11检查 Physical Disks to add (要添加的物理磁盘)[ 机柜、插槽 ] 区域, 确保已添加的物理磁盘正确无误。

12既可接受最终容量,也可在 Increase capacity by (增加以下大小的容 量)字段中输入或选择相应容量。

13单击 OK (确定)。

将立即更新 Logical (逻辑)选项卡。容量增加的快照库虚拟磁盘会显 示 Operation in Progress (操作正在进行)状态。此外,快照库虚拟磁 盘会显示其初始容量以及添加的总容量。增大容量时,相关的 Free Capacity (可用容量)节点会显示容量减少。如果所有可用容量都用 于增加虚拟磁盘的大小,则从 Logical (逻辑)选项卡删除相关的 Free Capacity (可用容量)节点。

如果满足以下条件,则会创建新的 Free Capacity (可用容量)节点并 将其显示在 Logical (逻辑)选项卡中:

添加容量之前,不存在 Free Capacity (可用容量)节点。

并非所有添加的容量都用于增加快照库虚拟磁盘的容量。

Physical (物理)选项卡上,为增加快照库虚拟磁盘容量而添加的 未分配物理磁盘或未配置容量会更改为已分配的物理磁盘。新分配的 物理磁盘与快照库虚拟磁盘的磁盘组相关联。

禁用快照虚拟磁盘

要禁用快照虚拟磁盘,若:

您现在不需要快照。

您打算稍后重新创建快照,并想要保留关联的快照库虚拟磁盘以免再 次创建。

您想要通过停止对快照库虚拟磁盘的写入时复制活动来最大化存储阵 列的性能。

注:如果不打算稍后重新创建快照虚拟磁盘,可在 Logical (逻辑)窗格中 选择快照虚拟磁盘,然后选择 Virtual Disk (虚拟磁盘) ? Delete (删除)将 其移除。同时还会移除相关的快照库虚拟磁盘。有关移除快照虚拟磁盘的详 细信息,请参阅 PowerVault Modular Disk Storage Manager 联机帮助主题。

注:即使在快照虚拟磁盘禁用后, SMdevices 公用程序仍会在其输出中显示 快照虚拟磁盘。

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.
