Storwize V7000 2-4 I/O Groups Clustered System
No interconnection of SAS chains between control enclosures as control enclosures communicate via FC and must use all 8 FC ports on enclosures Expansion Enclosures

Expansion Enclosures
An I/O Group is a control enclosure and its associated SAS attached expansion enclosures Clustered system can consist of 2-4 I/O Groups Scale capacity/throughput 4x – Up to 1.4PB raw capacity or 960 drives in two 42U racks
Non-disruptive upgrades – From smallest to largest configurations – Purchase hardware only when you need it
Cluster
• No extra feature to order and no extra charge for a clustered system • Configure one system using USB stick and then add second using GUI An I/O Group is a control enclosure and its associated SAS connected expansion enclosures

V7000 Unified - Upgrade •
6 up to 24 RU solution – When clustering multiple Storwize V7000 storage modules via a redundant SAN fabric (via FCP or FCoE), we are be able to scale up to 84 RU (+ SAN connectivity)
• • •
File modules are provided in a pair (cluster) Same code as SONAS Each file module has all functions – Management node a node is active while the other is standby – Interface node both nodes are active – Storage node both nodes are active and directly attached to Storwize V7000
• •
Direct redundant LAN connectivity between both file modules All NAS functions are included with the hardware upgrade – no single protocol charges are necessary. – Includes: CIFS, NFS, FTP, HTTP, SCP, Async Replication, ACE Business Breakfast mit IBM

Real-time Compression – Basics • Compression is an alternative to Thin Provisioning – They both allow you to use less physical space on disk than is presented to the host
• A Compressed Volume is “a kind of” Thin Provisioning – Only uses physical storage to store compressed data – Volume can be built from a pool using internal or external MDisks
• Compression requires the I/O group hardware be one of the following platforms – SVC Model 2145-CF8/CG8 Nodes – Storwize V7000 Model 2076-1xx/3xx Control Enclosure
• Can use Volume mirroring to convert to a Compressed Volume

Real-time Compression – Basics • All copy services will interoperate with compressed Volumes
Clients
– All copy services will be working with uncompressed data
Front End
• No real changes in sizing and planning for FlashCopy or replication
Remote Copy
– Bandwidth sizing for replication same for compressed/non-compressed Volumes – Compression engine resources allocated per I/O group need considered in sizing
Cache Flash Copy Mirroring Thin Provisioning Virtualization
Random Access Compression Engine™
• All Thin Provisioning properties apply to compressed Volumes – Virtual capacity, real capacity, used capacity, etc.
Back End
• New property introduced Storage
SVC S/W Component
– Uncompressed capacity
• Provides an indication of how much uncompressed data has been written RACE S/W Component ©2013 IBM Corporation 10 Business Breakfast mit IBM to the Volume
What compression ratio will I achieve? • If you do not have a V7000 (new customer) – Then you can use the “Comprestimator” Tool if you use RHEL5, ESX5, Windows 2003+ or AIX 6.1+ hosts.
1.Download Comprestimator from IBM website 2.Upload Comprestimator to Server – e.g. “scp Comprestimator root@IP_of_ESXServer:/
3.Change file to executable – “chmod +x Comprestimator”
4.Identify Volumes
5.Run Comprestimator
