指定快照虚拟磁盘名称

选择一个有助于将快照虚拟磁盘和快照库虚拟磁盘与其相应的源虚拟磁盘 关联的名称。以下信息在命名虚拟磁盘时十分有用:

默认情况下,快照名称显示在 Snapshot virtual disk name (快照虚拟磁盘 名称)字段中,如下所示:

<source-virtual disk-name>—<sequence-number>

其中 sequence-number是快照相对于源虚拟磁盘按时间顺序排列的号码。

显示在 Snapshot repository virtual disk (快照库虚拟磁盘)字段中的关联 快照库虚拟磁盘的默认名称为:

<source-virtual disk-name>—R<sequence-number>

例如,如果为源虚拟磁盘创建的第一个快照虚拟磁盘称为 Accounting,则 默认快照虚拟磁盘为 Accounting-1,并且关联快照库虚拟磁盘的默认名称

Accounting-R1。基于Accounting 创建的下一个快照虚拟磁盘的默认名 称为 Accounting-2,相应的快照库虚拟磁盘的默认名称为Accounting-R2

无论您是否使用由软件提供的 (默认情况下)嵌入在 Snapshot virtual disk name (快照虚拟磁盘名称)或 Snapshot repository virtual disk name (快照库虚拟磁盘名称)字段中的序列号,下一快照或快照库虚 拟磁盘的默认名称仍将采用软件所确定的序列号。例如,如果您将源 虚拟磁盘 Accounting 的第一个快照命名为 Accounting-8,并且没有使 用软件提供的序列号 1,则 Accounting 下一个快照的默认名称仍为

Accounting-2

下一个可用的序列号根据源虚拟磁盘现有快照的数量而定。如果删除 快照虚拟磁盘,则其序列号将再次变得可用。

MD3620F, MD3600f specifications

Dell's MD3620F and MD3600F storage arrays are designed for businesses seeking dependable, high-performance storage solutions tailored to meet the demands of modern data management. These models offer a blend of scalability, efficiency, and advanced features, making them well-suited for a range of applications, from virtual environments to critical database operations.

One of the primary features of the MD3620F and MD3600F is their support for a hybrid storage architecture. This approach allows organizations to combine flash storage with traditional hard disk drives (HDDs) to optimize performance and cost. The MD3620F focuses heavily on all-flash configurations, delivering exceptional speed and lower latency, ideal for I/O-intensive workloads.

Scalability is another hallmark of these storage solutions. The MD3600F allows users to scale up to 120 drives, providing robust capacity to meet growing data needs. The MD3620F is engineered for environments where data availability and speed are paramount, with support for high IOPS (Input/Output Operations Per Second) and consistent performance under stress.

In terms of data management, both systems integrate with Dell’s proprietary software, which enhances operational efficiency through features like automated tiering. This technology optimizes data placement between different storage types based on access frequency, ensuring that hot data is readily available while reducing costs associated with less critical data.

Reliability is crucial for businesses that depend on their storage systems. The MD3620F and MD3600F come equipped with advanced data protection mechanisms, such as RAID support, which safeguards against data loss, and snapshot capabilities that provide point-in-time copies of data. Moreover, these solutions include hot-swappable components, ensuring minimal downtime for maintenance and repairs.

Connectivity is also a strong suit of these storage arrays. They support multiple connectivity options, including SAS and iSCSI, allowing for flexible integration into existing IT infrastructures. This adaptability enhances their appeal to a wide range of enterprise environments.

In summary, the Dell MD3620F and MD3600F stand out as robust storage solutions with a combination of hybrid and all-flash configurations, scalability, advanced data management tools, and enhanced reliability features. These characteristics make them ideal for organizations looking to enhance their data storage capabilities while maintaining high performance and efficiency.
