There were 2 Sun StorEdge 2Gb PCI Dual FC Network Adapters in the
tested configuration. Each connects to 2 Sun FCAL 7-port hubs.
Both channels of a Sun StorEdge 6120HA array are connected to each
hub, for a total of 4 Sun StorEdge 6120HA arrays in the tested
configuration, 2 Sun StorEdge 6120HA arrays per Sun StorEdge 2Gb Dual
FC Network Adapter.
Each Sun StorEdge 6120HA array consists of 2 6020 subarrays of 14
disks each, configured as one RAID 0 LUN striped across 14 disks. Two
file systems were configured on each RAID 0 LUN.
Sun StorEdge 6120HA arrays include redundant batteries with
sufficient capacity to allow an orderly shutdown of the array in
the case of AC power loss. In case AC power is lost, the array
will run from the batteries for a time sufficient to flush all data
in its cache to disk, after which the array will shutdown.
