More I/O ports " Prior to v7.2, we only supported 6 FC ports for backend storage virtualisation " In 7.2.0, we extended the max local port count for backend storage virtualisation to 8 – 2nd 4 port HBA or FCoE (2 port 10Gb card) " Because we support up to 3 I/O cards in the SVC DH8, the maximum local I/O port count for backend storage virtualisation is extended to 12 – maximum local I/O ports is also 12 on SVC DH8 " Check backend controller spec for how many initiator ports from one host a storage controller can handle – Some of the older controller may have a limit for this. • Use zoning to limit the initiator ports according to the limit of the backend controller – Should be able to set up a host group or multiple hosts in the backend controller to work around this

10Gb Ethernet Card (FCoE and iSCSI) " The new 4x port 10GbE card will only be supported in the new SVC DH8 and in the Storwize V7000 2076 -524 " The card is delivered with the SFPs fitted, unless it is a FRU. " In SVC 7.3.0 we will only support 1 x 10GbE adapter in each of the platforms (see above) " Only IBM supported 10Gb SFPs should be used " Each adapter port has amber and green coloured LED to indicate port status – fault LED is not used in 7.3.0.

Compression accelerator adapter " Up to a total of 2 compression accelerator adapters can be installed, each additional adapter installed will improve I/O performance when using compressed volumes – Intel QuickAssist technology is used. IBM is the first in the industry to integrate this technology into our products • second generation Intel Communications Chipset 89xx Series (Coleto Creek) nd – 2 CPU and extra 32 GB of memory are mandatory with the compression accelerator adapter
" The use of compression accelerator adapters is mandatory (at least one) if users wish to use compression on SVC DH8. – For an I/O group containing a SVC DH8 with no compression accelerator, an attempt to create first compressed volume will fail. – The addnode command will also fail, if trying to add a SVC DH8 without a compression accelerator, to an I/O group which has compressed volumes 11

SVC DH8 – Expansion Enclosure 2145 24F " With Release 1 and 7.30 Code – support 2 expansion enclosures per I/O Group " Ports 1 and 3 of the 12 Gb SAS card can be used to attach 2U24 Expansion enclosures of flash drives " Expansion enclosures are physically identical to the V7000 Gen2 expansion enclosures, but will have a different product ID – SVC DH8 cannot use the V7000 Gen2 expansion enclosures, V7000 Gen2 cannot use the SVC DH8 expansion enclosure

Why re-architect Cache? " More scalable for the future – Required for supporting beyond 8K volumes – Required for support beyond 8 node clusters – Required for 64 bit user addressing beyond 28 GB • SVC code only uses 28 GB max today " Required for larger memory sizes in nodes/canisters " Required for more CPU cores " Reduces # of IOPs copy services do directly to the back end storage " Required for flush-less FlashCopy prepare – Allows near CDP like capability " RtC benefits from the cache underneath " Algorithmic independence – Allows changes to pre-fetch and destage algorithms without touching the rest of the cache " Improved debugging capability

Statements of Direction
" IBM intends to enhance the new SVC engine and new Storwize V7000 to support 16 Gb Fibre Channel connectivity " The cache upgrade feature on the new Storwize V7000 provides performance benefit only when Real-time Compression is used. IBM intends to enhance IBM Storwize Family Software for Storwize V7000 to extend support of this feature to also benefit uncompressed workloads. " The second CPU with 32 GB memory feature on SVC Storage Engine Model DH8 provides performance benefit only when Real-time Compression is used. IBM intends to enhance IBM Storwize Family Software for SVC to extend support of this feature to also benefit uncompressed workloads.
