Current Storage Issues

MTI RAID Arrays – Operations



Starting to age – had planned to start replacing MTI
with more current technology
Poor tools for performance monitoring
JBOD (Just a Bunch of Disks) - Development


3/14/2003
Much slower than RAID
No fault tolerance

Current Server Issues

Sparc Servers




3/14/2003
Highly reliable
Lack redundant hardware components
Unable to perform throughput tests on development
systems since they are undersized compared to the
operational servers.
No good performance monitoring tools

8 CPUs – EMC
Should provide significantly improved performance
• Doubles the number of CPUs
• Significantly more memory
• Faster RAID
Anticipate extra performance will be needed to handle:
• New Instruments
• Object catalogs
• New MAST catalogs

Same Performance across domains
EMC storage easier to configure for both System
Administrators and Database Administrators
Better performance monitoring tools
EMC switch will allow failover of disks to an alternate
domain

New Storage Benefits

EMC allows for new database backup strategies


Timefinder Snapshot  Backup to Centralized tape
system
May facilitate snapshot refreshes of database to
development/test server

New Server Benefits

Consolidation of Database servers




Simplifies management for both SAs and DBAs
Redundant hardware systems should reduce
downtime
Better performance monitoring tools
Domains can be reconfigured to provide extra
resources on demand

Need 64 bit Sybase to utilize >4GB Memory
• ST-ECF had experienced problems with initial release of
64 bit Sybase under v12.0
• They report having no problems with Sybase v12.5
• We will run full regression test with this version.

Will set up initial configuration of Dev/Test Server using database
configuration parameters that are similar to existing servers.
• This will allow us to duplicate current performance
requirements.
We then plan to test the benefit of large amounts of memory within
the database server and to further tune configuration parameters.
• This tuning work will not impact the rollout of the other servers,
since they can be brought on-line with the initial tuning
configuration.

Database Contingency Plans

Original hardware will be kept available should it
be necessary to roll back


No trade in required for this equipment
Roll back would consist of a simple database load
onto the original server

3/14/2003
Roll back will be tested.
