Key Features

Your Sun Storage system also includes new technologies to deliver the best storage

price/performance and unprecedented observability of your workloads in production,

including:

■

Analytics, a system for dynamically observing the behavior of your system in real-time and

viewing data graphically

■

The ZFS Hybrid Storage Pool, composed of optional Flash-memory devices for acceleration

of reads and writes, low-power, high-capacity disks, and DRAM memory, all managed

transparently as a single data hierarchy

Data Services

To manage the data that you export using these protocols, you can congure your Sun Storage

system using the built-in collection of advanced data services, including:

■

RAID-Z (RAID-5 and RAID-6), mirrored, and striped disk congurations

■

Unlimited read-only and read-write snapshots, with snapshot schedules

■

Data deduplication

■

complete end-to-end architecture for data integrity, including redundancies at every level of the

stack. Key features include:

■

Predictive Self-Healing and diagnosis of all system hardware failures: CPUs, DRAM, I/O

cards, disks, fans, power supplies

■

ZFS end-to-end data checksums of all data and metadata, protecting data throughout the

stack

■

RAID-6 (DP) and optional RAID-6 across disk shelves

■

Active-active clustering for high availability (7310 and 7410)

Browser User Interface (BUI)

The browser user interface

The BUI is the graphical tool for administration of the appliance. The BUI provides an intuitive

environment for administration tasks, visualizing concepts, and analyzing performance data.

The management software is designed to be fully featured and functional on the following

supported web browsers: Firefox 2.x and 3.x, Internet Explorer 7 and 8, Safari 3.1 or later, and

WebKit 525.13 or later.

Direct your browser to the system using either the IP address or host name you assigned to the

NET0 port as follows: https://ipaddress:215 or https://hostname:215. The login screen appears.

Overview

Chapter 1 • Introduction 11

Command Line Interface (CLI)

The CLI is designed to mirror the capabilities of the BUI, while also providing a powerful

scripting environment for performing repetitive tasks. The following sections describe details of

the CLI. When navigating through the CLI, there are two principles to be aware of:

■

Tab completion is used extensively - if you are not sure what to type in any given context,

pressing the Tab key will provide you with possible options. Throughout the

documentation, pressing Tab is presented as the word "tab" in bold italics.

■

Help is always available - the help command provides context-specic help. Help on a

particular topic is available by specifying the topic as an argument to help, for example help

commands. Available topics are displayed by tab-completing the help command, or by

typing help topics.

You can combine these two principles, as follows:

dory:> help tab

builtins commands general help properties script

Controller Installation Overview

This section describes how to install any Sun Storage Unied Storage 7000 controller model

into a rack using the rail assembly in the bolt-on rackmount kit. Note that if your rack mount kit

shipped with installation instructions, use those instructions instead.

Observe the following cautions:

2

CHAPTER 2

13

■

Always load equipment into a rack from the bottom up so that it will not become top-heavy

and tip over. Deploy the anti-tip bar to the prevent the rack from tipping during equipment

installation.

■

Ensure that the temperature in the rack does not exceed the controller's maximum ambient

rated temperatures. Consider the total airow requirements of all equipment installed in the

rack to ensure that the equipment is operated within its specied temperature range.

■

For best results, only qualied Sun service personnel should perform cluster installation and

conguration. Contact Sun Service for assistance.

Prerequisites

Refer to the poster that shipped with the product or the following hardware service sections

located on

http://wikis.sun.com/display/shworks (http://wikis.sun.com/display/

for an overview of your system controller.

If you intend to install disk shelves into the same rack, refer to the

Disk Shelf Installation section

(applies to J4400 and J4500) for how to install them into the bottom of your rack.

Check that your rack is compatible with the slide rail and cable management assembly options

as follows:

■

The structure is a four-post rack with mounting at both front and back. Two-post racks are

not compatible.

■

The horizontal opening and unit vertical pitch conforms to ANSI/EIA 310-D-1992 or IEC

60927 standards.

■

The distance between the front and back mounting planes is between 24 inches and 36

inches (610 mm to 915 mm).

■

The distance to the front cabinet door, providing clearance depth in front of the front

mounting plane, is at least 1 inch (25.4 mm).

■

The distance to the back cabinet door, providing clearance depth behind the front mounting

plane, is at least 31.5 inches (800 mm) with the cable management assembly, or 27.5 inches

(700 mm) without the cable management assembly.

■

The distance between structural supports and cable troughs, providing clearance width

between the front and back mounting planes, is at least 18 inches (456 mm).

Tasks

The following are installation tasks with enumerated steps.

Controller Tasks

▼

Installing Mounting Brackets on the Chassis

If the mounting brackets are shipped inside the slide rails, you must remove them before

beginning this procedure, as follows.

■

Unpack the slide rails and locate the slide rail lock at the front of the assembly.

■

Squeeze and hold the tabs at top and bottom of the lock while you pull the mounting bracket

out to the stop.

■

Push the mounting bracket release button toward the front of the mounting bracket while

withdrawing the bracket from the assembly.

The following graphic illustrates the 7110, 7310, and 7410 rail kit.

Controller

Chapter 2 • Installation 15

The following graphic illustrates the 7210 rail kit.

Position a mounting bracket against the chassis so that the slide rail lock is at the front of the

chassis, and the keyed openings on the mounting bracket are aligned with the locating pins on

the side of the chassis.

Controller

Chapter 2 • Installation 17

With the heads of the four chassis locating pins protruding though the four keyed openings in

the mounting bracket, pull the mounting-bracket toward the front of the chassis until the

mounting-bracket clip locks into place with an audible click.

Verify that all mounting pins are securely fastened to the chassis.

Repeat to install the remaining mounting bracket on the other side of the chassis.

▼

Installing the Chassis into the Rack Slide Rails

This procedure requires a minimum of two people because of the weight of the chassis.

Attempting this procedure alone could result in equipment damage or personal injury. Always

load equipment into rack from the bottom up.

If you are using a universal 19-inch cabinet, snap an M6 square cage nut into the top and bottom

holes of the location where you will be installing the rail plate as shown in the following graphic.

Position a slide rail assembly in your rack so that the brackets at each end of the slide rail

assembly are on the outside of the front and back rack posts.The following graphic illustrates

the 7110, 7310, and 7410 rail assembly brackets.

Attach each slide rail assembly to the rack posts, but do not tighten the screws completely.3

Controller

Chapter 2 • Installation 19

From the front of the rack, set the proper width of the rails with the rail-width spacer.

Tighten the screws on the brackets.

Remove the spacer and conrm that the rails are attached tightly to the rack.
