About 5340 Appliance compute node disk dr configurations

The Veritas 5340 Appliance compute node contains five 2 TB SAS hard disk drives. Each disk drive is accessible from the compute node's front panel. An embedded RAID controller on the compute node's mainboard configures four of the five disk drives into two mirrored RAID1 volumes.

The two RAID1 volumes are labeled Volume 0 and Volume 1. The disk drives that are located in slot 0 and slot 1 are configured as the RAID1, VOLUME0 device. These disk drives contain the appliance operating system, the operating system swap file, and the NetBackup application. You can hot-swap one of these disk drives at a time if a drive becomes problematic. However, you cannot operate the appliance if both disk drives are removed.

The disk drives in slot 2 and slot 3 are configured as the RAID1, VOLUME1 device. Volume 1 contains the log files. As with the RAID1, VOLUME0 device, you can hot-swap one disk drive at a time if a drive becomes problematic. However, you cannot operate the appliance if both drives are removed.

The appliance uses the disk drive that is located in slot 4 as a hot-spare disk. If a disk drive in either of the RAID volume experiences a hardware error, the appliance automatically initiates a RAID rebuild operation. During the rebuild operation, the appliance dynamically accesses the hot-spare disk from slot 4 and uses it to rebuild the RAID volume.

13	PCIe riser assembly 3 *Contains two half height PCIe slots.Note: PCIe riser assembly 2 and riser assembly 3 are riveted together. As a result, riser assembly 2 and riser assembly 3 are removed as one unit.

* The 5340 Appliance add-in cards are available in multiple configurations. Several configurations include at least one Fibre Channel host bus adapter card for VMware, optimized deduplication over Fibre Channel, or tape library connectivity.

In some configurations the Fibre Channel host bus adapter cards are installed into some of the PCIe slots. If the cards are installed in slots 5 and 6, the configuration supports Fibre Transport Media Server (FTMS) mode. Port 1 of each card is configured by default as Target, while port 2 is configured by default as Initiator. If you want, you can configure port 2 on both cards as Target, and you can configure port 1 on both cards as Initiator.

Note: Only configurations D and E support FTMS.

Note: You cannot bond copper 1 Gb Ethernet ports that are installed in the appliance chassis with PCIe-based 10 Gb Ethernet Fibre Channel ports.

Veritas appliances may include grounding studs in case your lab environment has such a requirement. The studs are located on the rear panel of the appliance. You can use standard grounding practices to connect grounding wires to the studs.

The rear panel of the Veritas 5340 Appliance contains three PCIe riser card assemblies. PCIe riser card assemblies 1 and 2 each support three standard PCIe cards, while PCIe riser card assembly 3 supports two low profile PCIe cards. The slots are labeled 1 to 8. Slots 1, 2, and 3 are located in PCIe riser card assembly 2. Slots 4, 5, and 6 are located in PCIe riser card assembly 1, while slots 7 and 8 are located in PCIe riser card assembly 3.

Figure 1-10 5340 Appliance rear panel riser assembly locations and PCIe slot number assignments

The 5340 Appliance supports multiple PCIe-based I/O configurations. The following table shows the standard I/O configurations that are available with a 5340 Appliance.

Note: A 5340 Appliance high availability (HA) configuration must use two identical 5340 compute nodes with regard to model number and hardware configuration.

For example, you can use two 5340 compute nodes with configuration D. However, you cannot use one 5340 Appliance compute node with configuration D and one 5340 Appliance compute node with configuration B.

This requirement applies to all of the I/O configurations for each model.

This chapter includes the following topics:

■ About Veritas 5340 Appliance storage shelves
■ About the 5U84 Primary Storage Shelf and 5U84 Expansion Storage Shelf rear components

About Veritas 5340 Appliance storage shelves

Three black server racks with red VERTAS heat sinks, no visible text or symbols on the racks themselves.

Veritas offers two external storage shelf models for the Veritas 5340 Appliance.

These include the:

■ Veritas 5U84 Primary Storage Shelf (required)
■ Veritas 5U84 Expansion Storage Shelf (optional)

Both of the 5U84 Storage Shelf chassis include a set of common internal core components, along with a set of plug-in modules.

The core components include:

■ Two sliding disk drawers that contain Disk Drive In Carrier (DDIC) modules
■ A front operations panel
■ A front bezel
- Mid-plane printed circuit boards (PCB) that interface with controllers on the 5U84 Primary Storage Shelf and the 5U84 Expansion Storage Shelf.

In addition to the core components, the storage shelves also incorporate the following plug-in modules:

■ Two 16Gb Fibre Channel RAID controller modules (5U84 Primary Storage Shel only)
■ Two Storage Bay Bridge 2.1-compliant Expansion I/O controller modules (5U84 Expansion Storage Shelf only)
■ Two power supply units (PSUs)
■ Five fan modules
■ Up to 84 Disk Drive In Carrier (DDIC) modules with drives installed
■ A rail kit for rack mounting

The 5U84 Primary Storage Shelf and the 5U84 Expansion Storage Shelf each use a 5U chassis. Each chassis contains two sliding disk drive drawers that are located in the front of the storage shelf. Each drawer holds 42 Disk Drive In Carrier (DDIC) modules. The DDIC modules are installed in the drive drawer slots, which hold a total of 84 disk drives. Each DDIC module holds SAS3, 7200 rpm hard disk drives, in either 4TB or 8TB capacities. The disk drives and the DDIC modules are hot-swappable and can be replaced on-site while the storage shelf is operational.

Note: Whether you use 4TB or 8TB disk drives in the storage shelves, each storage shelf drawer must be populated with disk drives of the same capacities.

In each storage shelf, two disk drives are used as global hot spares. Four of the disk drives provide storage space for a dedicated RAID 10 metadata volume group. When 4TB disk drives are used, the storage shelf provides 7.27TBs of metadata storage capacity. When 8TB disk drives are used, the storage shelf provides 15.75TBs of metadata storage capacity. The remaining disks are configured in a storage group that uses RAID 6 disk array technology. These disks are used for MSDP and AdvancedDisk data storage purposes. Depending on the storage configuration you purchase, the NetBackup 5340 Appliance storage system supports up to 1,920TBs of usable data storage space.

Note: RAID10 is also known as RAID 1+0. It combines disk mirroring and disk striping to protect data.

Available appliance storage options

The Veritas 5340 Appliance compute nodes do not contain internal disk space on which to store data. Instead, the 5340 Appliance uses the required Veritas 5U84 Primary Storage Shelf as the main data storage device. The 5U84 Primary Storage Shelf connects to the 5340 Appliance compute nodes and uses RAID 6 drive sets to protect the stored data.

Note: RAID 6 is also known as double-parity RAID. It uses two parity stripes on each disk to protect data. RAID 6 allows for two hard disk failures within the RAID disk array before any data is lost.

If additional data storage space is required, you can connect up to three Veritas 5U84 Expansion Storage Shelves to the existing 5U84 Primary Storage Shelf. The 5U84 Expansion Storage Shelves connect to the 5U84 Primary Storage Shelf using SAS3 data cables. After connecting the shelves, the disk drives in the 5U84 Expansion Storage Shelf use RAID 6 sets that are controlled by the 5U84 Primary Storage Shelf to protect the stored data.

Table 2-1 shows the available storage shelf storage capacities for the 5340 Appliance running NetBackup software using 4-TB and 8-TB disk capacities.

Note: Veritas does not support mixing 4TB and 8TB disk drives within a storage shelf.

* Flex 3340 Appliance software supports up to 916TBs of usable MSDP storage capacity when using one MSDP storage pool. When multiple MSDP storage pools are used, you can use the entire amount of usable storage capacit for MSDP storage if desired. The total amount of usable storage capacity depends on the number of storage shelves that are connected to the Flex compute node.

About the Veritas 5U84 Storage Shelf disk drive drawers

This section discusses the 5U84 Primary Storage Shelf and 5U84 Expansion Storage Shelf disk drive drawers and the components that comprise the drawers.

Disk drive drawers

Figure 2-3 5U84 Primary Storage Shelf/5U84 Expansion Storage Shelf disk drive drawer

3D rendering of a server rack with multiple drive bays and ventilation slots (no visible text or labels)

The 5U84 Primary Storage Shelf and the 5U84 Expansion Storage Shelf each use a 5U chassis. Each chassis contains two sliding drawers that are accessible from the front of the storage shelves. Each drawer holds 42 Disk Drive In Carrier (DDIC) modules. The DDIC modules are installed in each of the drive drawer slots, which can hold a total of 84 disk drives. Each DDIC module holds one 3.5" SAS3, 7200 rpm hard disk drive, in either 4-TB or 8-TB capacities. The disk drives and the DDI modules are hot-swappable and can be replaced on-site while the storage shelf is operational.

Disk drive slot numbering

Each disk drive drawer in a 5U84 storage shelf is divided into three compartments. The compartments contain the individual drive slots that hold the DDIC modules and the disk drives.

In the top drive drawer, the drive slots are numbered from left to right, beginning with the first compartment that is closest to the front panel. The drive slots in this compartment are numbered 0 to 13. The drive slots in the second compartment are in the middle of the drive drawer. These slots are numbered 14 to 27. The drive slots in third compartment are closest to the rear of the shelf. These slots are numbered 28 to 41.

In the bottom drive drawer, the drive slots are numbered from left to right, beginning with the first compartment that is closest to the front panel. The drive slots in this compartment are numbered 42 to 55. The drive slots in the second compartment are in the middle of the drive drawer. These slots are numbered 56 to 69. The drive slots in third compartment are closest to the rear of the shelf. These slots are numbered 70 to 83.

See Figure 2-4 on page 43.

Figure 2-4 Disk drive slot numbering

Disk Drive In Carrier (DDIC) modules

All storage shelf hard disk drives are housed in DDIC modules. Each disk drive drawer accepts a Disk Drive In Carrier (DDIC) module for each disk drive slot in the drawer. DDIC modules enable disk drives to be quickly inserted and removed without turning off the 5U84 storage shelves. In addition, each DDIC prevents mis-alignment and damage to the disk drive connectors during the disk drive insertion and removal process.

For troubleshooting purposes, DDIC modules provide one amber drive fault LED indicator per disk drive. The fault indicator enables you to easily identify a failed drive carrier in the drive drawer. You can see drive fault LED indicator when the disk drive drawer is open.

Disk Drive Drawer printed circuit board (PCB) assemb

Each disk drive drawer in a 5U84 storage shelf uses a printed circuit board (PCB) assembly to provide the electrical connectivity to the drawer's disk drives.

Along with providing the electrical connectivity to the disk drives, PCB assemblies also provide:

■ Mounting platforms for the drawer cabling system
■ Redundant power paths to each disk drive
■ Redundant 12Gb/s SAS signal paths to each disk drive
■ Provide technical feedback to the system when a drawer is opened or closed. PCB assemblies include the following components:
■ Three drawer Baseplane cards
■ One right side Drawer Sideplane card
■ One left side Drawer Sideplane card

Figure 2-7 Disk Drive Drawer PCB assembly

Table 2-4 Disk drive drawer PCB assembly components

	ItemLabel
	Drawer Sideplane card (left)A
	Drawer Sideplane card (right)B
	Baseplane cardC

Each PCB assembly contains two Drawer Sideplane cards. One Sideplane card mounts on the right side of the disk drawer, while the other card mounts on the left side of the drawer.

Drawer Sideplane cards provide power paths to the drawer Baseplanes and the DDICs and their installed disk drives. Sideplane cards also provide 12Gb/s SAS connections.

Sideplane cards are hot swappable and replaceable by service personnel while the storage shelf is running in a rack.

Note: Removing the Sideplane upper metal cover removes power to the Sideplane, which enables the faulty Sideplane to be hot-swapped.

Figure 2-8 Inside and outside views of a right side Sideplane card

Two 3D isometric views of a green printed circuit board with visible components and connectors (no text or symbols)

Three Drawer Baseplanes comprise each PCB assembly. Drawer Baseplanes provide a dual path for 12Gb/s SAS connectivity between the Drawer Sideplane cards and the DDICs. They also provide power to the DDICs from either the right or the left Drawer Sideplane cards.

The Drawer Baseplanes also provide four remote temperature sensing diodes that monitor disk drive temperatures within the disk drive drawers.

The RAID controllers provide RAID data protection technology for the data that is stored on the 5U84 Primary Storage Shelf disk drives. The RAID controllers also provide RAID data protection technology for the optional 5U84 Expansion Storage Shelves that you connect to the 5U84 Primary Storage Shelf.

Fiber optic cables connect the 5340 Appliance compute nodes to the 5U84 Primary Storage Shelf through the storage shelf's RAID controllers.

Five high performance fan modules connect to the storage shelf's midplane connector through the middle slots. Each fan module contains two contra-rotating high performance fans, along with separate power and control circuits for each internal fan.

Two redundant Power Supply Units (PSUs) are located in slots beneath the fan modules.

To operate, the 5U84 Primary Storage Shelf must have at least one functioning RAID Controller, one functioning power supply unit, and four functioning fan modules.

5U84 Expansion Storage Shelf

The 5U84 Expansion Storage Shelf uses two Expansion I/O modules, which are located in the top two slots of the back panel. The Expansion I/O modules provide SAS3 I/O data transfers between the 5U84 Primary Storage Shelf and the 5U84 Expansion Storage Shelf. The Expansion I/O modules also provide I/O data transfers between the first 5U84 Expansion Storage Shelf and up to two additional 5U84 Expansion Storage Shelves.

SAS3 cables connect the 5U84 Expansion Storage Shelf to the 5U84 Primary Storage Shelf through the 5U84 Expansion Storage Shelf's Expansion I/O modules. SAS3 cables are also used to daisy chain up to two additional 5U84 Expansion Storage Shelves to the first 5U84 Expansion Storage Shelf.

Five high performance fan modules connect to the storage shelf's midplane connector through the middle slots. Each fan module contains two contra-rotating, high performance fans, along with separate power and control circuits for each internal fan. The device must have at least one functioning RAID Controller, one functioning power supply module, and one functioning fan module.

Two redundant Power Supply Units (PSUs) are located in slots beneath the fan modules.

To operate, the 5U84 Expansion Storage Shelf must have at least one functioning Expansion I/O module, one functioning PSU, and four functioning fan modules.

See "Veritas 5U84 Expansion Storage Shelf Expansion I/O modules" on page 60.

Veritas 5U84 Primary Storage Shelf RAID Controllers

The Veritas 5U84 Primary Storage Shelf uses dual, hot swappable Fibre Channel RAID controllers. These controllers create and manage the 5U84 Primary Storage Shelf disk drive RAID sets that contain backed up data. They also create and manage the RAID sets on 5U84 Expansion Storage Shelves when those are attached to the 5U84 Primary Storage Shelf.

The Fibre Channel RAID controllers run RAID levels 6 and 10 on the storage shelf. RAID 10 is also referred to as RAID 1+0. RAID 6 offers the highest level of data

protection. It allows simultaneous write operations, while also allocating two sets of parity data across the drives that comprise the RAID 6 array.

RAID 10 uses mirroring and striping technology without the use of parity. It enables the creation of large high performance disk groups for data storage purposes, while also providing the fault tolerance protection that mirroring offers. RAID 10 is used to protect the metadata that is stored on the storage shelves.

The Fibre Channel RAID controllers also provide one SAS3 port. The SAS3 port enables data to flow at SAS3 data transfer rates between the 5U84 Primary Storage Shelf and the first optional 5U84 Expansion Storage Shelf.
