Frequently Asked Questions - ESDS 4016 Infortrend
How do I set up the Infortrend ESDS 4016?
Install the unit in a 19-inch rack, connect power and host cables (SAS/Fibre Channel/iSCSI). Access the web GUI via the default IP to configure RAID groups and volumes. Refer to the quick start guide for initial setup.
What RAID levels are supported?
The ESDS 4016 supports RAID 0, 1, 5, 6, 10, 50, and 60. Choose based on your need for performance, capacity, or redundancy.
How to replace a failed hard drive?
Identify the failed drive via the front panel LED indicator or management software. With the system powered on, remove the drive tray, insert a new drive of the same type, and ensure it is recognized. The RAID will automatically rebuild if configured properly.
Can I mix different drive sizes or speeds?
Yes, mixing is possible but performance may be limited to the slowest drive and capacity to the smallest in a RAID group. For optimal performance, use identical drives.
How to connect the ESDS 4016 to a host server?
Use a SAS cable (or Fibre Channel/iSCSI) from the host HBA to the controller ports. Ensure the correct drivers are installed. For iSCSI, configure the IP address on both sides.
How to update firmware on the ESDS 4016?
Download the latest firmware from the Infortrend support site. Upload it via the web GUI under System Maintenance. The system will reboot after installation. Backup configuration before updating.
What is the maximum storage capacity?
With 16 bays and current hard drives (up to 20TB each), the maximum raw capacity is 320 TB. Using SSDs can achieve similar capacity with higher performance.
How to monitor system health?
Use the built-in web GUI or SNMP to monitor temperature, fan status, power supply, and drive health. Configure email alerts for critical events.
Is hot-swap supported for drives and power supplies?
Yes, both hard drives and power supply units are hot-swappable. Remove and replace them without powering down the system, provided the remaining components can support the load.
How to configure network settings for iSCSI?
Access the iSCSI configuration via the web GUI. Set the IP address, subnet mask, and gateway for each iSCSI port. Create targets and LUNs for host access.
