Veritas Presentation at the Data Storage Innovation Conference 2015
This year Rajagopal Vaideeswaran and I had the pleasure to represent Veritas at the Data Storage Innovation Conference in Santa Clara. This is the second edition of this conference and it provides great content and trends from different storage vendors. As we could see in the conference, the future of storage is about commoditization and software defined.1.4KViews7likes3CommentsSoftware Defined Storage at the Speed of Flash
Symantec and Intel introduced a Solution Overview for a storage management architecture using Software Defined Storage and Intel PCIe drives with NVMe support in another blog entry. The proposed solution offered better performance with a fraction of the costs of all flash arrays.1.4KViews6likes2CommentsDockerized Builds
How can we use docker and extend to our build environment ? What is the benefit of doing so ? This article discusses on the use of docker to create images for our build environment and what is the other use case from the build and release point of view. The sections which we will discuss here are:983Views6likes0CommentsQuality of Service - Maxiops SLA
Data centers today service multiple independent applications which share storage resources. Unless applications are completely isolated from one another, whenever they vie for a shared resource, contention occurs. Each of these applications often require predictable quality of service.1.2KViews6likes0CommentsI/O fencing disk test
Hello, While testing the disk to be used for fencing prior to configuration, I am being prompted for password for both nodes over and over again. Kindly advise. vxfentsthdw -r -w /dev/hdiskpower2 -n use /usr/bin/rsh VERITAS vxfentsthdw version 5.1.1.0 AIX The utility vxfentsthdw works on the two nodes of the cluster. The utility verifies that the shared storage one intends to use is configured to support I/O fencing. It issues a series of vxfenadm commands to setup SCSI-3 registrations on the disk, verifies the registrations on the disk, and removes the registrations from the disk. The logfile generated for vxfentsthdw is /var/VRTSvcs/log/vxfen/vxfentsthdw.log.1 Enter the first node of the cluster: ibwebprod root@ibwebprod's [1] password: Enter the second node of the cluster: ibwebstdby root@ibwebstdby's [2] password: root@ibwebprod's [3] password:Solved623Views6likes2CommentsSoftware-defined Storage Architecture for Analyltics Computing
Software Defined Storage is modifying the way storage is being consumed. With the increase of cores per server and server-side storage slots available, software is the key aspect to virtualize all those components and unlock the performance and capacities of faster networks and processors.1KViews5likes0CommentsNew Release: Get the Private Cloud you Want From the Infrastructure You’ve Got
Symantec today announced a major refresh to its Storage and Availability Management portfolio to help customers build the private cloud they want by transforming their existing infrastructure.Symantec’s high availability solutions will enable users to architect resilient private clouds with fast local or global recovery of complete business services and data replication across any distanc911Views5likes2CommentsVirtual Business Services: High Availability for Complex Applications
Things just aren't as simple as they used to be. There was a time when we could achieve nearly all of ouruptime goals just by clustering our backend database servers and maybe a handful of other applicationservers. There was very little of that weird virtualization voodoo going on, and all our important applications ran on physical servers.690Views5likes0Comments
