The DS8700 is the most advanced model in the IBM System Storage DS8000® series. It includes IBM POWER6®-based controllers, with a dual 2-way or dual 4-way processor complex implementation. Its extended connectivity, with up to 128 Fibre Channel/FICON® ports for host connections, make it suitable for multiple server environments in both open systems and IBM System z® environments. If desired, the DS8700 can be integrated in an LDAP infrastructure. The DS8700 supports thin provisioning. Depending on your specific needs, the DS8700 storage subsystem can be equipped with SATA drives, FC drives, and Solid® State Drives (SSDs). The DS8700 can now automatically optimize the use of SSD drives through its no charge Easy Tier feature. The DS8700 also supports Full Disk Encryption (FDE) feature. Its switched Fibre Channel architecture, dual processor complex implementation, high availability design, and the advanced Point-in-Time Copy and Remote Mirror and Copy functions that incorporates make the DS8700 storage subsystem suitable for mission-critical business functions.

Download or read book IBM System Storage DS8000 Copy Services Scope Management and Resource Groups written by Bertrand Dufrasne and published by IBM Redbooks. This book was released on 2013-01-11 with total page 74 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The IBM® System Storage® DS8000® offers a policy-based resource management capability. This capability, named resource groups or Copy Services scope management, is the topic of this paper. With Copy Services scope management, Copy Service relationships can be limited to the domain of a set of user-specified resources. Additionally, user IDs can be configured to only allow them to issue Copy Services requests against a specific domain. This capability facilitates multi-tenancy by preventing any host or user from initiating a Copy Services operation that would cross a specific tenant's domain boundaries. In addition to the multi-tenant capability, Copy Services domains can also provide general-purpose partitioning to isolate heterogeneous environments from each other. The Copy Services scope management capability is available for any host type on any volume type. This IBM RedpaperTM publication is intended for anyone interested in Copy Services scope management. The paper starts with a general overview of the Copy Services scope management capability, its intended usage, and explanations of the underlying concept of resource groups. Subsequent chapters provide implementation details for both open systems and System z® perspectives and include usage illustrations with the DS8000 command-line interface (DSCLI).
