Wat is een SAN ?
1) Gecentraliseerde opslag op basis van een extern
schijvencabinet voor verschillende typen servers
« alles in één doos »
gecentraliseerd beheer
hoge schaalbaarheid door veel schijfruimte
hogere hardware redundantie en databeveiligingsfuncties : RAID,
spare disks
2) Speciaal storage netwerk
Fibre-Channel
grote afstand (optische kabels )
hoge bandbreedte (4Gb)
iSCSI ethernet
direct toepasbaar en flexibel
lage TCO en infrastructuurkosten
3
Voordelen van gecentraliseerde opslag
•
Flexibel en eenvoudig toewijzen
van capaciteit
•
Gemiddelde benutting in een
DAS-omgeving is < 50% (SAN = 85%)
•
Schijf en tape in hetzelfde opslag netwerk (50-75% minder tape drives)
•
Minder LAN-verkeer
•
Gecentraliseerd beheer
•
Beheer met minder mensen
(efficiency stijgt met factor 10)
•
Opslag, switches en tape toevoegen zonder applicaties stop te zetten
•
Zo veel redundantie als gewenst

iSCSI Storage
•
iSCSI staat voor Internet SCSI (Small Computer System Interface). Dit
is een op het Internet Protocol (IP) gebaseerde standaard voor IP
netwerken. Deze technologie is een versmelting van twee technieken
die zich in de industrie bewezen hebben. Het gaat om de technologie
die ontwikkeld is voor communicatie (ip netwerken) en de technologie
bedoeld voor dataopslag , SCSI opslag.
Door deze te combineren werd het mogelijk zowel de data als de
dataopslagcommando's over ip-netwerken te versturen.
•
Een netwerk protocol voor storage netwerken
•
Gebruikt de standaard ethernet tcp/ip netwerktechnologie eb hardware
5
Fibre Channel SAN
•
Fibre Channels work on a single popular storage networking protocol
that offer compatibility to all common storage and database servers.
•
Fibre Channels use the FCP protocol ( Fibre Channel Protocol) which
is simply a serial bus SCSI protocol.
•
This FCP (Fiber Channel protocol) works really well in networks with a
high bandwidth requirement.
•
Fibre Channel is een protocol dat voornamelijk wordt gebruik om data
binnen storage netwerken te transporteren. Vaak wordt Fibre Channel
geassocieerd met alleen glasverbindingen, maar het protocol kan
zowel over glas als koperverbindingen worden gebruikt.

iSCSI voordelen door Eenvoud
Geen noodzaak meer om te investeren in FC technologie of FC
kennis
Ethernet is bekende technologie
Ethernet heeft een lagere TCO en infrastructuur
Geen noodzaak meer om te investeren in FC technolog
of FC kosten
Geen FC HBAs meer nodig, optionele iSCSI ethernet kaarten voor
hogere prestaties

Thin Provisioning:
Better Storage Utilization
•
Create a virtual volume to match
size of data provisioning request
•
Allocate a smaller amount of
actual physical disk space
•
Additional physical space
allocated automatically as needed
•
Reduces wasteful over
provisioning of storage
•
Saves disk space and power
consumption

WAN Optimized Data Replication
•
•
Applications and file
systems write far more
data to disk than actual
changes
NSS scans the changes at
a 512 byte level and
replicates only the changed
data
- Avoids constant resending of duplicate
data
512
byte
= empty disk sector
= data written by application or file system
= sector with actual data change
512
byte
Disk sectors
A typical 8k write of
data. Many systems
send all 8k or more.
CDP sends only the
35
truly changed sectors.
