Objectives of Storage Management
• Data availability to meet service level commitments even during failures, disasters, or other forms of primary data loss
• Data protection against loss and to prevent unauthorised access
• Data retention that is compliant with regulations and standards in an unalterable state, fully audited for long periods of time
• Cost-effective storage management infrastructure
![Page 6: Storage Architectures And Options](https://reader037.vdocuments.us/reader037/viewer/2022110119/555c3aa7d8b42a0b038b49b0/html5/thumbnails/6.jpg)

Backup and Data Archival
• Backup− Ensure efficient recoverability of data− Does not make backup data directly available− Optimised to bring large amounts of data back online quickly
for system recovery− Retention management at the volume level− Not oriented to long-term management beyond life of current
environment and media• Archiving
− Copy from online environment to separately managed (secure) storage to reduce cost of storage and enforce retention
− Provides easy (ideally transparent) access for retrieval− Optimised to write and retrieve data at file granularity− File-level retention management− Designed to manage data over long-term, through media
migration and with access auditing and controls− Designed to manage multiple copies of data on different media
types

High Level Storage Management Architectures
• Multi-tier data storage architectures− Primary/Secondary− Primary/Secondary/Tertiary− Primary/Secondary and Tertiary in parallel− Secondary disk storage layer is purely for
convenience to allow recall of data
• Advantages and disadvantages in terms of cost and service
![Page 8: Storage Architectures And Options](https://reader037.vdocuments.us/reader037/viewer/2022110119/555c3aa7d8b42a0b038b49b0/html5/thumbnails/8.jpg)
April 12, 2023 8
Hierarchical Storage Management (HSM)
• HSM is a key requirement of effective (and cost-effective) storage management
• Data is migrated (moved / copied) from one storage layer to another, usually less expensive, form of storage
• A stub is created for and replaces each migrated file− On the local system, a stub file looks and act like a
regular file
• When user action restores a file but the user does not change the file, that file is ″re-stubbed″ during the next migration process
![Page 9: Storage Architectures And Options](https://reader037.vdocuments.us/reader037/viewer/2022110119/555c3aa7d8b42a0b038b49b0/html5/thumbnails/9.jpg)

Hardware Options
• Disk Storage• Tape Storage – Manual or Automated• Optical Storage – Manual or Automated• Hybrid devices
− VTL (Virtual Tape Library)− EMC Centera− IBM DR550− Storage gateways
![Page 15: Storage Architectures And Options](https://reader037.vdocuments.us/reader037/viewer/2022110119/555c3aa7d8b42a0b038b49b0/html5/thumbnails/15.jpg)
April 12, 2023 15
Hardware Options - Disk
Disk – Advantages• Speed - FC and SATA disk technologies allow the data
to be housed on the appropriate disks• SATA Drive technology has mature and can lead to
decreased acquisition costs• FC and SATA can be used within the same storage
system for primary and secondary data• Storage Virtualisation
− Virtualise disk arrays within a storage system− Virtualise storage systems within a fabric− Thin provisioning allows over commitment of disk – reducing
acquisition costs− Single Instance Storage (Deduplication) can be used but its
effectiveness depends in the nature of the data
![Page 16: Storage Architectures And Options](https://reader037.vdocuments.us/reader037/viewer/2022110119/555c3aa7d8b42a0b038b49b0/html5/thumbnails/16.jpg)
April 12, 2023 16
Hardware Options - Disk
Disk – Disadvantages• Acquisition cost• Disk systems do not interoperate well• Management - multiple skill sets may be
required even if all storage systems are from the same vendor
• Most hardware vendors focus on ensuring hardware resilience, data resilience is not their concern
• Operating costs – power, air conditioning, maintenance
![Page 17: Storage Architectures And Options](https://reader037.vdocuments.us/reader037/viewer/2022110119/555c3aa7d8b42a0b038b49b0/html5/thumbnails/17.jpg)
April 12, 2023 17
Hardware Options – Removable Media
• Advantages− Control of costs− Keep fixed number of media within automated
library unit (could keep none)
• Disadvantages− External media needs media management and
control• Media management is greater for smaller capacity optical
disks
− Manual costs of media management
![Page 18: Storage Architectures And Options](https://reader037.vdocuments.us/reader037/viewer/2022110119/555c3aa7d8b42a0b038b49b0/html5/thumbnails/18.jpg)

April 12, 2023 32
Software Options
HSM • HSM is a principle most products offer the
same basic functionality− Automatic migration and management of data from
one medium to another− Stubs or pointer are left in place of migrated files− Speed of retrieval depends upon speed of hardware
upon which the files have been migrated to, this gives online, near-line and off-line options
![Page 33: Storage Architectures And Options](https://reader037.vdocuments.us/reader037/viewer/2022110119/555c3aa7d8b42a0b038b49b0/html5/thumbnails/33.jpg)
April 12, 2023 33
Software Options
Bridgehead Software• Small company, employee owned
− Can they offer the level of service and support required when really needed
− Are they possible acquisition targets
• Ideal for mid – large customers − Can it handle the levels of data over time
Caminosoft• Major corporation – publicly listed and managed by SEC
rules and regulations• Primary focus is on managing file server type data• Repackaged by vendors such as CA
![Page 34: Storage Architectures And Options](https://reader037.vdocuments.us/reader037/viewer/2022110119/555c3aa7d8b42a0b038b49b0/html5/thumbnails/34.jpg)
April 12, 2023 34
Software Options
Symantec• Major corporation• Two products:
− NetBackup− Enterprise Vault
• NetBackup− HSM does not support Windows
• Enterprise Vault− KVS staff still provide support, separate entity within Symantec− Focus is largely on email and compliance− Some integration with NetBackup− Files to be migrated are collected into CAB files− Entire CAB file recalled− Poor support for tape as archival medium
• Recommended that you only use tape for data that is seldom or never accessed
![Page 35: Storage Architectures And Options](https://reader037.vdocuments.us/reader037/viewer/2022110119/555c3aa7d8b42a0b038b49b0/html5/thumbnails/35.jpg)

April 12, 2023 37
Software Options
HSM Product
What is Required from chosen vendor / application?• Stable and functionally bullet proof solution• Easy to use• Capable of handling files• Capable of handling data volumes• Must integrate with backup application (so as NetBackup
does not initiate a restore when backing up or restoring stubs)
• Expert support knowledge• Expert integration knowledge
− These products are dependant on hardware vendors solutions
![Page 38: Storage Architectures And Options](https://reader037.vdocuments.us/reader037/viewer/2022110119/555c3aa7d8b42a0b038b49b0/html5/thumbnails/38.jpg)
April 12, 2023 38
Data Deduplication
• Store only one copy of data• The deduplication process should be granular
− The smaller the data block examined, the more likely it is duplicate data will be found.
• The deduplication process should be designed with minimal overhead when deduplicating (storing) and un-deduplicating (retrieving) data− Hardware better than software
• The deduplication process should provide resiliency to insure that all data can be reliably stored and retrieved, even in the event of system failure
![Page 39: Storage Architectures And Options](https://reader037.vdocuments.us/reader037/viewer/2022110119/555c3aa7d8b42a0b038b49b0/html5/thumbnails/39.jpg)
April 12, 2023 39
Data Deduplication
• Available for range of storage – hardware and software− Symantec Enterprise Vault creates a MD5 fingerprint
for every file that is archived• If multiple files have the same hash code, only one copy of
the file is physically stored
− IBM N Series has Advanced Single Instance Storage (ASIS)• Hardware and block-based deduplication

Software and Solution Design Constraints and Issues
Bottom Line• Produce a realistic design before implementation and validate
design• Solutions must be fully tested to ensure it works as expected• Decisions can then easily be made on the basis of the tests• NetBackup integration must be thoroughly tested with any
solution• Primary to secondary to tertiary migration and retrievals must be
tested and documented• Misconfiguration or lack of understanding can lead to data loss or
primary production system failure• Need to look at the total cost of ownership – maintenance, power,
manual effort – put a cost on all elements and activities to ensure fair comparison
• Reduced complexity – fewer components, vendors – means long-term ease of operation and use and has a genuine value

Sample Storage Capacity Planning
• Sizing issues and assumptions− Annual growth rate− Overhead for determination of actual disk storage requirements
(RAID overhead, etc.)− Archival storage medium utilisation overhead (allowance for
unfilled tapes, optical platters, RAID for VTL, etc.)− Storage lifecycle− Number of storage layers – 2 or 3
• Sample storage capacity planning scenarios− Annual growth rates – 0%, 10%, 20%, 30%− Translated into monthly growth rates for calculations - 20%
annual growth = 1.531% monthly − Three tiers− Migrate from Tier 1 to Tier 2 after 6 months− Migrate from Tier 2 to Tier 3 after further 6 months

Disk Space Calculations
• Storage estimates expressed as raw capacities required to accommodate data
• Includes overhead for effective usability, RAID, snapshots, online spare, less than 100% utilisation, etc.
• Primary storage after 5 years with 10% annual growth = 25,580 GB
• Equates to at least 34,533 GB of raw disk capacity
