NEC Corporation Revision 6.0, November 2013 10 CONFIGURATION GUIDE – NEC EXPRESS5800/R320a-E4 / Linux model Required System Disk Capacity Required system disk capacity depends on the partition configuration pattern and memory size. Refer to the tables below for HDD requirements. For example, pattern 1 with 24GB memory requires 146.5GB or larger capacity HDD and pattern 3 with 96GB memory requires 300GB HDD. It is recommended to install hard drives providing the minimum required system disk capacity to reduce the time to resynchronize after a hard drive replacement.

If this does not meet your system requirements, consider a double backup configuration. Refer to the following notes on double backup configuration.   When configuring two sets of a SAS controller, a SAS cable and a backup device, two backup devices are recognized separately by the OS. When scheduling an automatic backup job, make a job for each backup device so that the other backup device can backup in case one device fails. In a double backup configuration, the device numbers of the tape devices may switch in the event of an IO module failover. When this occurs, automatic backup cannot be performed. To resolve the situation, re-enter the appropriate device settings again. 8.6.4 Supported backup software See the table below for the supported backup software on NEC EXPRESS5800/R320a.
