Storage circuits and dot1q FCoE

We have live from Netapp for the FIs storage configured as storage fcoe ports, the FIs are in mode switch CF. I see the netapp in FIs flogied so the CF part looks good. On the side of netapp, we have a 10 g interface, e1a, with an IP on this subject.  We have another interface of 10g, e1b, with VLAN attached to it for this interface sends and receives frames dot1q tag.

Documentation seems to imply that the ip traffic does not at all on an FCOE storage port.  Yet, e1a works very well is not the case of e1b.

Question 1: My theory is the plain ethernet on e1a works well but the dot1q tagging on e1b, is what actually does work on the FCOE storage port.  Am I wrong?

Question 2: I think to operate dot1q that I need to change to change the type of port FI FCOE destocking at the port of the unit.  Is it as simple as chaning the port enter through the UCS Manager?  Who takes the FCOE link offline or anything?

Hi Tod,

Please make sure you have dot1q on Netapp and necessary FCoE VLAN are marked as native on FI and Netapp.

  • What to use for the storage media and backup?

    What material and components should I buy if I want to automatically back up our three Macs and watch downloaded (NOT continuous) movies on TV?

    Here is our current configuration:

    -Computers: (Mac Mini, MBP and Air)

    -Router/backup: via TimeCapsule (with our satellite Internet connected to the TimeCapsule via ethernet input)

    -Film/storage media: digital WD hard drive

    -J' have an Apple TV (3rd generation), but we do not use it... cannot

    We currently live in Kenya, where internet speed is not great... so we are unable to stream movies.  Average speed is about 100 Kbps.  Have about 2 TB of movies we watch currently on TV by plugging a portable hard disk into the DVD drive. I know enough that IT is dangerous (e.g. not much!), but need advice on options on a good way to potentially combine these requirements (storage backup and film). Potentially, something like a new RAID drive plugged into a router. RAID drive backups using Time Machine and then also has films on which can be wired (via the USB port? Ethernet to Apple TV 4th Gen to HDMI to TV?) TV to watch movies. Not sure if I need something like Plex media server or something to do, however.

    Thanks much for any help!

    I suggest that you consider a dedicated NAS device. An example would be the Synology DS416.

  • WinSxS swallow all my server storage space and fill C:Drives causing unstable Windows

    Hey there, I got a small cut of data center where we have virtualized 10.  Which most is Server 2008 standard with 4 x x64Bit version.

    I thought about creating a 75GB C partition would be more than enough space.  After about 9 months of use of torque with a 64 bit OS and Exchange 2010, I was up to 5 GB space on my C drive.  Fortunately, I had a load of spare to park my Exchange .edb files to remedy the problem of the lack of storage SAN.

    What MS is going to deal with this problem.  I'm lucky, I can just use extra storage space and make a difference.  What of those who pay for hosted solutions / storage.  This eventually cost them much more they may have planned to even if they copy actually that much data on the server.

    Surely MS will come out as its eems to be a cleaning tool or a patch to stop this issue more and more out of control.  Nobody seems to have a decent solution for this.  Woe to anyone brave enough to just go and delete files to free up space.

    Any ideas or advice greatly appreciated.

    Looking forward to hear from you.

  • How to configure and use the local storage dirve and usb

    My company bought a server DMM cisco as well as 10 players of 4310 g dmp.  I tried to work on mine here to get it all working.  Let me expose what we would do first before to get into the details.

    The cental DMM will it play any content and be used to create and manage the content here at company wehre I am.  However my boss wants to send dmp individual players (4310 g) out to our factories across the country.  He wants me to be able to creat content or allow a person managing the exact address to edit the content and then push the content from the server DMM to corporate local DPM record either on local storage or attached thumb order.  I guess my questions on what are the following.

    (1) is it necessary to push the content locally for playback?  Willingness to play the content of our dmm on the wan to do lots of traffic?  Presentations could be as simple as a welcome page based presentation playing images video and flash.

    (2) based on local content would be a wise decision I'll have to see exactly how this is done poorly.  In the settings of the dmp, I see the setting of local storage and turned it on and set to read/write.  In regard to the command of thumb gose exactly how I implement that so that DPM can see?  I plug to the back of the drive, and it seems that it is active but the management console of the player I don't see anyway to actaully see if she knows the USB.

    (3) how will push the content for local storage and control of the DMM thumb?  It looks like I can send things to the storage internal if package transfer and or advanced/DPM deployment tasks or server file.  What exactly is the difference between these two?

    (4) Lastly how I actually play the local content of the dmp?  Can I set this up on a schedule of the dmm just like I would if he played the local dmm?

    I searched through the documentation, but I have not found any good docs who are clear to actually how to do these things.  So, any help would be appreciated.

    Thanks in advance.

    Hi Glen,

    Here are the answers to your questions

    1) is it nessesary to push the content locally for playback?  Will  playing content from our dmm over the wan be to much traffic?   Presentations could be as simple as a basic welcome page to a  presentation playing video and flash images.

    It is not required to push the content locally, you can also play the DMM directly. The main advantage of playing on the spot, is that you can transfer the videos several hours or days before the presentation begins to be played if you deploy content off hours and then, when he's ready to start playing the new presentation.

    If you play directly the content of the DMM, the content will be transferred at the time of the DMP starts playback. This may fail if the WAN link is saturated at that time here.

    2) If pushing the content local would be a wise decision I am having  difficulty seeing exactly how this is done.  In the dmp settings I see  the local storage setting and have it turned on and set to read/write.   As far as the thumb drive gose how exactly to I set that up so the dmp  can see it?  I plug it in the back of the player and it looks like it's  active but from the management console of the player I do not see any  way to actaully see if it knows about the usb thumb drive.

    You don't need to do anything to enable USB storage, simply plug it in. To confirm that the DMP is able to see it properly, the simplest way is to connect to the DPM via FTP and confirm that he has a «usb_2» directory This "usb_2" directory, where is the USB drive is mapped.

    3) how will I push the content to the local storage and the thumb drive  from the DMM?  It looks like I can send things to the internal storage  though the advanced tasks/deployment package and or file transfer to DMP  or server.  What exactly is the differnce between these two?

    The task of "File transfer" will just do this, transfer a file to the DMP. The deployment package is smarter and will transfer all the contents of a presentation and organize them in a structure that can be used to read the content locally. You should always use the deployment package.

    4) finally how will I actually play the content from the local dmp?  Can  I set this up on a schedual from the dmm just like I would if it was  playing from the local dmm?

    Yes, she may be scheduled as any other presentation.

    I suggest you have a look at the link below. He explains the steps required to configure the deployment package and read the content deployed with it.

  • How implement storage files and save emails in the application Mail in Windows 8

    Know Windows Live Mail which allows me to create storage locations and drag emails to them for future use, but cannot see how to proceed with the application Mail in Windows 8.

    I thought about it.  I decided to include 4 emails from different vendors in my Mail in Windows 8 application and realized that they all had different folder list.  Each folder in the application list was exactly the same as it has been implemented in my original email with the vendor account. for example, gmail, Hotmail, etc.

    I connected to each of my email on the suppliers Web site accounts and created new folders here.  When I went back to the application of Mail Windows 8 all my new files now posted.

    The App is just to import what you have already set up.  You cannot create folders in the application itself.

  • Please explain SVmotion (Storage Vmotion) and DRS for storage in simple words

    Friends,

    I little confusing... could you please contact Storage vmotion and DRS for storage in simple words and the important points to remember in this regard...

    Kind regards

    Sirot

    9884106697

    Storage DRS is a feature that you allow warehouses of data aggregated on a single object (cluster) and recommend the implementation of disks in virtual machine based on the performance of the store of data and the available space on the data store.

    The DRS storage uses Storage vMotion to migrate virtual (online) computers from a data store to another to balance data store performance and space.

    You can use Storage vMotion without storage DRS too, moving virtual machine between clusters of DRS storage and warehouses of data even from the local level to the data store shared.

  • Many storage spaces and data for each quarter of the year files

    Hello

    I am junior DBA and I have a question about tablespace partitioning or data file sharing.

    I have a database of 10g in many storage spaces, for example:

    KER_DATA_2009_Q1

    KER_DATA_2009_Q2

    KER_DATA_2009_Q3

    KER_DATA_2009_Q4

    KER_INDX_2009_Q1

    KER_INDX_2009_Q2

    KER_INDX_2009_Q3

    KER_INDX_2009_Q4

    There is also a data file for each tablespace that is mentioned.

    But for this year 2013, only two big storage space I can get one and data KER_DATA, KER_INDX files.

    All tables and indexes in the whole database are KER_DATA, KER_INDX, tablespaces.

    I don't know any cut in two storage spaces and means of data files. Is this something like tablespace partitioning? This can be done automatically or someone needed to do it manually on the end of each quarter?

    This should be done to improve performance, several small files data instead a large?

    Can some admin explain this to me?

    The reason for this separation of database/tablespace was partitioning. There are a lot of tables partitioned by date column, and there are partitions for each quarter of the year. There are tablespace with a data file for each quarter (partition).

  • Sizing the storage SAN and RAM

    Hello

    I intend to install a VView infrstaructure into our existing environment VI. We currently hold 21 ESX host and we intend to use 4 of this virtual host ESX to run jobs for a call center.

    We'd start with 140 thinclients (Wyse or SunRay) and I begin to get an idea of the minimum requirements of storage I need. I would use the technology of cloning related.

    My figure is really simple:

    140 posts Vista running applications office and IE only.

    Our ESX hosts are HP Proliant BL460c blade with two quad core 2.66 Ghz proc, they currently have 16 GB of RAM installed.

    Is it realistic to predict a simple requirements as follows:

    RAM: 140 x 512 MB RAM: 70 GB of RAM spread over three ESX

    SAN: 140 x 15 GB = 2.1 to

    Agreed!

    Less Ram, fewer resources, less use of the drive, better compatibility...

    We keep round 200 vm per lun for our VDI, but this depends on how you have your set up storage space and the table itself (if it is capable of it).

  • USB disabled after the update of the Sierra (a short circuit and a work)

    Hi, when I bought my mbp 13 inches mid2012 (used, not new) I noticed that a USB port did not work. In the Yosemite sometimes I noticed that a USB port consumed too much energy and have been disabled. (I think because the usb port has been short-circuited. Year when it was time to update the mbp to El Capitan I had a few panic the kernel and the newspaper was shown as the last driver loaded the USB driver, so I kept the mbp with Yosemite. A few days ago, I updated for Sierra but only usb which used to work stopped working. It has enabled and turned on but Finder and disk utility does not see the drive. In an Apple dealer they said that could be established relationships with some oxide and next week will take it and see what the problem is.

  • Intel Rapid Storage Technology and envy 700-330qe

    I'm a new 700-330qe CTO. Include updates of driver on the hp support is for technology Intel Rapid Storage Technology. I first thought it was a driver of hardware like my former lodge (he had a card Intel Matrix Storage Manager who managed the RAID 0, 1 or 0 + 1).  Now I see that it is a software emulation of RAID. Nowhere in the documentation supplied with the machine is there any mention of the capacity of this machine to run any form of RAID. I have two HARD drives, and they are the same size, so, theoretically, that I could run RAID 0 or 1, if I so wish, but is nowhere mention of a way to do it. I see the BIOS must be configured to run RAID.

    I'm NO expert. I was wondering where I can find more on how to set up a RAID machine. So far, I still didn't look in the BIOS (not even sure how to do this, while some of you think I'm stupid). I guess I get a little twisted shape when a product has features that should be out in the open but seem to be hidden. Any help would be appreciated to reallyhl.

    JoBla, welcome to the forum.

    It is becoming increasingly difficult to ensure that the latest components will work in an old computer.  Your computer is almost 3 years old.  My suggestion is to choose the SSD and the video card you want to buy and contact the Technical Support of the manufacturer to determine if it will work with your computer.  They are the experts on their products.  This will save you the possibility to pay for the return of one of them.  That's what I did and it works fine.

    I can recommend a PSU 600W (PSU), however.  I love Corsair products.  Here is a very good power supply.  Read the reviews to see what users have to say about it.  There is a modular version of it, too.  The modular power supply is good for medium-sized cases.  It allows you to use only the cables that are absolutely necessary.  Which makes for airflow and better cable management.

  • Mac Pro, Flash Storage, Dropbox, and external storage Solutions

    I am considering a Mac Pro to a computer in the enterprise. I hope someone can give an overview and experience with the dilemma of using a computer with a small amount of storage on board, dropbox and external storage devices.

    Background:

    Mac Pro storage on board - The Mac Pro has limited onboard storage. It comes with a 256 k flash memory and is apparently expandable to 512 or 1 TB. But, I can not even know where to buy the storage upgrade. For some reason, it seems even to be available for purchase on Apple's site. I can't understand how much it costs or where to buy it. I found a link showing how to install it, but that's all.

    Dropbox - Dropbox is an important part of the company, or at least my business. The tricky thing is that Dropbox doesn't seem to work very well if this does not work on an operating system main hard drive. I tried once on a Mac Mini Server, and it does not work well. I read on the Dropbox site that it doesn't work so well. The small amount of storage on board available for the Mac Pro means that it is necessary to use an external drive, which is fine with me, with the exception of the question of Dropbox. Is anyone here from an experience with this problem.

    External storage - the question here is as stated above. How to get an external drive on a Mac Pro, the operating system is not installed on, to work properly. I know that most people could read this and suggest to go to the website of Dropbox support for more information. I was able to do that and have nothing. Looking for Mac people who could potentially experience.

    In short, how the hell you upgrade Mac Pro flash storage... where do you get, and how much it costs?  And second, anyone experience using Dropbox on a Mac Pro, where the Dropbox folder is not located on the operating system drive.

    Thanks for any help that can be provided.

    -Apple does not sell to replace internal storage.

    -You can often find storage on eBay and other places. However, isn't that all in storage for some MacBook Pro model will work in the Mac Pro is much slower. One way to tell is that the MacBook you do not have a heatsink on them while the Mac Pro.

    -You can buy external storage Thunderbolt. To access only a disc both an external case USB 3/disc is about as fast as Thunderbolt. Can get pregnant using the portable 2 1/2 standard SSD
