5 NAS Cluster Configuration
After completing the EqualLogic FS7610 hardware installation, you can configure a NAS cluster.
Steps for Configuring a NAS Cluster
1. See
Gathering the NAS Cluster Configuration Information on page
2. Complete
Table
10.
3. Use the Group Manager GUI to discover each FS7610 NAS appliance that you want to include in the NAS
cluster and then start the Configure NAS Cluster wizard. See
NAS Cluster on page
When the NAS Cluster Configuration wizard completes, the group begins to configure the NAS cluster. The
NAS Cluster Configuration – Progress window appears, enabling you to track the progress of the cluster
configuration.
The PS Series group remains fully operational during the NAS cluster configuration.
After you successfully configure a NAS cluster, you can create multiple NAS containers.
Gathering the NAS Cluster Configuration Information
Before beginning the NAS cluster configuration, obtain the following information:
•
Service tag number for each FS7610 NAS appliance you want to add to the NAS cluster.
You must add controllers to a NAS cluster in pairs. A NAS cluster can support up to four controllers (two
appliances).
The service tag identifies an appliance, which contains two controllers that must be paired with each other.
The service tag number is on the right-side ear on the front of the appliance (see
Panels on page
9).
•
Initial size of the NAS reserve and the storage pool from which to consume the space.
The NAS reserve is the amount of storage capacity, from an EqualLogic storage pool, dedicated for use by
the NAS cluster. The NAS reserve stores the following data:
Internal data. Each controller pair requires a minimum of 512GB of space.
If you specify the minimum NAS reserve size, you will have little to no space for creating
containers unless you increase the NAS reserve. Specify a value larger than the minimum to
avoid space issues.
After you configure the NAS cluster, you can increase the size of the NAS reserve, as needed. However,
you cannot later decrease the NAS reserve.
•
Information about the client, SAN, and internal networks used in the NAS cluster.
