(MPIO multipathing software, etc.) in the conﬁguration. Conﬁgure targets using portals

on each controller.

• Create fault-tolerant logical storage units—Create LUNs using fault-tolerant RAID levels and

striping methods.

• When assigning system names and aliases, use only the following characters:

• Uppercase alpha characters (A-Z)

• Lowercase alpha characters (a-z)

•Numericcharacters(0-9)

• Special characters (! # = ( ) ‘ ; , . and space)

• When accessing the SMU, expand the browser to full screen or a minimum size of 1024 x 768

pixels. Other settings may distort the display or cause items to not display.

• When planning and conﬁguring logical drives:

• Optimize performance and redundancy by striping the drives in the array across separate

storage enclosures on different SCSI buses, especially in mirrored environments using

RAID 1+0.

• Set the drive rebuild priority to high to minimize exposure during a drive failure.

• Customize the RAID level and striping method to the type of data that will be stored on the

logical drive.

NOTE:

Depending on the number of physical hard drives included in a storage unit, the SMU may suggest

RAID 6 (ADG) as the default RAID level, which offers a high level of fault tolerance and usable disk

capacity, but at a signiﬁcant cost to I/O performance. For comparable fault tolerance but higher

performance, consider using RAID 1+0 when fault tolerance is desired and performance is more

important than usable capacity. Reserve RAID 6 (ADG) for situations when fault tolerance is desired,

but usable capacity is more important than performance.

• After conﬁguring the storage, remember to:

• Verify that each initiator has been granted access to the target.

• Control access to the storage through the use of VLANs, CHAP authentication, and ACLs.

• Draw physical and logical diagrams of your network:

• Hardware/device diagram—Physical layout of the entire network, including device names

and cabling.

• Storage diagram—Hard drive and storage system conﬁguration, including RAID levels.

• Path/Accessibility diagram—Access information, including which devices are allowed to

communicate with each other.
