注：请不要为连接 （级联）构造内部的交换机的上行端口 （E 端口）分区。

通常使用光纤通道交换机供应商提供的交换机管理软件来设置交换机分区 配置。该软件要么包含在交换机内，要么从供应商的网站上下载。

远程复制的分区原则

在您的存储阵列上启用远程复制自动为每个 RAID 控制器分配一个端口， 专用于复制。这些专用端口， RAID 控制器 0 上的端口 3 和 RAID 控制器

1上的端口 3，必须是在光纤通道交换机的不同分区上。一般来说，应该 建立交换机分区，从而：

•所有 RAID 控制器 0 光纤通道端口 3 都在共同分区内。

•所有 RAID 控制器 1 光纤通道端口 3 都在共同分区内，但 RAID 控制器 0 端口的分区分离。

•主机光纤通道访问端口与用作远程复制的端口处于不同的分区。

交换机级联

当两个或两个以上的光纤通道交换机级联，交换机管理软件将所有连接的 交换机端口合并。

日志文件系统和远程复制

使用日志文件系统时，您不能获得对远程虚拟磁盘的只读访问。日志文件 系统不支持在 Windows NTFS 系统上安装远程虚拟磁盘。但是，如果可 行，您可以安装远程虚拟磁盘的快照。

设置与管理远程复制

前提条件

在两个存储阵列间设置远程复制时，确保：

•远程复制高级功能已激活。

•本地存储阵列包括两个复制存储库虚拟磁盘 （激活时创建）。

•本地存储阵列包括将要复制的主虚拟磁盘。

•远程存储阵列包括用作复制目标的次虚拟磁盘，并且：

–两个虚拟磁盘都对一个管理站可见；复制的磁盘对不能在存储管理 软件的不同实例上进行管理。

–次虚拟磁盘的 RAID 级别可能与主虚拟磁盘的不同。

配置：高级功能——远程复制

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.
