Compute node drive configurations

Compute node drive configurations

The Veritas 5360 Appliance compute node contains three Opal-compliant SED
only 1.92 TB NVMe SSDs. Each SSD is accessible from the compute node's front
panel. An embedded RAID controller on the compute node's mainboard configures
two of the three SATA SSDs into a RAID1 volume.
The two RAID1 volumes contain the appliance operating system, the operating
system swap file, the Flex application, and the logs. You can hot-swap one of these
drives at a time if a drive becomes problematic. Replacements must be SED capable
and of the same capacity. Or in other words, only like-for-like replacements are
permitted.
The drives in slot 1 and slot 2 are configured as RAID1 with slot 3 as the hot spare.
If a drive in the RAID volume experiences a hardware error, the appliance
automatically initiates a RAID rebuild operation. During the rebuild operation, the
appliance dynamically accesses the hot-spare drive and uses it to rebuild the RAID
volume.

LED System information

Power button with integrated The Power button toggles the system on and off. This
LED button also functions as a sleep button if enabled by an
ACPI compliant operating system. Pressing this button
sends a signal to the integrated BMC that either powers
on or powers off the system. Holding the power button for
10 seconds or more leads to a hard shutdown.

The integrated LED is a single color (green) and supports

different indicator states as defined in the following table.

See “About the Power button LED states” on page 19.

Drive Activity LED The drive activity LED on the front panel indicates drive
activity from the server board SATA and SATA storage
controllers. The server board also has an I2C header
labeled “SAS_MODULE_MISC” to provide access to this
LED for add-in SATA or SATA storage controllers.

LED System information

System ID button with integrated Toggles the integrated ID LED and the blue server board
LED system ID LED on and off. Both LEDs are tied together
and show the same state. The onboard system ID LED is
on the back edge of the server board, viewable from the
back of the system. The system ID LEDs are used to
identify the system for maintenance when installed in a
rack of similar server systems. Two options available for
illuminating the system ID LEDs are:

■ The front panel system ID LED button is pushed, which

causes the LEDs to illuminate to a solid On state until
the button is pushed again.
■ An IPMI Chassis Identify command is remotely
entered that causes the LEDs to blink for 15 seconds.

NMI button (recessed, tool When the NMI button is pressed, it puts the system in a
required for use) halt state and issues a non-maskable interrupt (NMI). This
situation can be useful when performing diagnostics for a
given issue where a memory download is necessary to
help determine the cause of the problem. To prevent an
inadvertent system halt, the actual NMI button is behind
the front control panel faceplate where it is only accessible
with the use of a small tipped tool like a pin or paper clip.

System Cold Reset Button When pressed, this button reboots and re-initializes the
system. Unlike the power button, the reset button does
not disconnect the power to the system. It just starts the
system’s Power-On Self-Test (POST) sequence over
again.

LED System information

System Status LED The system status LED is a bi-color (green/amber)

indicator that shows the current health of the server
system.

The system provides two locations for this feature; one is

on the front control panel and the other is on the back
edge of the server board, viewable from the back of the
system. Both LEDs are tied together and show the same
state. The system status LED states are driven by the
server board platform management subsystem. When the
server is powered down (transitions to the DC-Off state
or S5), the BMC is still on standby power and retains the
sensor and front panel status LED state established before
the power-down event.

Two locations are provided for you to monitor the health

of the system. You can find the first location on the front
control panel, while the second location is located on the
back edge of the server board. It is viewable from the rear
of the appliance. Both LEDs show the same state of health.

See “About the System Status LED states” on page 16.

About Veritas 5360 Appliance storage shelves

Veritas offers two external storage shelf models for the Veritas 5360 Appliance.
These include the:
■ Veritas 5U84 Primary Storage Shelf (required)
■ Veritas 5U84 Expansion Storage Shelf (optional)
 About the Veritas 5U84 Storage Shelves 32
About Veritas 5360 Appliance storage shelves

Both of the 5U84 Storage Shelf chassis include a set of common internal core
components, along with a set of plug-in modules.
The core components include:
■ Two sliding disk drawers that contain Disk Drive In Carrier (DDIC) modules
■ A front operations panel
■ A front bezel
■ Mid-plane printed circuit boards (PCB) that interface with controllers on the 5U84
Primary Storage Shelf and the 5U84 Expansion Storage Shelf.
In addition to the core components, the storage shelves also incorporate the following
plug-in modules:
■ Two 12Gb SAS-3 RAID controller modules (5U84 Primary Storage Shelf only)
■ Two Storage Bay Bridge 2.1-compliant Expansion I/O controller modules (5U84
Expansion Storage Shelf only)
■ Two power supply units (PSUs)
■ Five fan modules
■ Up to 84 Disk Drive In Carrier (DDIC) modules with drives installed
■ A rail kit for rack mounting
The 5U84 Primary Storage Shelf and the 5U84 Expansion Storage Shelf each use
a 5U chassis. Each chassis contains two sliding disk drive drawers that are located
in the front of the storage shelf. Each drawer holds 42 Disk Drive In Carrier (DDIC)
modules. The DDIC modules are installed in the drive drawer slots, which hold a
total of 84 disk drives. Each DDIC module holds SAS-3, 7200 rpm hard disk drives,
in either 4TB or 8TB capacities. The disk drives and the DDIC modules are
hot-swappable and can be replaced on-site while the storage shelf is operational.

Note: Whether you use 4TB or 8TB disk drives in the storage shelves, each storage
shelf drawer must be populated with disk drives of the same capacities.

In each storage shelf, two disk drives are used as global hot spares. Four of the
disk drives provide storage space for a dedicated RAID 10 metadata volume group.
When 4TB disk drives are used, the storage shelf provides 7.27TBs of metadata
storage capacity. When 8TB disk drives are used, the storage shelf provides
15.75TBs of metadata storage capacity. The remaining disks are configured in a
storage group that uses RAID 6 disk array technology. These disks are used for
MSDP and AdvancedDisk data storage purposes. Depending on the storage
configuration you purchase, the Appliance storage system supports up to 1,920TiBs
of usable data storage space.
 About the Veritas 5U84 Storage Shelves 33
About Veritas 5360 Appliance storage shelves

Note: RAID10 is also known as RAID 1+0. It combines disk mirroring and disk
striping to protect data.

Available appliance storage options

The Veritas 5360 Appliance compute nodes do not contain internal disk space on
which to store data. Instead, the 5360 Appliance uses the required Veritas 5U84
Primary Storage Shelf as the main data storage device. The 5U84 Primary Storage
Shelf connects to the 5360 Appliance compute nodes and uses RAID 6 drive sets
to protect the stored data.

Note: RAID 6 is also known as double-parity RAID. It uses two parity stripes on
each disk to protect data. RAID 6 allows for two hard disk failures within the RAID
disk array before any data is lost.

If additional data storage space is required, you can connect up to three optional
Veritas 5U84 Expansion Storage Shelves to the existing 5U84 Primary Storage
Shelf. The 5U84 Expansion Storage Shelves connect to the 5U84 Primary Storage
Shelf using SAS-3 data cables. After connecting the shelves, the disk drives in the
5U84 Expansion Storage Shelf use RAID 6 sets that are controlled by the 5U84
Primary Storage Shelf to protect the stored data.

Note: Veritas does not support mixing 4TB and 8TB disk drives within a storage
shelf.

Disk Drive In Carrier (DDIC) modules

All storage shelf hard disk drives are housed in DDIC modules. Each disk drive
drawer accepts a Disk Drive In Carrier (DDIC) module for each disk drive slot in
the drawer. DDIC modules enable disk drives to be quickly inserted and removed
without turning off the 5U84 storage shelves. In addition, each DDIC prevents
mis-alignment and damage to the disk drive connectors during the disk drive insertion
and removal process.
For troubleshooting purposes, DDIC modules provide one amber drive fault LED
indicator per disk drive. The fault indicator enables you to easily identify a failed
drive carrier in the drive drawer. You can see drive fault LED indicator when the
disk drive drawer is open.

Along with providing the electrical connectivity to the disk drives, PCB assemblies
also provide:
■ Mounting platforms for the drawer cabling system
■ Redundant power paths to each disk drive
■ Redundant 12Gb/s SAS signal paths to each disk drive
■ Provide technical feedback to the system when a drawer is opened or closed.
PCB assemblies include the following components:
■ Three drawer Baseplane cards
■ One right side Drawer Sideplane card
■ One left side Drawer Sideplane card

Each PCB assembly contains two Drawer Sideplane cards. One Sideplane card
mounts on the right side of the disk drawer, while the other card mounts on the left
side of the drawer.
Drawer Sideplane cards provide power paths to the drawer Baseplanes and the
DDICs and their installed disk drives. Sideplane cards also provide 12Gb/s SAS
connections.
Sideplane cards are hot swappable and replaceable by service personnel while the
storage shelf is running in a rack.

Note: Removing the Sideplane upper metal cover removes power to the Sideplane,
which enables the faulty Sideplane to be hot-swapped.

Veritas 5U84 Primary Storage Shelf RAID controllers

The Veritas 5U84 Primary Storage Shelf uses dual, hot swappable SAS-3 RAID
controllers. These controllers create and manage the 5U84 Primary Storage Shelf
disk drive RAID sets that contain backed up data. They also create and manage
the RAID sets on 5U84 Expansion Storage Shelves when those are attached to
the 5U84 Primary Storage Shelf.
The SAS-3 RAID controllers run RAID level 6 on the storage shelf. RAID 6 offers
the highest level of data protection. It allows simultaneous write operations, while
 About the Veritas 5U84 Storage Shelves 52
About the 5U84 Primary Storage Shelf and 5U84 Expansion Storage Shelf rear components

also allocating two sets of parity data across the drives that comprise the RAID 6
array.
The SAS-3 RAID controllers also provides an additional SAS-3 port. The SAS-3
port enables data to flow at SAS-3 data transfer rates between the 5U84 Primary
Storage Shelf and the first optional 5U84 Expansion Storage Shelf.

Veritas 5U84 Storage Shelf cooling modules

The Veritas 5U84 Storage Shelves include five cooling modules. The cooling
modules provide cooling to the entire unit, which is suitable to maintain the internal
component temperatures below each components maximum temperature limits.

4 Mid-plane connector

Cooling modules provide the following features:

■ Fast removal and replacement times without the need to turn off the storage
shelf.
■ Electronic fan speed control to the fans.
■ Redundant serial interface connections to the rest of the storage shelf system.
■ Cooling module redundancy
■ Redundancy includes:
■ Maintaining the cooling function of the cooling module in the event of a single
fan rotor failure.
■ Maintaining the normal operation of the cooling module if one cooling control
or fan controller module fails.
 About the Veritas 5U84 Storage Shelves 59
About the 5U84 Primary Storage Shelf and 5U84 Expansion Storage Shelf rear components

■ Automatically switching fan speeds to Full/High mode if the cooling module

control unit fails.
■ Maintaining the normal operation of the storage shelf for two minutes when
a cooling module is swapped out due to a failure.

5U84 Storage Shelf Power Supply Units

Veritas 5U84 Storage Shelves includes dual Power Supply Units (PSU) that provide
redundant power to the storage shelves. If one PSU fails, the storage shelves
continue to operate as the second PSU continues to supply the storage shelf with
power.
PSUs are hot-swappable. You can replace a faulty PSU while the storage shelf is
running. However, you must complete the PSU replacement procedure within two
minutes after you remove the faulty PSU.
Veritas 5U84 Storage Shelf chassis are keyed to prevent PSUs from being inserted
upside down.

Figure 2-25 5U84 Storage Shelf Power Supply Unit

The rear panel of the PSU includes a power switch, three status LEDs, and an AC
socket for the power cord. The rear panel also includes a handle that you use during
the PSU insertion and removal process.
