iSCSI and Fibre Channel on the Dell PowerVault MD3000 SAN shaerd with 2 physical servers

Hi all

I'm doing new virtualization technologies work in my office for assistance:

2 x Dell PowerEDGE 2950 III each installed with iSCSI next accessing the SAN controller

1 x Dell PowerVault MD3000 (10 x 300 GB 15 k rpm SAS)

The

VMWare ESXi is installed in an internal USB to load 4 x virtual machines which is

under SOLARIS (using project, houses, SAMBA file server and)

Source code repository and compile the source code of the project Build

Server too.)

5 x Windows Server 2003 which perform as Apache Tomcat application server.

And

I wonder if it has performance benefits in the application of the

Shared SAN for these two physical server via iSCSI in contrast with

Fiber Channel.

I am aware that CF is faster and more expensive, but in this case, I won t run a VM with DB server on it.

must

I enter the path to have iSCSI or stick with the given FC

the SAN runs on 15 k rpm SAS used by 2 ESXi server.

Please let us know of a reflection regarding this configuration.

Thank you

Usually, you take NIC 1 gb connections available on your host and configure them as such.

2 network cards go to the San, most of the time that it is actually two networks with different subnets.

1 network card next LAN

1 network card for the management

We only use three network cards currently on our guests, 2 for San and the other for management and lan. We use two switches dedicated to dedicated networks dual iSCSI san. This allows to easily add additional hosts in the future.

You get to decide a bit, but the double san network is pretty much a given. You can do all this of course with the VLANs as well. We use the switches unmanaged yet in our Organization.

PS: Passing path recommended is to have completely isolated storage of the LAN network / network of the user.

  • I have problem with Muse files when you work at home with my laptop and when I open the files again in my work with my IMac.

    I have problem with Muse files when you work at home with my laptop and when I open the files again in my work with my IMac.

    I do: when I am uncomfortable with the laptop I save the files on the laptop, then on my external hard drive. Then, when I'm at work, I opened the drive, but the Muse says every time, that so many links in the 'active' is missing. And it takes a lot of time to get all the missing link. Like today I had to open a file of Muse from the external hard drive, and there are about 100 links that are missing.

    How can I solve this problem

    the best thing if you are a user of creative cloud is to store the files in a folder in your account of cloud instead of transferring the files from one computer to another.

    If you are not a Subscriber cc then Dropbox or iCloud will work as well.

  • Problem with XServe and XServe RAID via Fibre Channel

    Hello everyone,

    I have a problem with my blended Xserve RAID.

    I see in RAID-Admin and configure it successfully (via Ethernet). Connect with our Xserve via Fibre Channel, but the XServe and XServe RAID do not detect each other.

    The fiber on the Xserve channel LEDs are white on the Xserve RAID completely off and permanent.

    RAID-Admin status of Fibre Channel: 'No connection (1 table)' with a red square.

    If I try to open the utility of fiber channel I get the message: "card Fibre Channel is not found." Utility disk OS X can't, too.

    I changed the card connector cable, and made several reboots. But each time the same thing: they do not detect each other.

    Xserve (2009):

    -2.26 GHz Quad-Core Intel Xeon 5500

    -Map of Apple dual-channel 4 Gb Fibre Channel (LSI7204EP)

    XServe RAID:

    -RAID 5 in an array (only on the left with 5 x 500 GB)

    -1.5.1 Firmware

    -Cable Apple 4 Gb SFP - SFP

    Thanks for your help and sorry for my bad English!

    Hi Mpm-Mainz,

    Check if you have enabled LUN masking. To be able to see, you will need to download raid admin 1.5 not the 1.5.1

    Xserve RAID Admin Tools 1.5

    Have you also tried to use the other controller? Even if there is no disc in there, then it should appear in the preferences of fiber card system.

    Thank you

  • A system totally crashed after downloading the update of windows 7 (from VHP) reloaded vista starting the Dell restore partition and reattach the requirements. Now, how can I restart upgrade

    OK, here's the deal... the Dell laptop had a recurring software validation fixed an error that I couldn't keep. I would fix it, Vista should go out and update itself and then I would reboot and bang, back right to the error again, I decided to scrap Vista and install W7. I corrected the error again once restarted in a stable Outlook, downloaded files of Windows 7 upgrade and then discovered that the netframework wasn't right, so I downloaded this solution, am to halfway through it and got a system error. HA! I'll just copy this download upgrade of the window on a USB key, hover over all my personal files on the usb drive, and reinstall Vista from the Dell partition, which I did. Then, I updated all the stuff with the Advisor to upgrade of windows, is gone in Windows 7 upgrade file I moved it to the USB and realized that this point in time, I was an asshole. What a breakthrough!  OK, now how to restart the upgrade process. I paid the money, done the downloads, message, so my hands, discussed and done all the other stuff I've done since the upgrade of Windows 3.1 (each time). Now what...

    First I would contact the people who sold you download and see if they will send again free of charge - explain the problem.  I guess you still have the product key, they have sent you that shouldn't be a problem (it will work with any download the same version of Windows7).

    Then run Windows7 Upgrade Advisor to see if your system can handle Windows7 or if she need for software or material removed or updgraded: http://www.microsoft.com/windows/windows-7/get/upgrade-advisor.aspx.  Follow the instructions he gives as a result of the program (in fact, you should do this first - then you can deal with the download).

    After that, you need to further questions in the Windows7 Forums: http://social.answers.microsoft.com/Forums/en-US/w7install/threads where people who specialize in the installation and upgrade to Windows7 will be more than happy to help you in the process.  This is a forum for Vista, and you need to talk to experts in Windows7.

    I hope this helps.

  • CS3 - adjustment of the left and right channels of an Audio track separately

    I think it's a very stupid question.  I know how do in Avid and FCP, but for the life of me can not understand at first.  I cut a clip and laid it on the timeline.  Now I would like to adjust the audio levels of the clip independently, but there is that one line, passing through the audio clip, and it adjusts the L and R channels at the same time.  Nowhere, not even in the track properties, can I select only the L channel or R channel alone and make this channel upwards or downwards a little without affecting the other.  L and R are grayed out and not selectable.  The properties of the show clip it is stereo, the project settings are stereo, and I was not able to find any info on this problem in the forums here or in the help tool.  Except for something 2 I fell that said that we must go in the settings of the Master Clip and create Mono 2-track stereo channels until you place it on the timeline, but it would be crazy to have to do this for each stereo clip you import ever!  And that makes no sense - "mono" means 2 channels are the same, how can you have two channels "mono"?  What would be the purpose, you only need a "Mono" channel to go to your 2 speakers.  And I don't mean each mono channel to do in any case, I want it to go to the left and R only go towards the right side channel L!  Maybe they use bad word "mono"?  Or maybe I'm a fool and quite simply do not get something (most likely).

    In any case, I'm really confused here, especially because I can't believe that you go through all these steps for each unique stereo clip you work one day with... I must be missing something really simple, right?

    IN SUMMARY:

    I capture a stereo clip HDV

    I have load to the Source window

    I got a point in and an out-point

    I insert my clip on the timeline

    I noticed the channel audio left is too high and the right audio channel is too low

    How to lower the left channel and raise the right channel?

    Stupid question, I know.

    In Avid or FCP you go to audio level "line through the center of each channel and adjust at your leisure

  • Fibre Channel frames - UCS

    I was wondering if it really is possible to have the Fibre Channel frames running on a UCS?

    I read these two articles that provide some great information on the implementation of the Fiber Channel Jumbo and Jumbo frames:

    http://datacenteroverlords.com/2013/04/01/Jumbo-FC-frames/
    http://www.ccierants.com/2013/10/CCIE-DC-definitive-Jumbo-frames.html

    Everything in the SAN I'm administration has the ability to set the MTU value until 9036 except for the UCS. For example on NetApp train I can set the MTU by interface on the Cisco MDS I can set the MTU by vsan. However in the UCS Manager when I go to class of service of system quality, the option to set the MTU of Fibre Channel value is grayed out and it doesn't look like there is in any case override the preset frame size. I can set the MTU of the best Effort however my understanding is traffic Fibre Channel in the UCS will use the class system of Fibre Channel.

    Also I noticed that I can set the maximum size of the data on the vHBA field in the UCS Manager but my understanding is the maximum that can be up to 2048.

  • measure with the two channels of the virtual bench simultaneously in labview, error 375903

    Hi, I am trying two measurements simultaneously using two channels of analog input of the virtual bench. I chose the channel MSO 1 and 2 for the measures but I get error 375903 returned evewry time say the requested resource is reserved. I'm not under any other software which should use the virtual bench. The error occurs when I'm initializing the session, even before a measurement was made. Can someone tell me how to call each channel so that I don't get this conflict of resource reservation?

    I have included the VI and a screenshot of the error.

    ASM takes only supported a session unique instrument and your VI uses two. To use both channels, delete the second session MSO and specify channels in the MSO configure Analog Channel.vi

    Hello, IPM.

    Yes, you can add an another MD3200 to your R610 server & get both to work.  As you run lack of space, you can also simply add a MD1200 if just needing space as the MD1200 is cheaper than a MD3200.  The MD1200 will connect via your MD3200 sas & can provide you with the additional disk space if that's what you're looking for.
