About Distributed LAN Clients

Chapter 1 Introduction

reconfigure applications to retrieve data from disparate locations. Instead, applications continue to access files normally and SNSM automatically handles data access – regardless of where the file resides. As data movement occurs, SNSM also performs a variety of data protection services to guarantee that data is safeguarded both on site and off site.

StorNext supports distributed LAN clients. Unlike a traditional StorNext SAN client, a distributed LAN client does not connect directly to StorNext via fibre channel or iSCSI, but rather across a LAN through a gateway system called a distributed LAN server. The distributed LAN server is itself a directly connected StorNext client, but it processes requests from distributed LAN clients in addition to running applications.

Any number of distributed LAN clients can connect to multiple distributed LAN servers. StorNext File System supports Distributed LAN client environments in excess of 1000 clients, and should support deployments as large as 5000 clients. File system aggregate throughput is not adversely impacted.

Besides the obvious cost-savings benefit of using distributed LAN clients, there will be performance improvements as well.

Distributed LAN clients must be licensed in the same way as StorNext SAN clients. When you request your permanent StorNext license, you will need to specify the number of distributed LAN clients you plan to use. Naturally, you can always purchase additional distributed LAN client licenses as your needs expand. For more information about StorNext licensing, see Entering the StorNext License on page 40.

StorNext provides distributed LAN client information via the status monitors on the StorNext home page, SNSM home page, and SNFS home page. More detailed information is available through the Clients Report and the Distributed LAN Client Performance Report. For more information about StorNext reports, see StorNext Reports on page 270.

Before you can fully use distributed LAN clients, you must first configure a distributed LAN server and distributed LAN clients as described in the StorNext Installation Guide.
