EqualLogic instant intermediate V7.1.5

Hello

I looked at instant how EQL work (AoW) and think have understood that snapshots are children to their basic volume. However, they simply store the adaptations of the previous snapshot...

This is why I'm in doubt it would be OK to remove Instant intermediaries?

The system lets me do, but now I get [ID: 4.18]...

Could someone please elaborate on this?

Thanks in advance

Hello.

The basic volume will always contain the current state of your data.  When you first take a snapshot, there is no modified data.  If the size of the snapshot is null.  When you write data, new data goes to a new page, and the snapshot reserve is used to keep this old 'live' page by the use of pointers.  Deleting a capture instant means pages which are unique to this snapshot, not shared with another snapshot, returned to the snapshot reserve.

Re: Error Message.  There are no mistakes b/c it has up for you as an admin what point in instant time is most critical.  There is no inter dependence between snapshots.  This isn't a differential/incremental backup where you need all the pieces for a complete restoration.

For example, you create a volume and start writing for her.  At 10:00, you create a snapshot, then 11 and 12:00.   You decide to remove the snapshot from 11:00.   All this means is that you cannot restore data from 11:00.  10:00 and 12: 00 are very good.  The snapshot would be this volume exactly how it was at 10:00.  So, in this case probably be preferable to instant every two hours.

If you have to keep, then you sacrifice more free space.

The error comes from the instant scheduled task.  Toggle shouldn't have an effect on it.

Kind regards

  • Intermediate instant deletion/consolidation

    A lot of discussion on the forum about the removal of instant intermediaries whose conclusion is (I think) that it's a bad idea and that she will probably lead to a system crash.

    In view of the foregoing, any suggestions on how to handle the following situation:

    Imagine a Machine virtual, composed of a string of snapshots, A, B, C, D, E, F.  Snap B, D and E are just too much room.  I realize that I can clone snap F / liquidation with a consolidated virtual machine, but what can do if my goal is to keep the Snap A and FA Snap?

    Any way to do it?

    Just highlight the nodes that you want to delete (B) and click 'delete '.

    It is perhaps against intuitive, but 'delete' mean 'merge to the right node'

  • Question about Equallogic snapshots.

    Hello forum

    I could not confirm this, but instant never need to commit anything to the basic volume?

    Lets say I have 10 snapshots and delete the oldest? There will be a load of e/s to validate these instant changes?

    Also, if someone could point me to any type of indepth explanation of this technique of snapshot, I would be interested to read all that.

    Thank you!

    N ° current data are already on the base volume.  There is nothing to commit.   Only if you are completely restoring a volume from a snapshot will be there in writing for the base volume.

    Solution title TABLE: how the snapshot reserve space is allocated and used

    Solution details Snapshot Reserve Allocation and use

    -------------------------------------

    In a series group PS, snapshots can protect against errors, of a volume

    virus or the database. A cliché represents the content of a volume

    at the time you created the snapshot. Creating a snapshot does not disturb

    access to the volume, and the snapshot is instantly available allowed

    iSCSI initiators.

    Before you can create snapshots for a volume, you must allocate space (called

    snapshot pool) for snapshots. You set the value of the snapshot reserve

    When you create or modify a volume. Snapshot reserve benefits from the same

    as the volume of the pool data.

    When snapshot data consume entire supply snapshot, the Group remove is

    the oldest snapshots to free up space for new images or sets the volume and

    snapshots offline, according to the policy you selected for instant recovery

    space.

    The functionality for creating snapshots is called hybrid allocate when writing.

    Operation of sharing and snapshot of the page

    -----------------------------------

    A PS Series Group organizes the physical storage into logical segments called pages.

    Each page is composed of several logical blocks. This is similar to the way file

    systems combine areas of physical disk in 'clusters' or 'chunks '. Each page has

    a reference count which records the number of volumes and snapshots that share

    the page.

    When you create a volume, the group creates an internal table, called the volume

    table, which contains pointers to pages that use the volume. When you create

    a snapshot of a volume, the group creates a snapshot table by making a copy of

    the volume table, which is usually an operation in memory that the Group

    run in a transactional manner. For each page of volume in use, the support group increases the

    reference count to indicate that the volume and the snapshot share page.

    Because the group does not move or copy the data or allocates a new pages, photos

    are fast and efficient.

    Reserve of the snapshot stores the differences between the data on the volume and snapshot data

    (in addition to differences between the data of multiple snapshots). When you

    first create a snapshot, the page for the volume and the snapshot tables are

    In brief identical copies and the snapshot consumes no snapshot

    reserve. A reading of the same logical block of the volume application or the

    snapshot returns the same data because the application is reading from the same page.

    However, if you write a page that has a volume and a snapshot of share, snapshot

    reserve is consumed.

    Here's a simplified example of a snapshot operation. In general, no.

    additional I/o operations are needed to manage the data volume or snapshot.

    However, other internal operations can occur due to virtualization and

    data balancing on berries of the PS Series.

    If an application performs a write to 8 KB for a volume containing a snapshot, the

    Group:

    1. determine what page is modified by the write operation.

    2 - If the page is not shared, writes the data to the page.

    3. If the page is shared:

    . (a) allocates a new page of disk space and reduces the instant to reserve

    . the volume of a single page.

    . (b) update the page of volume table to point to the newly allocated page.

    . (c) mark the newly allocated page as having new data on the volume and the references of the

    . original page for unchanged data.

    . (d) writes the data to the new page.

    When writing is complete, if you read the data on the volume, you have access to the

    new page and new data. However, if you read the same logical block of the

    Instant, you get the original data, because the snapshot will always point towards the

    original page. Similarly, if you set a snapshot online, write to the snapshot.

    feature hybrid write protects the original data volume by allocating

    a new page for the new snapshot data.

    Only the first page of writing to a volume shared (or snapshot) consumes additional

    snapshot reserve. Each subsequent entry is considered identical to a writing on a

    non-shared the page because the original data are already protected.

    Functionality similar to hybrid allocate when writing is used in cloning operations.

    However, unlike when you create a snapshot, cloning a volume immediately

    consumes space additional group. If a clone is moved to another pool, data

    is copied during the operation of moving pool.

    Restoring a Volume from a snapshot

    ----------------------------------

    Because of the layout table, restore a volume from a snapshot is very

    quick. First of all, the group automatically creates a snapshot of the volume by copying

    the volume table to a new table of snapshot. Then the Group transposes the page tables

    the volume and the snapshot you selected for the restore operation. NO.

    additional space is required, and no data is moved.

    Deletion of Volumes and Snapshots

    ------------------------------

    Because volumes and snapshots to share pages, if you delete a volume, you

    automatically remove all the clichés associated with the volume.

    You can manually delete snapshots (for example, if you need more of)

    snapshot data). In addition, the group can delete snapshots automatically in the

    following situations:

    1 - failure instant free reserve. If the snapshot data consume the snapshot

    . reserve, the group either deletes the oldest snapshots to free up space for new

    . snapshots or sets the volume and snapshots in offline mode, according to the policy

    . you have chosen for the snapshot space recovery.

    2 - maximum number of snapshots, created from an agreed timetable. If you set up a

    . timetable for the creation of snapshots, you can specify the maximum number of

    . photos you want to keep. Once the program creates the maximum number

    . clichés, the group will delete the oldest snapshot for planning

    . to create a new snapshot.

    Snapshot are deleted in the background queue. The group travels

    the snapshot page table and decremented the reference count on every shared page.

    Any page that has a zero reference count is released into free space. Pages

    with a zero reference count are not released because they are shared with

    the volume or other snapshots.

    Because stereotypes can be automatically deleted, if you want to keep the

    given to a snapshot, you can clone the snapshot.

    Reserve snapshots use agreement

    ------------------------------------

    The snapshot reserve is consumed only if you write a shared volume or snapshot

    page. However, it is difficult to establish a correlation between the amount of data written in one

    volume (or snapshot) with the amount of instant reserve consumed as a result.

    especially if you have multiple snapshots.

    Because the pages consist of several logical blocks, size e/s and distribution

    volume merge affect overall performance of e/s in addition to the snapshot

    reserve its use.

    For example, do much written about a narrow range of logical blocks in a volume

    consumes a relatively low amount of reserve of the snapshot. This is because as Scripture

    the same logic block more than once, does not require not additional snapshot

    reserve.

    However, doing random number wrote a range of logical blocks in a

    volume can consume a large amount of reserve of the snapshot, because many other

    pages are affected.

    In general, use instant reserve depends on the following:

    1. number of entries that occur in the volume (or snapshot) and at least one

    . snapshot exists. In general, more Scriptures tend to use more snapshot reserve.

    . Although multiple writes to the same logical block do not require additional

    . space.

    2 - the range of logical blocks, on which occur the Scriptures. Written in a wide range of

    . logical blocks tend to use more instant reserve written in a narrow

    . rank, because more of the written word are to different pages.

    3. number of snapshots of the volume and timing of the write operations. Most

    . snapshots that you create more snapshot reserve is necessary, unless there is

    . few entries on the volume or snapshots.

    4 - age of snapshot. Snapshots older tend to consume more snapshot reserve only

    . the clichés of recent because the group must retain the original data for a

    . longer time.

    Design Snapshot reserve

    -----------------------

    You cannot create snapshots until you book instant space. Snapshot reserve

    is set as a percentage of the reserve volume (space) for the

    volume.

    When you create a volume, by default, the volume uses instant group-wide

    reserve adjustment. (The reserve in the scale default setting is 100%. You

    can change this default value.) You can change the reserve snapshot setting when you

    create a volume or later, even if the volume is in use.

    Although the snapshot reserve is not used until the volume or writing snapshot occur, it

    is consumed immediately free pool space. For example, if you create a

    fully allocated (not thin provisioned) 200 GB volume and specify a snapshot of 50%

    pool of reserve, free space is immediately reduced to 300 GB (200 GB for the volume

    reserve and 100 GB for Snap reserve), even if there are no pages in use.

    Therefore, before you create a volume, you should consider how many snapshot

    reserves, if any, to assign to the volume. The reserve of the snapshot set to zero (0)

    If you do not want to create snapshots.

    The optimal size of the snapshot reserve depends on the amount and type of

    changes in the volume and the number of shots you want to keep.

    By example, if you set the snapshot reserve 100%, and then create a snapshot.

    You can write to each byte of the volume without missing snapshot

    reserve. However, if you create another snapshot and then write in each byte of

    the volume, the first snapshot is deleted in disk space available for the new snapshot. If

    you set the instant reserve at 200%, there would be a sufficient reserve of snapshot

    for the two snapshots.

    A very conservative strategy in terms of instant reserve sizing is to put the snapshot

    book value at 100 times the number of shots you want to keep. This

    guarantees that keep you at least the number of snapshots, regardless of the

    the number of entries on the volume. However, this strategy is generally allocates

    book an excessive amount of snapshot, because that rarely crush you all the

    the data in a volume during the lifetime of a snapshot.

    The best way to instant size reserves is to assign an initial value to the reserve

    and watch how instant you can keep over a period of time specified under a

    normal workload. If you use tables to create snapshots, allow the

    calendar of work for several days.

    To get an initial value for a snapshot reserve volume, you must estimate

    the quantity and the type of entries in volume and the number of snapshots, you want

    keep. For example:

    -If you wait a few Scriptures or writings which are concentrated in a narrow range

    . logical blocks and you want to keep only a few shots, start with a value

    . 30%.

    -If you wait several entries or entries that are random in a wide range of

    . logical blocks and you want to keep more than a few shots, start with a value

    . 100%.

    If the snapshots are deleted until you reach the desired number of snapshots,

    increase the percentage of snapshot reserve. If you reach the desired number

    shots without consuming much of the instant free reserve, decrease the

    percentage of reserve snapshot. Continue to follow instant reserve and

    adjustments as needed.

    How Thin Provisioning button Snapshot Reserve

    ----------------------------------------------

    The snapshot reserve is based on a percentage of volume reserve (allocated space

    a volume). For a volume fully provisioned, the reserve volume is equal to the

    stated volume size. However, a thin volume put into service, the volume of reserve

    is initially very inferior to the reported size (default is subject to minimum volume

    10% of the reported size) and increases as the written volume occur.

    If you change a thin volume supplied in a volume fully provisioned, the

    amount of reserved snapshot increases automatically, because the volume of reserve

    increase in the size of the stated volume.

    If you change a volume of fully provisioned to thin-provisioned, the amount of

    snapshot of reserve decreases automatically, because the volume of reserve declines.

    However, if the snapshot resulting reserves will be too small to store all the

    existing snapshots, the group will automatically increase the instant reserve

    percentage of value that preserves all existing snapshots.

    Reducing the use of instant reserve

    -------------------------------

    Over time, you can reduce the use of instant reserve by periodically (for example,

    Once a month) defragmentation of databases and file systems. Defrag operations

    try to consolidate segments of files in a volume and, consequently, to reduce the scope

    logical blocks addresses used in the pages of the volume.

    Defragment the data read operations from one place and then write data to a new

    location. So increased use of instant reserve during and immediately

    after defragmentation, because existing snapshots will use more of the usual

    amount of the snapshot reserve. However, snapshots created after defragmentation

    operation must use less instant reserve, because the data on the volume are more contiguous.

    When a volume is highly fragmented, potential reduction of the snapshot reserve

    use can be dramatic, especially after removing the large before you defragment

    snapshots. Defrag operations can also reduce the I/O load on the group,

    because the contiguous data makes more efficient i/o operations, in order to improve the

    e/s overall performance.

    Latest defragmenters are good to reduce the fragmentation that is not seeking to be

    too thorough. Some defragmenters also try to combine the inactive data

    further restricting the likelihood of changes to shared pages. However, are not

    Defragment too frequently.

    Sector alignment may also affect the use of snapshot of the space, especially in

    larger volumes. File systems must be correctly aligned with the sector. It comes

    described in technical reports for VMware and Windows environments.

  • Snapshots created with the EqualLogic VSS provider are not displayed in SAN HQ

    Hello

    Poster for the first time. We have just implemented an EqualLogic SAN, PS6100X network, and we're having performance issues between our DPM backup server, one of our hosts Hyper-V and VM images stored on the San. I will try to provide as much information as I can

    Environment:

    Dedicated iSCSI using Dell Force10 switches network

    hyper-V (Windows Server 2008 R2) 3 hosts
    -2 hosts has a NETWORK 4 port GB dedicated adapter connected to the iSCSI network; 1 host has connected to the network iSCSI NETWORK 2 GB dedicated ports card
    -Each Hyper-V host computer has a dedicated on the EQ SAN, RAID-50 volume that stores the Hyper-V virtual machines
    -EQ VSS provider installed on all hosts Hyper - V 3 and works correctly

    Using DPM 2010 for backup

    Problem: on Hyper-V hosts 1 and 2, any/all backup activities are very slow. On the Hyper-V host 3rd, however, activities related to backup all are incredibly fast! We compared the NIC configurations, HIT / settings ME and ASM, but we cannot understand why it is so slow on hosts 1 & 2.

    In addition, whenever DPM 2010 tells the EQ VSS provider to create a snapshot, we see the snapshot being created in the EQ Team Manager, but he does not appear in the list of iSCSI connections. According to the documentation SAN HQ, instant and volumes should appear here.

    We also disabled TcpAckFrequency for all 3 hyper-v hosts. It helped a little, but there is still a HUGE difference with regard to backups of the DPM.

    We're pretty sure that there is something misconfigured on the hosts Hyper - V 1 & 2, given that the host Hyper-V 3 has no performance issues.

    How can I get snapshots to appear in the list of iSCSI SAN HQ connections?

    Version information:
    SAN AC = 2.2.0.5924
    Storage Array Firmware = 5.2.4

    There are two different issues in this post for the SANHQ doesn't show only not iSCSI connections.

    Now SANHQ displays the correct total connection number but doesn't provide details of connections individual iSCSI for snapshots, which it should. So in the meantime use Workgroup Manager that shows the details for each snapshot (I know that's not the best answer, it's a short term solution).

    The fact the SANHQ shows details of instant connection does not mean that they aren't here and I can't imagine anything to do with the question of the DPM.

    The real difficulty, look for upcoming beta SANHQ and subscription for this on the EQL support site. You can do it now.

  • EqualLogic tools - what does what?

    Nobody knows what the HIT KIT's or software SANHQ not?

    -Allthebest1976

    The HIT (Host Integration Toolkit) Kit is a set of tools that provides, among other things, snapshots to the current demand for EqualLogic.  It includes their own VSS writer of so that if you take a snapshot of a LUN EqualLogic connected to a server, it will first use this driver to stop all the entries to apply instant consistent.

    This feature is only available if you use the inside the VM iSCSI initiator to connect directly to LUNS on the EqualLogic Bay.  If you are using VMDK files for virtual machines then the HIT Kit will have little value, but if you use directly attached LUN for things like Microsoft Exchange, then, it is useful.  See also their Auto Snapshot Manager for VMware (http://www.equallogic.com/partnerships/default.aspx?id=6523) and Microsoft (http://www.equallogic.com/partnerships/default.aspx?id=6467) products.

    It also provides additional value as MPIO improved but that there are still invited initiated iSCSI connections and will complicate somehow your configuration (more info about MPIO on a virtual machine when you use EqualLogic, look here: http://communities.vmware.com/thread/259695?start=30&tstart=0)

    As others have said, SanHQ is a great tool to monitor the performance of your EqualLogic Bay.  Dell has done a really nice job with this software because it is clean and gives really useful information (as the latency of the IOPS / s and storage).

    Hope that answers your question.

  • EqualLogic SAN volume issue

    As I am virtualizing our infrastructure, a thought occurred to me.  First, the Installer - 3 hosts vSphere 4 connected to a SAN EqualLogic PS6000XV network.  We use iSCSI on the network for connectivity maps.  I was put in service a volume by comments on the side EqualLogic.  We did not do anything with the snapshots or replication - that will come later.  Our immediate goal is just to virtualize our servers and continue our backup and restore as usual procedures.  This is likely to change so we can use snapshot technologies, but also the stuff of VMware.  Anyway, to my question.  Should I continue this way?  One volume per person.  Or should I do a large volume and then put my VMs on the single volume?  On the SAN, the whole thing is configured in RAID-50.  I made only a handful of non-critical servers to date.  I'm not sure what are the best practices in this scenario.  What worries me is that if I continue this way, I could lose some instant advantage later or something like that.

    While the expansion of VMFS volumes is less a problem in vSphere that it was in the past, the point is that having a unit logic by VM number increases management and effort if you need to grow the hard disk to the virtual machine.  If you need to add 20 GB for drive E: one of your virtual machines, it's easy to do when using large volumes because you probably the free space to simply increase the size of the virtual disk.  If you use the method "a unit logic by VM number", you may initially increase the size of the LUN on the EqualLogic, then extend the VMFS volume in vSphere, and finally to increase the size of the virtual disk across comments.

    Another part of the equation is the backup of the virtual machine.  Many tools available for VMware backup can make backup 'LAN-free' by connecting directly to the storage.  To do this, you must present the VMFS volumes on a Windows backup server and the software then reads directly from there, rather than transfer on each ESX host network.  If you use a product that saved using this method, you must present all of your VMFS volumes to this server from Windows instead of just one or two larger LUN.

    I have seen many different deployments of VI3/vSphere and saw the two one LUN per VM model, as well as the virtual machine of 15-20 by the largest LUN model.  In almost all cases, those who did a unit number logic by VM regretted and find it difficult to manage without any real advantage.

  • Files that are opened in a bound iCloud application are instantly copied to the application folder in iCloud.

    When I open a file in any folder in the finder, in an application that is linked to iCloud, i.e. 'Expert PDF' or 'Preview', I opened, the file will be copied to the application folder instantly. This only happens on Mac.

    On Mac, the file appears in the folder something like a shortened (as in the picture):

    If I open the mobile application (i.e. PDF Expert) there is a copy of the file in the application folder.

    I first thought that would happen only with Expert PDF, but I discovered that it happens with any application that is enabled in the settings of the iCloud drive. It's really annoying to remove them, every time that you open the. That this feature was actually supposed to do, is create a folder in iCloud drive that is assigned to the application on any device to iCloud.

    Maybe someone knows how to turn it off, or maybe it's just a bug.

    It looks like a feature and not a bug.

    iCloud is not really duplicate files in the files collection of application.  It looks like a file duplicate of the same size as the original, that you have opened, but iCloud is record storage by creating symbolic links. .

    I checked several of apparent duplicates in the Terminal, and if I list the file with the Terminal command

    LS - li somefileoniclouddrive

    I see that the inodes are identical to the original and the duplicate.  So no additional storage is required.

  • Storage of 1 TB icloud is 'Full' instantly

    Hello

    I just bought a 1 TB of storage icloud and with the 1st attempt to copy a file, I got the message ' point 'Photos' cannot be copied because there is not enough free space. "

    How does the iCloud?  I bought the extra space in order to save my old NTFS hard drives so I could then wipe them and format them to HFS before returning data

    I am so - drag files directly from an external drive, so they are copied. It is true that the first case was big enough - 220 GB. So I went to smaller - 1 GB worked, 9 GB worked, but then 14 GB does not.

    Then I tried a few new smaller files - about 1 GB and they worked but then a record 2.6 GB failed.

    I tried 3 files totalling 39 GB of my local documents directory - and they moved (not copied) "instantly".

    What happens here? Is it because it's an external hard drive? Because it is NTFS? The fact that I have less than 1 GB of storage available on my boot drive it affect?

    Also - when I moved the data to local storage to icloud, when will I see the space on my local drive actually become free?

    In a perfect world, I really wish I could you select the 990 GB of several files on my external hard drive, and then drag to icloud only once - then leave from one day to the next, or more.

    Is this possible?

    Thank you

    If these data you "move" to iCloud aren't on your system drive, it is your question.

    iCloud is a synchronization between your local system drive and iCloud service. So if you copy data to an external hard drive, what you're doing is to copy it to your local HD and your iCloud drive.

    The message of the space isn't likely your system drive, icloud.

    The documents folder moved smoothly, because this content was already on your system disk. You just change the file locations.

    iCloud is NOT a hard drive in the sky that you can move data. It is a service of synchronization between the file called iCloud drive on your local system drive and iCloud himself.

    At the end of synchronization, they will have the same content. Same amount of occupied space.

    "In a perfect world, I really wish you select the 990 GB of several files on my external hard drive, and then drag to icloud only once - then leave from one day to the next, or more."

    N ° not like iCloud is currently being implemented.

    Firefox worked very well for many years, I update it every time there is an update. He was working a little more than 2 hours. I closed it to work on something else, when I back to open again this starting happening in Firefox.

    Other browsers work fine. IE Chrome and Edge everything works fine.

    Could you please advice what I can try next. Thank you.

    Oh, thanks for the recent report of incidents. It is a problem with the secure certificate.

    I suggest renaming the cert8.db file in case it is damaged, although if you deleted all your Firefox data, this will probably not help.

    This file is located in your current Firefox profile folder, you can find by following the steps in this article: profiles - where Firefox stores your bookmarks, passwords and other user data.

    Firefox starts after that?

    You can also try the following if you delete your Firefox program folder when reinstalling previously:

    Clean reinstall it

    We use this name, but it isn't about deleting your settings, this is to ensure that the program, files are clean (not incompatible, corrupt or exotic code files). As described below, this process does not disrupt your existing settings. Don't uninstall NOT Firefox, that does not need.

    (A) download a fresh Installer for Firefox 42.0 https://www.mozilla.org/firefox/all/ in an ideal location. (Scroll down your preferred language).

    (B) the release of Firefox (if any).

    (C) simply rename the folder of the current programme, either:

    (Windows 64-bit folder names)

    C:\Program Files (x86)\Mozilla Firefox
    

    TO

    C:\Program Files (x86)\OldFirefox
    

    (Windows 32-bit folder names)

    C:\Program Files\Mozilla Firefox
    

    TO

    C:\Program Files\OldFirefox
    

    (D) run the installer downloaded to (A). It should automatically connect to your existing settings.

    Firefox works normally?

    Note: Some plugins can only exist in this OldFirefox file. If it is missing something essential, present in these files:

    • \OldFirefox\Plugins
    • \OldFirefox\browser\plugins

    Otherwise, there is no reason to keep the old folder except research/curiosity.

    Example: I am on YouTube. I play a video. I click to enlarge to full screen. He SLOWLY slips stuff on. It SLOWLY expands to fill the screen. Is anyone seriously lame attempt to try to be cool? It wasn't always like that. And Safari is always: click the full screen and it is full screen INSTANTLY.

    How can I make Firefox expand a video in full screen INSTANTLY?

    Thank you!

    It is possible that they have the same effect.
    I don't know about it, then you have to check that the extension disabled.
    I don't know if this setting is saved and continues after you close and then restart Firefox.

    Your username appears to be rather ironic.

    Given the richness of the information you provided, I guess, whatever the version of Pages that you use, you've opened the model selector.
