SAN Fundamentals: How Fibre Channel SANs Are Built, Secured and Managed
White Paper In this paper, the term Storage Area Network (SAN) is used to describe a Fibre Channel network over which SCSI-FCP (SCSI over Fibre Channel) Protocols run. The most common Upper Level Protocols are SCSI and TCP/IP. [07 Jan 2008]
Evaluating Availability of Networked Storages Using Commercial Workloads
White Paper Two specific SAN systems are considered in this paper: iSCSI-based SAN and STICS (SCSI-To-IP Cache Storage) based SAN. This paper presents an availability study of Storage Area Network (SAN) systems built on TCP/IP networks. [05 Dec 2007]
Evolution in Hard Disk Drive Technology: SAS and SATA
White Paper The Advanced Technology Attachment (ATA) interface will be succeeded by Serial ATA (SATA), and the Small Computer System Interface (SCSI) will be replaced by Serial Attached SCSI (SAS). While Fibre Channel interface technology will continue to be... [23 Aug 2007]
Cisco MDS 9000 Family Performance Management
White Paper Probing deeper into Small Computer System Interface (SCSI) I/O statistics is required to identify affected hosts and storage devices. As storage-area networks (SANs) grow, so do the challenges for monitoring and resolving performance issues. [04 Jul 2007]
Design and Implementation of a Linux SCSI Target for Storage Area Networks
White Paper This paper describes the architecture of a set of kernel components for developing and testing storage area network transport protocols under Linux. This software is intended for several uses: as a general prototype for network transport protocol... [19 Apr 2007]
Sharing FCP Adapters Through Virtualization
White Paper Now industry-standard Small Computer System Interface (SCSI) devices in storage area networks must be shared among host computers using the Fibre Channel Protocol (FCP), and this has been problematic with virtual servers in a host computer. [06 Mar 2007]
Storage Design - Have You Considered iSCSI?
White Paper internet SCSI (iSCSI) is an official standard ratified by the Internet Engineering Task Force (RFC 3720, RFC 3783) that allows the use of the SCSI protocol over TCP/IP networks.iSCSI technology is well accepted in corporate production environments... [20 Oct 2006]
McDATA's Multi-Protocol SAN Technology
White Paper It describes how Internet SCSI (iSCSI), FC over IP (FCIP), and Internet FC Protocol (iFCP) integrate with FC SANs and discusses associated benefits and challenges. The maturity and mission-critical deployment of Fibre Channel (FC) in storage area... [23 Aug 2005]
iSCSI Security Configuration
White Paper By carrying SCSI commands over standard IP networks, iSCSI is used to facilitate data transfers over intranets and to manage storage over long distances. iSCSI is defined as Internet SCSI (Small Computer System Interface), a new Internet Protocol... [02 Mar 2005]
Dell pulls out blades in Paris
News Each blade comes with two Intel Xeon EM64T processors, up to 16GB of DDR2 memory, up to two hot plug SCSI hard disks and two Gigabit Ethernet ports. The PowerEdge 1855 is a 7U-high chassis, which can house up to 10 blades and a fibre channel link... [16 Nov 2004]
Increasing Storage Area Network Productivity
White Paper Rather than treating the HBA like a DAS SCSI interconnect, albeit with a longer optical wire, Sun SAN adapters have become true network interface cards (NICs) for the storage network. As SANs have grown to become true networks, Solaris OS and its... [12 Oct 2004]
Cisco's Storage Strategy : Opening New Markets Through Partnerships
White Paper Adapters attach servers and peripherals to the wiring in the network; bridges convert from one protocol to another (typically SCSI to Fibre channel); hubs, switches, and directors provide the central connection point and routing capability, much... [25 Aug 2004]
Linux iSCSI for IBM DB2 Universal Database on IBM eServer BladeCenter
White Paper The main advantage of iSCSI is its structure, which is composed of two main widely adapted protocols, SCSI and TCP/IP. Linux iSCSI is the iSCSI platform supported by Linux-based networks.iSCSI is a protocol that provides the ability to access a... [22 Aug 2004]
ServerAttach SAN Solutions for SCSI-Only Servers
White Paper A key aspect of this challenge is to maintain existing storage-hungry applications on aging servers where difficulties such as low capacity hard drives and lack of interconnect capability with existing or planned storage area networks (SANs) must... [14 May 2004]
How to Cook Up a Storage-Area Network
White Paper The idea is to relieve network congestion or bypass distance limitations imposed by traditional SCSI storage connections. Storage-area networks (SAN) are being adopted more frequently today, but uncertainty still exists among users about why to... [24 Feb 2004]
