Planning for Hyper-V: PowerVault™ MD3200 and MD3200i Series of Arrays

Power

Connect the power supplies for the Dell PowerVault MD3200 storage array to separate power sources.

Doing so ensures that even if one component fails due to a power issue, the alternative path continues

to work.

Planning the IP SAN Installation with the Dell

PowerVault™ MD3200i and MD3220i Storage Arrays

You can implement an IP storage area network (SAN) in various ways based on business requirements,

available resources, and intended application. For instance, one important but easily overlooked item

that can improve the manageability of your IP SAN implementation is to assign a consistent and

representative naming scheme to the storage arrays. This assignment is especially useful if the SAN has

more than one storage array attached to it. You can use the "blink array" feature of the Modular Disk

Storage Manager to correctly identify each storage array physically.

This section contains some general implementation guidelines; however, these guidelines might not

benefit all applications.

Redundancy

Redundancy requires having a second set of hardware and communication paths so that if one piece of

hardware on one path breaks down, a second path can be used. In an IP SAN, a second controller in the

storage array can perform redundancy, and redundancy is available when you use two different

switches for the iSCSI network. Figure 2 shows such a configuration.
