The Isilon S210, built on Isilon's proven scale-out storage platform, provides enterprises with industry-leading IO/s from a single file system, single volume. The S210 accelerates business and increases speed-to-market by providing scalable, high performance storage for mission critical and highly transactional applications. In addition, the single filesystem, single volume, and linear scalability of the OneFS operating system enables enterprises to scale storage seamlessly with their environment and application while maintaining flat operational expenses. The S210 is based on enterprise-class 2.5" 10,000 RPM Serial Attached SCSI drive technology, 10GbE Ethernet networking, and a high performance Infiniband back-end. The S210 scales from as few as 3 nodes to as a high as 144 nodes in a single file system, single volume.

Memory Notes
Each storage controller has main memory that is used for the operating system and for caching filesystem data. A separate, integrated battery-backed RAM module is used to provide stable storage for writes that have not yet been written to disk.
Stable Storage
Each storage node is equipped with an nvram journal that stores writes to the local disks. The nvram has backup power to save data to dedicated on-card flash in the event of power-loss.
System Under Test Configuration Notes
The system under test consisted of 14 S210 storage nodes, 2U each, connected by QDR Infiniband. Each storage node was configured with a single 10GbE network interface connected to a 10GbE switch.

Load Generator Configuration Notes
All clients were connected to a single filesystem through all storage nodes
Uniform Access Rule Compliance
Each load-generating client hosted 192 processes. The assignment of processes to network interfaces was done such that they were evenly divided across all network paths to the storage controllers. The filesystem data was striped evenly across all disks and storage nodes
