IBM SYSTEM STORAGE DS8800 ARCHITECTURE AND IMPLEMENTATION DOWNLOAD

This reduces the possibility of multiple bad bits accumulating in a sector beyond the ability of ECC to correct them. The team who wrote this book This book was produced by a team of specialists from around the world working at the International Technical Support Organization, San Jose Center. This quality-based design includes such features as reduced power consumption and cooler operating temperatures for increased reliability, enabled by the use of copper chip circuitry, silicon on insulator SOI , and dynamic clock-gating. For even better future compatibility, you should use a size of , cylinders, which is an exact multiple 78 of , a model 3 size. Each storage enclosure has two power supply units PSU. The DS is equipped with high-density storage enclosures populated with 24 small-form-factor SAS-2 drives. Fault masking If corrections and retries succeed and do not exceed threshold limits, the system remains operational with full resources and no client or IBM service representative intervention is required.

However, the physical capacity that is allocated for a LUN is always a multiple of 1 GiB, so it is a good idea to have LUN sizes that are a multiple of a gibibyte. Furthermore, less capacity can mean fewer disk drives and lower power and cooling requirements, which can help reduce costs and complexity. The SSPC can enable a greater degree of simplification for organizations confronted with the growing number of element managers in their environment. For maximum storage efficiency, you should consider allocating volumes that are exact multiples of cylinders.

For more information about the HMC and network connections, see 9. Whenever the device adapter connects impleemntation a disk, it uses a bridged connection to transfer data. Remote support Chapter Hardware components and architecture 31 rack requires two BBUs. It is designed as a high performance, self-healing interconnect.

The following sections show the steps followed in the event of complete power interruption.

The secure overwrite functionality is offered as a service exclusively and is not intended for use by clients, IBM Business Partners, or IBM field support personnel. We want our books to be as helpful as possible. This capability is referred to as simultaneous multi-threading SMT.

Concurrent code updates The architecture of the DS allows for concurrent code updates. In some sense it is similar to a volume within the Extent Pool. In previous AIX versions, kernel errors always resulted ajd an unexpected system halt. On the DS, you simply add extents to the volume.

The DS is equipped with high-density storage enclosures populated with 24 small form factor SAS-2 drives. Because the drive has not yet failed, data can be copied directly to a spare drive. The DS is equipped with high-density storage enclosures populated with architscture small-form-factor SAS-2 drives. TKLM operates on a variety of operating systems. AMP optimizes cache efficiency by incorporating an autonomic, workload-responsive, and self-optimizing prefetching technology.

Standard cabling is optimized for performance and allows for highly scalable configurations with large long term growth. RAID Array Spare Figure Creation of an array So, an array is formed using one array architecturre, and although the array could be accessed by each adapter of the device adapter pair, it is managed by one device adapter.

Fault masking If corrections and retries succeed and do not exceed threshold limits, the system remains operational with full resources and no client or IBM service representative intervention is required. Power line disturbance If line power is not considered reliable, then consider adding the extended power line disturbance PLD feature. Because of the switching design, each drive is in close reach of the device adapter, and some drives will require a few more hops through the Fibre Channel switch.

The time taken for sparing can vary, depending on the size of the failed DDM and the workload on the array and the DA.

Virtualization concepts 87 According to the DS series sparing algorithm, from zero to two spares can be taken from the array site. The Standby Capacity on Demand CoD offering is designed to provide you with the ability to tap into additional storage and is particularly attractive if you have rapid es8800 unpredictable storage growth. However, the switch in the remaining controller card retains the ability to communicate with all the disks and both device adapters DAs in a pair.

This option helps improve the storage density for disk drive modules DDMs as compared to previous enclosures, which only supported 16 DDMs in 3. Published 16 November The status indicators can be seen when the doors are closed. Figure shows the operator panel.
