51. DS4243
 2nd Generation SAS Product
 Now the majority of shipping storage products
 Field proven to be NetApp’s most reliable product
 Increased Density (over DS14)
 24x3.5‖ drives in 4 rack U offers better shelf density than DS14 (avg. 6 drives/U for DS4243 vs. 4.6 drives/U for
DS14)
 Flexible Storage Options
 Same enclosure is used for SATA, SAS, and SSD drives
 SAS and SATA shelves can be intermixed in the same stack
 Alternate Control Path
 NetApp® out-of-band resiliency feature that enables proactive self-recovery in Data ONTAP®

52. DS2246
 3rd Generation SAS Product
 Increased Density
 24x2.5‖ 10k RPM drives in 2 rack U at same capacity points (450GB, 600GB) offers double the GB/rack U vs.
DS4243*
 900GB 2.5‖ 10k rpm SAS drive expected end of CY11, early CY12
 Increased IOPs/rack U
 Greater Bandwidth
 6Gb SAS 2.0 offers ~24Gb (6Gbx4) combined bandwidth per wide port
 Improved Power Consumption
 Power consumption per GB reduced by approximately 30-50%*
 What‘s Unchanged
 Same underlying architecture and FW base as DS4243
 All existing DS4243 features/functionality
 6Gb/sec when using X2065 (quad-port SAS HBA), X2067 (FAS6200 quad-port SAS), and FAS3200 embedded
SAS ports, otherwise 3Gb/sec (auto-negotiated) when using X2062 (FAS2050) or FAS2040
*compared to DS4243 with 3.5” 15k RPM SAS HDD

53. Highly Efficient RAID Protection

 Superior fault tolerance
 Recover from simultaneous failure of 2 drives
 RAID 6 protection with no performance penalty

® ®
 Double disk failure is a  Protects against double disk
mathematical certainty failure
 RAID 5 (single parity disk)  High performance and
 Insufficient protection fast rebuild
 RAID 10 (mirrored copy)  Same protection and
performance as RAID 10
 Double the cost at half the cost

55. NetApp Snapshot Technology
Instant zero-space copy
 NetApp WAFL® writes all data to available
free space without writing over previous data
 Creating a Snapshot™ copy involves merely
retaining pointers to original data blocks
 Performance impact is near zero because no
Snapshot™
Copies
additional disk operations are required
beyond normal write behavior
 Space is efficient because only new data
written takes up incremental space on disk
NetApp® Storage System
 Scheduled or manual, up to 254 snapshots
per volume
 Readily accessible via a ‗special‘ subdirectory

57. Flash Cache (PAM II)
2nd Generation Intelligent Caching Modules
Product Details
• Functions as an intelligent read cache for data and metadata
• Automatically put your active data where access can be fast
• Works with ALL controllers and ALL protocols
• Deduplication applies to PAM caches
• All storage behind the controller is subject to caching
• Get more I/O throughput without adding high-performance disk drives
to a disk-bound storage system
• Fits into PCI Express expansion slots
• Enterprise class SLC NAND flash memory
• Available in 256GB, 512GB and 1TB sizes, up to 8TB
• You can set Quality of Service priorities for PAM caches with
FlexShare®
• File services, OLTP, VMware®, Citrix, and Hyper-V™
• Microsoft® Exchange and SharePoint®
• Engineering and SW development

58. Where to Use Flash Cache
Effective with Random Read Workloads
