Chapter 1. New and Changed Information for this Release

- New and Changed Information for this Release

New and Changed Information for this Release

No significant changes were made to this guide for the current release.

Chapter 2. Overview

This chapter contains the following sections:

- About EMC Isilon

About EMC Isilon

The EMC Isilon storage system consists of three or more nodes that make a cluster. Each node is a self-contained, rack-mountable device that contains industry standard hardware, such as disk drives, CPU, memory, and network interfaces. Each EMS Isilon system is integrated with the OneFS operating system (OS) that is based on FreeBSD.

OneFS unifies a cluster of nodes into a single shared resource. OneFS also has a file-striping functionality across each node in a cluster, a fully distributed lock manager, caching, fully distributed metadata, and a remote block manager to maintain global coherency and synchronization across the Isilon cluster.

The Isilon cluster is a single storage pool with a global namespace. This cluster enables you to support multiple volumes and file systems.

- Cisco UCS Director Support for EMC Isilon

Cisco UCS Director Support for EMC Isilon

Cisco UCS Director manages, monitors, and does reporting for the EMC Isilon system. Data is collected through the Isilon cluster platform and namespace REST API, which is connected to Cisco UCS Director through HTTP or HTTPS. This data is parsed and bound to the output as Plain Old Java Objects (POJOs), and these objects are distributed throughout the pod.

Configuring EMC Isilon System

You can manage, monitor, and configure reporting for the EMC Isilon system in Cisco UCS Director.

- Configuring Storage Pool Tiers

- Configuring Storage Node Pools

Configuring Storage Pool Tiers

Storage pool tiers are collections of node pools that you group to optimize storage according to need, such as a mission-critical high-speed tier that is best suited to data archiving. You can organize storage pool tiers, into logical groupings by creating policies that store or move files among these groups automatically, based on a specified criteria.

The following storage pool tiers can be created for specific purposes:

- An EMC Isilon S-Series performance tier can be combined with an archive tier (EMC Isilon NL-Series) in the same cluster.

- An EMC Isilon S-Series with Solid State Drives (SSDs) latency tier of can be added for latency-sensitive data must meet certain time constraints in order to be acceptable to a user.

- Older nodes can be reduced in numerical quantity and new nodes can be added as a new tier in the same cluster.

Tier

Description

EMC Isilon S-Series

This platform has Input/Output Operations Per Second (IOPS) for intensive applications which process large volumes of data and devote most of their processing time to input/output (I/O) and manipulation of data.

EMC Isilon X-Series

This platform is used for high concurrent and sequential throughput workflows.

EMC Isilon NL-Series

This platform is used for cost-effective, scalable near line (NL) on-site storage of data on removable media.

- Creating Storage Pool Tiers

Creating Storage Pool Tiers

On the menu bar, choose Physical > Storage.

Step 2

On the Storage pane, navigate to the pod with the Isilon account.

Configuring Storage Node Pools

Node pools are sets of physical nodes that are grouped by their equivalence class to optimize reliability and requested data protection settings. OneFS operating system creates node pools automatically when you install the system and whenever you add or remove nodes. The automatic creation of node pools is referred to as automated provisioning.

You can organize storage node pools into logical groupings and create policies that store or move files among these nodes automatically, based on a specified criteria.

- Creating Node Pools

Configuring SMB Shares

The Server Message Block (SMB) Protocol is a network file sharing protocol that was implemented by Microsoft for Windows. SMB shares provide Windows clients network access to file system resources on the cluster.

You can grant permissions to users and groups to carry out operations such as reading, writing, and setting access permissions on SMB shares.

The /ifs directory is configured as an SMB share and is enabled by default. OneFS supports both user and anonymous security modes. If the user security mode is enabled, users who connect to a share from an SMB client must provide a valid username with proper credentials.

The SMB protocol uses security identifiers (SIDs) for authorization data. All identities are converted to SIDs during retrieval and are converted back to their on-disk representation before they are stored on the cluster.
