Question about several berries in a single storage pool

A couple of years ago, we bought a PS4100x and that it has set RAID6. We were happy with our performance, but we are running out of storage space. We have recently acquired a PS6000e and PS4000xv that we seek to add to the default storage pool and to give us more storage capacity. I was able to successfully join the PS4000xv swimming like a RAID10 (performance gain) and want to join the PS6000e swimming like a RAID6 (provision of capacity).

I've read several different positions on the problems of mixture of RAID levels and types of disk (SATA/SAS) and negatively impact SAN performance or downright causing failure of SAN. Furthermore, I continue to find mention of problems with the previous firmware. Unfortunately, I can't find anything current that will help me through this issue.

My goal is to have the following 3 tables of EqualLogic in the default storage pool:

  • PS4100x (10 k SAS) RAID6 (approx. 15 to)
  • (15 k SAS) PS4000xv RAID10 (approx. 3 to)
  • PS6000e (7.2 k SATA) RAID6 (approx. 11 TB)

Any help or advice would be much appreciated. Thank you!

Reference Dell Dustin,

You can mix both RAID and the types of players in the same pool.  That is supported.  Especially on current FW 7.1.5 and 8.0.2 just came out today in fact.

When there are several members in the same pool, the data is distributed across members, in proportion to their relative sizes.  If the 15K Member will have only a small amount of data compared to the others.

Often, when you buy a 15K member is for a specific purpose in mind.  Some of the benefits of faster spindle will be lost for more data on the volume will be on more/more members.

You can set preferences for volume to R10 to ask more than the volume go.  You can start with the 15K in its own pool.  Later, you can merge the pools.

If you are satisfied with your performance now and are not the intention of that greatly increases the load of I/O then you can keep them in the same pool and it will be much better overall performance.  Given that the members of the group are working together.

In addition, during a sustained peak load, the advanced performance load balancer will exchange blocks of one very busy at a less crowded.  This helps out even the load.

Kind regards

Don

  • Question about multiple accounts on a single Machine

    Hello

    I have a question about the ability of the creative cloud to be used with multiple users. If we have computers in a lab that are shared machines and each student must buy their own creative cloud for its use. How to set the connection and activation of the account of each student?

    I'm new to creative cloud as well as it has been my understanding as long as its operation...

    Although it is branded as cloud base, the software is downloaded and installed locally

    Students between their Code to activate the application they wish to use...

    This model works if the student is using the software on their own machines, but how does it work if several students with multiple accounts share the same computer?

    If we install the software on the machines for them, is it possible for students to simply enable and disable the software as they go or is this a model that simply does not work.

  • Questions about the implementation of clusters of storage and DTS on active cluster

    I have a few questions about the implementation of clusters of data store and SRS storage in VSphere 5.1.

    We have a data center with about 15 HP blades and a few servers non-lame.  The hosts are all either VSphere 5.0 or 5.1.  Our back-end storage is an EMC VNX 5700 with about 20 stores of data.  All the VMWare is managed by VCenter 5.1 running on a dedicated physical machine.

    Currently, each data store is used individually; No piles of data store are put in place.  When a new virtual machine is created, the administrator usually chooses the data with the most space store.  Periodically, we will go back and manually storage vMotion machines to balance the load.

    Recently, we have expanded the VNX storage, so we now have LUNS in different pools, with different levels of performance.

    What I would do is set up for the data store clusters, so that us when a virtual machine is created, the administrator must not know what data store is in which pool.  Also take advantage of the DRS storage so that the burden of storage will be "refine" himself a little.

    I know the setting up of a cluster of storage in a 'clean' environment is quite simple, but my concern is creation/conversion data warehouses existing in active production in the cluster, while they are used.

    If I access the screen "data warehouses and store data from clusters ', right-click on the data center and create a cluster, and then move the various data stores in the new cluster, will there be an interruption in the production running systems?

    I also wonder about activation of storage i/o control.  It is not currently enabled on data warehouses.  I know it's useful for the StorageDRS, but will be allowing any negative impact on the system?  If I turn on the warehouses of data, is there anything else I should do or set in addition to all that allows him?

    Finally, we are in the process of Site Recovery Manager configuration.  SRS has an impact on the configuration of the data clusters and DTS store?

    Thanks in advance for your comments.

    Hello

    Clusters of data and using DTS store doesn't impact RS even if you create a cluster of data store for storage of replicated data and another for everyone else, this way you machines virtual you want to replicate are not moved on warehouses of data that are not replicated , but will still have the ability to move if there is a conflict.

    Gregg

    With all due respect but SRM and DTS don't go together. SRM does not at all support the use of DTS. So if you are configuring SRM forget DTS for now.

    Reason for this is that SRM knows no DTS and VMs can be in flight when a failover should occur, and bad things can happen. Also, the protection breaks when a virtual computer is moved between data warehouses in a cluster data store.

    In short: don't go there.

  • A few questions about several issues around Satellite P10 (PSP16)

    Hi all

    First post! After about 3 months of no solution, I decided to pop in here. I recently acquired a Satellite P10-832 PSP16E.
    The laptop was in a bad state when I got it so I erased the HARD drive.
    The problem was that after that I reinstalled XP Pro top I could not Wifi works again. When I press FN and F8 nothing happens.
    I downloaded all kinds of things from the page of the driver on the toshiba site, but nothing seems to work.
    The same goes for the small buttons on the front (mode, play, pause, etc.)

    A pointer to the people one would appreciate it!

    Steve

    Hello

    The solution is very simple; You must install the correct drivers.

    The Toshiba page offers two different WLan drivers for this unit. Agere and Atheros Wlan driver.
    You must verify that the WiFi card has been installed and then install the correct driver.

    In addition you cannot use the FN keys because the right utility has not been installed!
    On the Toshiba driver page, you will find details for the unique software. You should check more information.

    You must E - Key and Easy Button applications.
    If you have installed SP2, then you need to check the information contained in Microsoft Windows XP SP2 update information that are placed on the page of Tosh too.

  • Question about several popular vm with the same kernel version

    So, I have been informed that ESX is smart enough for to run several virtual machines with the exact same kernel that it loads only one instance of the kernel in memory for all of them so that it saves space in RAM. This seems quite remarkable to me, and I'd like to see if VMWare has any white papers or other documents on this. I'd like to believe it's true, but it seems incredible to believe.

    Is this really how ESX functions? If I have 10 XP SP3 machines with the same level and exact same version of the kernel patch, VMWware won't really load only one instance of the core XP in RAM to separate the 10 machines? If he does that, how handles when 10 machines all want access to the same statement in kernel mode at the same time separate?

    Welcoem to the Forums - ESX will actually 10 instances of the core of the customer even if they are the same OS - but once loaded using Transparent Page Sharing the vmkernel (the o/s of the ESX Server) can recognize identical pages and store them a time-read only memory - if the virtual machine tries to write to that page a copy and writing is done - if this new page is another page in memory that one instance is maintained. This saves a TON of memory-

  • Question about Violation of policy related to storage.

    Good evening

    I used DBCA to create the database that I currently use. At the time of creation, I chose the OLTP model. DBCA created a database. Enterprise Manager now says there are 4 users in violation of the following policy:
    Policy Violation Details: Non-System Users with System Tablespace as Default Tablespace
    Users who violate the above policy are:
    APEX_030200
    OWBSYS_AUDIT
    OWBSYS
    APPQOSSYS
    
    The above users are using the SYSAUX tablespace.
    Because the database was created from a template provided by Oracle (thru DBCA) I would have thought that all users, that she created using the appropriate default tablespaces.

    Is: should I redirect those users to a different default tablespace as the USERS tablespace? I'm afraid that if I do this, so that I can fix the violation of policy, I can do something that is not quite right, (after all, this configuration came from Oracle itself, I think that they know best).

    Thank you for your help,

    John.

    Published by: oracle0282 on December 15, 2010 03:18

    It depends on how you have set your alert.
    (1) If your alert is the type "event based ', then it goes off as soon as a new employee record is registered." Therefore, there is no way to group them.
    (2) If your alert is periodic (hourly for example), then you can write what is called a summary alert which will include information for all new employees created in an hour.

  • Several Questions about educational Versions of the software

    Well, I have several questions about teaching from Adobe software.  I will attend school in the near future (now I'm not enrolled in any type of school) and I see that Adobe has huge discounts on "educational software".

    What exactly is the difference between the "commercial" version of a program and an educational version?  Do you need some kind of student card to activate an educational version, or proof that you are in school, or something special like that?  I noticed people unopened sell educational versions on eBay and I heard there is no differences between the software, but this makes me wonder... why the price difference?

    Also, I intend on buying another Mac in the near future - probably for the school.  My second question is - with this software (education), is that I can put programs on my desktop and my laptop, or they won't work on one person on one computer?  I've heard people that serial numbers cannot be activated so many times.

    Last question.  My HDD recently crashed and I lost a good bit of things and had to re - install everything.  If this would never happen again, reinstall all Adobe programs on a hard drive nine?  Or I will meet the all 'serial numbers cannot be activated so many times?

    Very well.  I think about the fact.  Any input would be great.  Thank you.

    -Mike

    In terms of content, there normally is no real difference between the editions of the retail and educational/student. There may be some additional fonts or clip art in the commercial version, but this varies from one version to the other, and a product.

    You must qualify to buy an educational/student version. These qualifications are listed on the Adobe Web site. Normally, you must provide proof of reserve that sells licenses of software for you. You can not buy now for the reason that you will be a student in the future. You must have purchase student status.

    Unlike versions of retail, education/student Adobe versions software are not transferable. Sale of such software 'closed' on eBay must be regarded with suspicion. Adobe resellers do not offer software on eBay sales. The software is either stolen, used (but reconditioned), or pirated goods.

    Most of the Adobe software, including the Creative Suite software, can be activated at the same time on two computers owned and used by a single individual. second computer is usually a laptop, if first computer is a computer at home for students. For retail sales, usually first computer is a desktop computer and the second computer is a mobile computer or at home. Computers must not run the software at the same time. And No, two students may not share a single copy on two separate computers.

    The software can be turned on and off but after 20 or if these cycles, you will need to call Adobe and explain what is happening to get characters such cycles. If you are enabled on both systems and a hard drive or a computer turns off and you need to reinstall the software without having the possibility to disable the system blew, Adobe activation support group normally will be granted an additional activation, assuming that you do not have a record of abusing the privilege (as your hard drive breaks down once a month!).

  • Satellite U405D - several questions about overheating/disassembly/upgrading etc.

    Hello

    I have several questions about my old one by Satellite U405D-S2910

    1. when it works, after 2-3 hours (I run usually small programs such as safari, msn messenger and bsplayer) CPU gets 85 to 90 C (178-188). When I play age of Empires 2 (come on, its an old game) like 2-3 hours, it stops. What could be the possible reason? Furthermore, let me inform you about the climate of the city I live, 30 c temperature - humidity 25-35% (today).
    PS. CPU is AMD Turion 64 X 2 Dual-Core Mobile Processor. Model RM-74

    2. I'm going to disassemble my laptop in order to clean its cooling units (I think at the rate of overheating is this). It does seem like a desktop computer, so complicated. Ive seen a disassembly not to not (btw, its so difficult to spell dismantling :) I think Im going to do this. What are your suggestions on this subject? experiences could help me?

    3. my laptops is Ram 2x2gb PC5300 DDR2 667 MHz SDRAM memory, I want to replace RAM memory 2x2gb MACH XTREME DDR2 1333 MHZ CL9 NOTEBOOK. Should I do it? Fit my portable, stable work? any suggestions?
    PS. motherboard chipset AMD M780V

    4 - Finally :), should I use OS 64 - bit or 32-bit OS (win7)? what OS would you use if you were me?

    Thank you.

    Hey Buddy,

    1 + 2. I think everything is related to a higher internal temperature and you must clean your laptop using a jet of compressed air. That is why it s not necessary to remove, just blow softly and soon the air through the laptop. You can buy such compressed air which squirts of each computer store I think and it takes only 5 minutes.
    You can find a useful article about this here:

    3. in my opinion he should forget this update! The speed of the RAM is related to the FSB of the CPU and as much as I know about Satellite U405D it s 667 MHz so it s already the RAM faster than you can have. Save your money and buy a larger HARD drive or in the best case a SSD that can really improve the performance!

    4. in my view, the answer is clear: Windows 7 64-bit.
    Only a 64-bit OS supports full 4 GB of RAM. ;)

  • Re: Several questions about the recovery of the Satellite L750 features

    I have several questions about the recovery of Satellite L750 features available to it. Any help and answers would be useful.

    (1) when I started the laptop first, he asked me to create a recovery CD incase I need to reinstall the operating system. But he also said that he built in the recovery partition, so therefore, I have to make a recovery cd or not?

    (2) will be the recovery CD is exactly the same as the recovery on the system partition?

    (3) is the partion of CD or recovery includes all the integrated software pre-installed with the laptop?

    (4) also in the device manage management it shows watch partion recovery but it is empty, is it true?

    (5) in the second partition (drive D) system, he has a record with what looks like the recovery of files and folders. Is it safe to move/remove it?

    Hello

    I'll try to provide answers:
    1 - to ensure that everything works perfectly you don t need these discs, but if something goes wrong with the HARD drive you will not be able to do anything. When you have the recovery DVDs, you will still be able to install the recovery image and once again the factory settings. So my advice to you is: create these discs as soon as possible. Use only on DVD-R media and buy products of high quality (TDK or Verbatim).
    2 - Yes.
    3 - Yes.
    4 - No. Don t be confused with this.
    5. in a first time create restore DVD, and later you can do what you want. I put t know which files mean you but don t touch anything before that of the recovery disks to be created.

    In the past, many people have been experimenting with the structure of HARD drive and partitions and later was surprised when installing disk recovery HARD has been damaged. Don t make the same mistake.

    If you have any other questions you are welcome.

    We try to create a cloud to Eloqua connector. I read the CloudConnectorSampleGuide. I have a few questions about the expected data models and models of general implementation.

    Configuration of the connector of the cloud

    • The CC stores the identification information for each configured CC step Eloquya Eloqua?
      • What are the guidelines for the safe password storage? (I can't store the passwords as dirty one-way-hash that I need the password during execution.  The two-way hash gives an illusion of security but is not better than the plaintext).
    • When the CC is configured, where credentials should take place between the 1st and the 2nd screen? (i.e. as a hidden form field, session cookie cookie/etc.)
    • Eloqua warns the CC when a step is deleted?

    Cloud connector performance

    • What is the average number of steps configured Single that manages the CC?
    • Is it possible for a CC to have 1000 s and unique not configured to query?
    • What are the guidelines for scalability when the connector has to travel 1000 steps configured and survey? The CC requires a worker architecture to manage a large number of configured steps?
    • Are there best practices around the CC recovery hangs
      • For example: CC acquires the State waiting for members and moves to the current State. The CC blocks before the end of the stage. What is the approach suggested for

    recovery of the tasks in the current handling during recovery state? (assuming I have multiple instances of CC of the Eloqua poll). Is the connector of cloud supposed to maintain States of WIP to manage recovery correctly?

    Dmitry, once again, it is entirely to the developer.  When you add contacts to a stage, they will be processed in batches.  There is no limit to how much you add, and since they are left to step up to that dealt with by the connector, how long they sit depends on how long your connector takes to do its job.  Expectations, of course the faster you can deal with the best.
