IBM System Storage N series—Unified Storage Systems
N series Highlights
●
Unified storage architecture—provides a single storage platform to support heteroge-
neous, multiprotocol storage requirements with the capability of simultaneously handling
both Block I/O (with FCP or iSCSI protocol) and File I/O (with CIFS, NFS, HTTP, FTP protocols)
application needs
●
Application-aware software—SnapManager software provides host-based data manage-
ment of N series storage for databases and business applications. Simplifies application-
consistent policy-based automation for data protection and disaster recover. Snapshot
copies and automates error-free data restores and enables application-aware disaster
recovery
Thin Provisioning—allows applications and users to get more space dynamically and non-
disruptively without IT staff intervention
Ease of installation—offers installation tools designed to help simplify installation and
setup
Increased access—allows heterogeneous access to IP attached storage and Fibre Channel
attached storage subsystems

NOTES:
*Systems are based on dual clustered storage controllers. Divide all numbers by one-half if a single
storage controller system is ordered.
A single controller can be easily upgraded to a dual controller system as your computing needs increase.
The dual controller is a fully redundant system and is designed to provide failover and failback
capabilities.

Volume Controller
(SVC)
Based on virtualization technology, the
IBM System Storage SAN Volume Controller
is designed to increase the efficiency and
flexibility of your storage infrastructure by
pooling storage and centralizing manage-
ment, and enabling changes to the physical
storage while avoiding disruption to
applications.
Manage storage volumes from a central point: SVC is designed to
enhance the flexibility of your storage environment. It can combine
the storage capacity from multiple disk systems from different suppli-
ers into a single pool of storage that can be managed from a central
point. In this way, fewer skills are required and storage administrators
can become more productive.

value of their data. For example, mission-critical data can be stored
on high-performance, highly available Fibre Channel disks while non-
mission-critical data can be stored on Serial ATA disks. Data can eas-
ily be moved from one tier to another without application disruption.
