AnnouncementIBM System Storage DS8000 (Release 6.1)

Release 6.1 Whats new

In addition to its advanced hardware design, the DS8000 is smarter storage

Evolution from manual configuration and tuning to automation and efficiency

Automation and efficiency are imperatives for multi-tenancy environments, such as cloud computing

It all starts with our volume management foundation and system architecture

Advanced storage efficiency and quality of service (QoS) capabilities

Support for larger volume sizes and new GUI can help increase administrator productivity and lower

operating costs

Easy Tier enhancements can help clients more effectively optimize performance and capacity

management

New QoS feature can help improve application service levels, enable consolidation, and lowerinfrastructure costs

Why this is important

Practical design offers unique storage efficiency and management effectiveness

Consistent extent size makes volume creation and dynamic expansion very easy

Consistent extent size makes extent pools very flexible in terms of size, data type, and allocation

Extent-based volumes dont leave orphaned capacity scattered throughout the system

This design enables Easy Tier to perform effective tiering by dynamically distributing extentsacross tiers or within a tier

Superior volume management drives efficiency and effectivenessBase extent pool design offers tremendous simplicity, flexibility, efficiency

* Extents are 1GB (fixed block) or about 0.94 GB (CKD)

All the capacity in the DS8000 is organized into extent pools

Extent pools contain consistent1GBextents

Extents are the building blocks forallvolumes

Foundational storage pooldesign simplifies management andsystem efficiency

Easy Tier enhancements (2nd generation)Superior volume management leads to higher efficiency and flexibility


Easy Tier automatic mode now supports migration between any two tiers

Initial release addressed need for faster performance with efficient and effective SSD deployments

Required SSDs to be paired with either enterprise or nearline HDDs

Release 6.1 addresses need for maintaining fast performance (without SSDs) while reducing drivecount with effective use of large capacity nearline drives

Extends DS8000 scalability by migrating cold data to nearline drives

Enterprise-class value at midrange price points

Automatic extentrebalancing within a tier

Easy Tier automatic mode redistributes extents within a tier whenever it shows I/O skew, when newcapacity is added or when capacity is removed

Helps keep performance optimized when capacity changes

Applies only to Easy Tier managed pools

Rank depopulation

Easy Tier can reallocate extents from previously used arrays back into extent pool without taking dataoffline

Easy and effective way to repurpose capacity that can help performance rebalancing

Invoked when administrator manually unassigns an existing rank

Examples of key performance optimization differentiators

IBM Power-based design provides exceptionally high performance

8 Gbps host anddevice adapters

Storage Pool Striping is easy to implement and proactively avoids hotspots

4KB cache pages (slots) optimize processor memory utilization and costs

Advanced caching algorithms help optimize workload performance in the

milliseconds-seconds range

New I/O Priority Manager helps optimize application QoS easily and

effectively in the minutes range

Easy Tier helps optimizes performance across tiers or within a tier in the

daily range

Proven DS8000 architecture drives performanceSuperior design enables tremendous performance, flexibility, efficiency

Aligningperformance to applicationneeds automatically



14/27


I/O Priority Manager aligns service levels to separate workloads in the system Administrators select from 4 Performance Groups (service levels) to assign to each volume

1 for highest; 2 for standard; 3 for low priority; 0 for no priority (default)

All volumes are associated with a Performance Group and all I/Os are monitored

System resources are dynamically allocated to higher priority volumes (applications) when there is

resource contention

How I/O Priority Manager works I/O Priority Manager delays the right amount of I/O from lower priority volumes, so higher priorityvolumes get more throughput

Automatic and only when there is contention for a resource between multiple volumes

I/O Priority ManagerAutomated quality of service management delivers performance when and where

its needed and enables greater storage efficiency and consolidation

DS8000 Resource Groups (new management facility)

Managingstoragegrowth andcomplexity

Enhanced data protection for multi-tenancy environments

Resource Groups is a new management facility to limit

administrator control to specific resources

Helps ensure volumes dont interfere with each other

Applies to multi-application and multi-tenancy environments.

Examples:

Test volumes / Production volumes

Open volumes / CKD volumes

Coke volumes / Pepsi volumes

Increasedsupport for workloadconsolidation andcloudenvironments

How IBM Global Financing adds value

IBMStorage Client How w e addedvalue

University of Calgary

Attractive lease option reduces TCO: Since budget was a major concern the university arranged

a lease program through IBM Global Financing Services. In addition to helping reduce the total

cost of ownership, leasing helps the university keep technologies current and make flexibleequipment decisions to support student growth and changing administrative needs.

LEGO Systems IBM Global Financing was able to assist during this period of very high growth, as ourinvestment budget is required for many different projects. LEGO is in a capital intensiveplatform-building phase, and we are perhaps 50 percent complete. IBM Global Financing wasable to make the investments possible without diverting precious resources away from the core

business building activities. - Esben Viskum, Senior Director, LEGO Service Center

Packet One Networks

Helped client to:

Preserve capital for marketing expenditures that help exploit growth opportunities

Expedite implementation and easily continue its aggressive growth

Decrease total cost of ownership 64.8% savings over four years

Rochling Automotive

IBM Global Financing delivered funding for hardware and SAP software in three stages to alignwith implementation progress with repayment for all three stages calculated across the 39-month

period, all in a single monthly payment

Rchling Automotive achieved a single monthly payment plan for the whole project.

Ensured that client could implement the latest technology to support business-critical R&D

processes, and also released several million Euros of capital to invest in other projects
