| | Symmetrix DMX2000 |  |
Storage density and performance
|
DMX stands for Direct Matrix, a fundamentally new storage array architecture that delivers entirely new levels of performance, availability, functionality, and economics.
The Symmetrix DMX2000 is a top performance DMX model. It has all the features of the established Symmetrix family and is with up to 288 drives and |
96 front-end ports ideal for dedicated, remote/distributed or OEM application that demand the power and scalability of a modern high-end storage system. It is especially designed for non-disruptive operation, so your data will be online always.
Reliability functions
The Symmetrix series satisfies all availability levels. User can combine data mirroring with RAID protection and data mirroring either locally or remotely. Data can be mirrored offsite, without additional load to the host. So the critical data is available even in disaster scenarios. The fully redundant system provides advanced failure protection and even the maintenance can be performed without downtime. Potential problems in drives or cache will be detected by regular background self-tests.
Specialised models to fit customer’s demands
For the Symmetrix DMX2000, as well as for all other products in the Symmetrix family, there are specialised models, which fit higher customer’s demands in performance or availability. Not everyone needs them, but for example in large-scale data warehouses or decision support environments, these models may be right.
Our experts will of course assist you in determining which Symmetrix DMX performance model is the most appropriate solution.
Symmetrix DMX 2000-M - Meeting more demanding SLA requirements
When Service Level Agreements require higher levels of performance and availability the new Symmetrix DMX2000-M2 models are the right choice.
They incorporate 1Ghz PowerPC channel and disk directors to raise the top-end systems performance of the Symmetrix DMX series by up to 30%. In addition to the new DMX-2 models, this technology is also available as a data-in-place upgrade to existing Symmetrix DMX systems.
Symmetrix DMX2000-P - the ultimate in storage system performance
The Symmetrix P-Model is built for extra speed in extreme, performance-intensive environments. It is optimized for ultrahigh performance in terms of number of disk channels and the ratio of disks to those channels.
