EqualLogic Terminologies

EqualLogic PS series storage arrays include storage virtualization technology.

To better understand how these arrays operate, it is helpful to be familiar with

some of the terminology used to describe these arrays and their functions:

•

Member

— a single PS series array is known as a member.

•

Group

— a set of one or more members that can be centrally managed.

Host servers access the data through a single group IP address.

•

Pool

— a RAID that can consist of the disks from one or more members.

•

Volume

— a LUN or virtual disk that represents a subset of the capacity

ofapool.

Cabling EqualLogic iSCSI Storage System

You can attach the host servers to the Dell™ EqualLogic PS5000XV iSCSI array

through an IP storage area network (SAN) industry-standard Gigabit Ethernet

switch.

Figure 1 shows the recommended network configuration for a dual control

module PS5000XV array. This configuration includes two Dell PowerConnect

6200 Gigabit Ethernet switches to provide highest network availability and

maximum network bandwidth. It is recommended that you use two Gigabit

Ethernet switches because if the switch fails in a single Ethernet switch

environment, all hosts lose access to the storage until you physically replace the

switch and restore the configuration. In such configuration, there should be
