(1) port is used for <> heartbeat and administration. The other port is used for file <> system serving. Each node is the owner of (20) file systems and <> has the capability of taking over the partner node file systems. <> <> The storage subsystem consists of (4) dual-controller Sun StorEdge <> NAS 5300 RAID EU controller trays with cache mirroring disabled, <> and (8) Sun StorEdge NAS 5300 RAID EU F expansion trays, totalling <> 168 drives. (40) 3+1 RAID 5 LUNs are configured, with (8) drives <> remaining as hot spares. All LUNs are available to both NAS heads <> via a storage fabric, with each head having primary server <> responsibility for (20) LUNs. (2) Brocade Silkworm 3800 FCAL <> switches instantiate the fabric. In the case that a NAS head fails, <> the remaining head automatically assumes responsibility for LUNs <> belonging to the failed head. Each 252GB file system is built from a <> single segment, with each segment residing on one RAID5 LUN, (1) file <> system per LUN. LUNs are striped vertically across controller and <> expansion trays. <> <> Controller arrays provide battery-backed cache memory. In the <> case that line power is lost, battery power is sufficient to <> preserve cache contents for 72 hours minimum. If the batteries <> are depleted to the extent that they cannot maintain memory for <> 72 hours, the controller will automatically switch to write- <> through mode. Controller arrays were run in split-cache mode; <> software required to configure the arrays in this mode is available <> as a free download from www.sun.com. <> <> NAS heads were run in default mode with respect to hyper-threading. <> The StorEdge NAS operating system is contained on a flash disk <> within the NAS head. The network under test utilized GigaBit <> ethernet with standard frame size. <> =============================================================================== Generated on Tue Jun 7 15:01:23 EDT 2005 by SPEC SFS97 ASCII Formatter Copyright (c) 1997-2004 Standard Performance Evaluation Corporation
