The Sun StorEdgeTM 6120 array is a distributed, very dense hardware-based RAID, Fibre Channel array that combines robust data availability and intuitive manageability with an immensely flexible architecture. The highly reliable Sun StorEdge 6120 array is simple to use, massively scalable, and provides the solid, predictable results demanded by today's business-critical applications. It can help enterprises increase operational efficiency and reduce costs by provisioning storage performance,
capacity and availability they need, when they need it.
A successor to the Sun StorEdge T3 array for the Enterprise and Workgroup products, the Sun StorEdge 6120 array is a new midrange storage array that provides increased manageability, better performance, greater flexibility, and higher density and capacity than the previous generation of midrange arrays.
Through the use of open standards and the SolarisTM Operating Environment, the Sun StorEdge 6120 array can be easily integrated with IT management utilities, including Sun's N1 IT architecture, Sun StorEdge Enterprise Storage Manager (ESM) software for centralized storage management, Sun StorEdge Traffic Manager software for optimal load balancing and path fail-over, and Sun Cluster software for high availability clustering. For heterogeneity these arrays support multiple platforms with a common storage infrastructure. Supported systems are Microsoft Windows NT/2000, HP-UX, IBM-AIX, Red Hat Linux,
and the Solaris Operating Environment.
The Sun StorEdge 6120 array is offered in two configurations, each providing different levels of availability, scaleability, and performance. With new, standards-based, open management software and application-specific storage policies, these midrange arrays simplify storage provisioning and can be easily tuned to match virtually any application workload.
- The Sun StorEdge 6120 array High Availability (HA) configuration provides redundant hardware RAID controllers with mirrored cache and hot-swappable hardware components for high-availability enterprise environments. The HA configuration can be scaled from two controller trays (2x2) with just seven drives per tray (504 GB) to a total of six trays (2x6), comprised of two controller trays and four expansion trays with a total of 84 drives (12 TB).
- The Sun StorEdge 6120 array is a single RAID controller array offering reliable, cost-effective storage with hot-swappable hardware components. The Sun StorEdge 6120 array can be scaled from one controller tray (1x1) with just seven drives (252 GB) to three trays (1x3) comprised of one controller tray and two expansion trays with a total of 42 drives (6 TB).
Both Sun StorEdge 6120 array configurations utilize a high-performance RAID controller featuring 1-GB data cache, ECC protection, one 2-Gb Fibre Channel host interface and two 1-Gb Fibre Channel drive interfaces. Additionally, the Sun StorEdge 6120 arrays can be ordered with single or multiple controllers and expansion trays, for simple right-sizing to exacting business requirements.
The Sun StorEdge 6120 array includes comprehensive management software for central administration of multiple midrange storage arrays. The Sun StorEdge 6120 array software includes, Sun StorEdge Configuration Service software, for simple, precise provisioning to specific application workloads and the Storage Automated Diagnostic Environment software, allowing administrators to monitor and diagnose the Sun StorEdge 6120 array from almost any computer. This robust array management software helps enable an organization to easily scale storage resources without increasing administration
costs or complexity.
The Sun StorEdge 6120 array is the industry's only midrange storage array to include software for advanced data protection and SAN-wide management. This robust storage services software package, includes Sun StorEdge Enterprise Storage Manager (ESM) 1.2 and Sun StorEdge Availability Suite 3.1 software (HA configurations only). The Sun StorEdge ESM provides a comprehensive, easy-to-use management portal for SAN-wide visibility and control. The Sun StorEdge Availability Suite delivers a wide variety of data protection features. With point-in-time copies and remote replication, this software enables Sun StorEdge 6120 array customers to implement a wide variety of data protection or disaster recovery solutions.
