the physical Ethernet ports are assigned to one irtual application interface. Currently, the physical ports are assigned to irtual interface ost1 or fsi1, depending on the serer configuration. This assignment option is used to group seeral physical interfaces into a single irtual interface, and create a bond configuration of seeral physical interfaces. Each irtual interface used must be configured with a corresponding IP address. Attention: Each configured IP address on the same serer needs to be on a different subnet, and each subnet needs to be on a different VLAN. If separate subnets and VLAN s are not used, in certain enironments and networks, network packets can moe to other subnets, which can harm network performance and potentially reduce the network's quality of serice. In addition, each irtual interface containing more than one physical interface (configured as a bond) needs to be configured with a load balancing method. For a Copyright IBM Corp. 2011,

118 serer with 10 Gb interfaces, where bonding is implemented, the recommended load balancing method is LACP with L3L4.

125 Table 46. Base Clusters and Additional Storage Component IP addresses The TSSC IP address range changes from frame to frame, and each new frame increments by a multiple of 10. For example, the first stand-alone frame range would be 10, and the second frame range would be 20. If this is a clustered set of serers, the entry for the first serer (A) will most likely be 10. For the entry for the second serer (B), you will also enter 10 for the frame number. The code will make the adjustment automatically based on the answer you proide during the RAS package installation process that asks you if you are setting up the second node. If you reply "Yes", the code will set the IP range for node 2 at 5 octets higher than what is set for node 1 (serer A). For example, if serer A is set for then serer B will be set for Note: Depending upon the address ranges aailable on the TSSC, the IBM Serice representatie may hae to use ranges other than those shown here.
