For example, the Dell EqualLogic Array Software automatically tiers data to optimise pool performance at the sub-volume level-delivering the right data to the right place at the right time. Unlike traditional SANs, the Dell EqualLogic PS Series includes software features expected from an enterprise-level SAN at no extra cost and with no additional licensing fees. With advanced storage features once available only to top-tier data centers, the PS6110XS enables best practice storage for every size organisation. The PS6110XS includes fault-tolerant capabilities through fully redundant and hot-swappable components-dual 10GbE controllers, dual power supplies, and disk drives with hot spares.
The Dell EqualLogic SAN line is designed to exceed the rugged requirements of the data center. The PS6010 line features two 10GbE controllers with SFP+ and 10GBASE-T portoptions so you can leverage your existing infrastructure or build out lower-cost 10GBASE-T.Īll PS Series storage arrays include SAN configuration features and capabilities that sense network connections, automatically build RAID sets, and conduct system health checks to help ensure that all components are fully functional.
With a combination of SSD and SAS hard drives in one array, the PS6110XS provides low-latency performance with 13TB* of storage capacity. The Dell™ EqualLogic™ PS6110XS is a virtualised 10GbE iSCSI SAN that combines intelligence and automation with fault tolerance to provide simplified administration, enterprise performance and reliability, and seamless scalability. However, it's worth trying and as long as the correct drive is removed, it won't cause a problem for the array.Dell EqualLogic PS6110XS 10GbE iSCSI ArrayĮxperience SSD low-latency performance with spinning media HDD capacity in one storage solution However, that can depend upon what version of firmware has been installed on the unit (you can have 3 lots device, controller and drive). I would say that I have experienced the occasional issue with an Equallogic and if you remove the faulty drive, then re-insert it, sometimes the drive will actually then be OK. They are usually pretty good at sending out replacement drives. The IP addresses for the iSCSI connections won't allow you to connect to the device.ĭo those people have a support package with Dell? If so (and assuming that they have set-up the report home function), I would have expected the device to have sent off an alert email to the support guys at Dell. There is also some Dell system management software (mind gone blank, can't remember what it is called) that might also give details if it has been installed and configured. There should be an IP address for the Equallogic management interface port on the back of the unit that will allow you to use a browser to show a graphical display, indicating which drive will have failed and there will be an alert in the activity window.
