Back to top
The IBM System Storage SAN Volume Controller Solution is designed to
incorporate highly specialized software, storage engines (SVC Storage
Engines) installed in pairs, a master console, and UPSs. The SAN Volume
Controller hardware configuration consists of a cluster of IBM 2145
servers, called SVC Storage Engines. Each SVC Storage Engine is a node;
two nodes make up a node pair (I/O Group), and up to four I/O Groups
constitute an SAN Volume Controller cluster. The cluster is scalable
from one to four node pairs (I/O Groups), and supported by dual
read/write cache. This design is intended to avoid single points of
failure and support concurrent maintenance.
IBM System Storage SAN Volume Controller Storage Engine:
The SVC Storage Engine (2145 Model 8G4) is based on the IBM
System x3550, has an 8-GB cache, and 4-Gbps host bus adapter (HBA) for
attachment to the SAN. The Model 8G4 auto-negotiates the fabric
speed on a per-port basis and is not restricted to run at the same speed
as other node pairs in the cluster.
The 2145 Model 8G4 may be added in pairs to an existing cluster of
Model 4F2, Model 8F2, Model 8F4, or Model 8G4
engines, up to the maximum of four node pairs.
One UPS — single (#8115) must also be ordered for each SVC Storage
Engine. For more details, refer to the replacements information, below.
The SVC Storage Engine is shipped with preloaded SVC Storage Software
V4.2 (ordered separately). The SAN Volume Controller hardware will not
ship without a companion order for the software. For a description of
the software and ordering procedures, refer to Software Announcement
207-105
, dated May 22, 2007.
The storage engines must be installed in pairs to provide load sharing
and failover protection. Four optical fiber cables are required by each
engine in the cluster for connection to the Fibre Channel Switches in the
SAN. These cables are not provided as part of the engine, but may be
ordered by feature number.
Each SVC Storage Engine has an Ethernet port for connection via Ethernet
LAN to the master console, that provides configuration and error
reporting. These connections need to be aggregated together through an
Ethernet hub or switch. The Ethernet hub or switch and cabling are not
included as part of the SAN Volume Controller.
Model 8G4 engines can typically replace all earlier models of the
SVC Storage Engines in a cluster without disrupting applications running
on the hosts. If you wish to have the new nodes replace existing nodes
in an existing configuration, feature number 3905 must be ordered for
one, and only one, of the replacement nodes that are being ordered.
Feature number 3905 directs the CE to remove the old nodes from the
existing rack.
Master Console (#4001 or #4002)
The master console is used as a platform for all the configuration,
management, and service software required to manage the SAN Volume
Controller. The hardware feature (#4001) is a rack-mounted server that
includes a keyboard and monitor. The master console, monitor, and
keyboard (#4001) occupy a 2U space in the rack. Its preloaded software
provides the following functions:
-
"Remote Service" capability via IBM Virtually On-Site
-
SAN Volume Controller CLI support for configuration
-
SAN Volume Controller configuration using the SAN Volume Controller
Console
The Master Console — Software (#4002) provides the same function, but
is a software-only alternative feature and must be installed on
equivalent customer-provided hardware that meets minimum requirements.
The master console includes IBM and non-IBM Licensed Machine Code. Use
is subject to the terms of the applicable licenses.
The master console is ordered as a feature of the first SVC Storage
Engine of the IBM System Storage SAN Volume Controller Solution. It is
required
for each SAN containing IBM System Storage SAN Volume Controller
Solutions. Additional or subsequent SAN Volume Controllers, within an
SAN, can share the master console.
A master console, or a system with a supported browser that can access
the SVC GUI on the master console through the customer's network, must be
placed within 30 feet of the SAN Volume Controller clusters to be
serviced, for use by IBM SSRs performing service activities.
A power cord to connect the master console to a standard Power
Distribution Unit (PDU) (for feature number 4001 only) ships standard
with the master console. If the master console will not be installed in
a rack with a PDU, a country-specific power cord must be ordered with
feature number 4001 to connect to an alternate power source.
License Information for programs furnished with the Master Console (#4001
or #4002) is shipped with the master console.
Uninterruptible Power Supply (UPS):
In the event of a power failure, the UPS is designed to provide
temporary power to allow the SVC Storage Engine to begin node shut down
gracefully. Shut down includes saving the contents of the cache and
cluster information to the internal disk drive of each node.
The UPS monitors the condition of its battery to enable planned
maintenance actions to be performed. Each UPS provides an independent
source of power to the node to which it is connected. It must not be
used for any other purpose.
The UPS — single feature (#8115) provides one UPS for one SVC Storage
Engine of the SAN Volume Controller cluster. One UPS — single (#8115)
must be ordered for each engine of a cluster, both for the initial engine
(#3001) and for additional engines (#3002).
Each UPS — single (#8115) requires a 200-240 V, minimum 5 amp power
source; the UPS — single (#8115) is protected by its own 10 amp circuit
breaker. UPSs of a node pair (I/O group) should be connected to separate
circuits to provide added redundancy.
A power cord to connect the UPS to a standard PDU ships standard with the
UPS. A country-specific power cord to connect to an alternate power
source must also be ordered with the UPS.
This feature is both plant and field installed.
UPS replacement information:
The SVC Storage Engine is not supported by the old UPS (#8100), used
with 2145 Model 4F2. One UPS — single (#8115) must be ordered for
each replacement SVC Storage Engine when replacing a Model 4F2
powered by feature number 8100. This is true even if the existing
cluster has additional UPS capacity. If the existing cluster has two or
six nodes, powered by the original UPS (#8100), there is unused UPS
capacity to add Model 4F2 nodes without requiring additional UPS.
However, since feature number 8100 will not support SVC Storage Engine
nodes, they will require the UPS — single (#8115).
Redundant AC Power (#8300)
This is an optional feature that is designed to enhance reliability by
accepting power from two separate circuits. Each Redundant AC Power
switch may be used to provide power to one or two SVC UPSs (#8115). The
preferred configuration is one Redundant AC Power switch for each SVC UPS
(each SVC storage engine). If two SVC UPSs are powered by a single
Redundant AC Power switch, the 2 nodes must not be in the same I/O group.
In the event of the failure of either of the input circuits, power
continues to be provided to the SVC UPSs by the redundant circuit.
Accessibility by people with disabilities
The following features support use by people with disabilities:
-
Controls and latches are operable with one hand and minimal dexterity.
-
The keys on the panel are tactilely discernible without activating them.

this feature may be ordered with each SVC Storage Engine.
This feature is both plant and field installable.
25 m Fiber Opt Cable LC-LC (#5325):
This feature provides one 25-meter, fiber optic cable with LC connectors on each end. Four of
this feature may be ordered with each SVC Storage Engine.
This feature is both plant and field installable.
Uninterruptible Power Supply (UPS) (#8115):
In the event of a power failure, the UPS can provide temporary power while the contents of the
SAN Volume Controller cache and cluster information is written to the internal disk drive of each
node of the SAN Volume Controller. The UPS monitors the condition of its battery to enable planned
maintenance actions to be performed. Each UPS provides an independent source of power to the node
to which it is connected. It must not be used for any other purpose.
The UPS — single feature (#8115) provides one UPS for one SVC Storage Engine of the SAN Volume
Controller cluster. For orders of a new SAN Volume Controller cluster (includes an initial engine,
feature number 3001) running SVC Storage Software V2, or later, placed after May 10, 2005,
one UPS — single (#8115) must be ordered for each engine of the cluster, both for the initial
engine (#3001) and for additional engines (#3002).
Each UPS — single (#8115) requires a 200-240 V, minimum 5 amp power source; the UPS — single
(#8115) is protected by its own 10 amp circuit breaker. UPSs of a node pair (I/O group) should be
connected to separate circuits to provide added redundancy.
This feature may be mixed with UPS feature number 8100 in an SAN Volume Controller configuration
only for configurations running SVC Storage Software V2, or later. For configurations running SVC
Software V1, UPS feature number 8100 must be used; V1 does not support feature number 8115.
For clusters of two or six engines, the use of UPS — single (#8115) may result in a lower-price
solution. UPS feature number 8100 supported up to four nodes.
A power cord to connect the UPS to a standard PDU ships as standard with the UPS. A
country-specific power cord to connect to an alternate power source must also be ordered with the
UPS.
This feature is both plant- and field-installed only.
Redundant AC Power (#8300):
Each Redundant AC Power switch is designed to enhance reliability by accepting power from two
separate circuits. Each Redundant AC Power switch may be used to provide power to one or two SVC
UPSs (#8115). The preferred configuration is one Redundant AC Power switch for each SVC UPS (each
SVC storage engine). If two SVC UPSs are powered by a single Redundant AC Power switch, the two
nodes must not be in the same I/O group. In the event of the failure of either of the input
circuits, power continues to be provided to the SVC UPSs by the redundant circuit.
This feature is designed to provide power to UPS feature number 8115 only; it must not be used for
any other purpose.
Each of the two power sources are required to be 200-240 V, minimum 5 amp, 50/60 Hz, single phase,
and to have IEC320-C19 type outlets. The power cable (cord), between the Redundant AC Power switch
and each connected SVC UPS, is rated at 10 amps.
Each input circuit for the Redundant AC Power switch must be protected by a circuit breaker with
maximum rating of 16 amps. Where the Redundant AC Power switch is used to supply a single UPS, a
circuit breaker with a minimum rating of 5 amps is required; if two UPSs are being powered then a
breaker with a minimum rating of 7 amps is required.
Power cords to connect the Redundant AC Power switch to a standard PDU ships standard with the
switch. The Redundant AC Power switch connects to a rack PDU only. There are no separate country
specific power cords for the switch.
This optional feature is both plant and field installable.

Ethernet connection:
Every SAN Volume Controller must be connected via Ethernet to a master console. Multiple
clusters can be managed by a single master console, therefore, at least the first cluster installed
in an SAN must include a Master Console (#4001 or #4002).
Fibre Channel and Ethernet cabling is not included as part of the hardware provided by IBM. These
are the responsibility of the customer. Each SVC Storage Engine requires four fiber optic cables.
Fiber optic cables may be optionally ordered with the SVC Storage Engines by feature number.
Software requirements
The SVC Storage Engines require that SVC Storage Software V4.2 (5639-VC4), or later, be ordered at
the same time the initial order for the engines of a cluster is placed.
The software can be ordered via the AAS ordering system or the Passport Advantage system. The
appropriate hardware feature (#0017 for Passport Advantage, #0018 for AAS) must be included in the
hardware order for the initial engine to be installed at a customer location, that indicates the
desired fulfillment system. For subsequent clusters for the same customer location, feature number
0019 should be indicated on the order. Only one software order and license is required for each
customer location.
For additional details, refer to Software Announcement
207-105
, dated May 22, 2007.
Master Console — Software (#4002) requirements:
This feature requires a customer-supplied server operating with the following software:
-
Antivirus software (not required, but strongly recommended)
-
Microsoft Windows Internet Explorer with the most recent Service Pack
-
Microsoft Windows operating system
-
Microsoft Windows 2000 Server Edition with Service Pack 4, or later
-
Microsoft Windows Server 2003 Standard Edition
-
Microsoft Windows Server 2003 Enterprise Edition
Limitations:
The IBM System Storage SAN Volume Controller Solution is designed to support up to 2 petabytes
(PB) of storage. The maximum number of SVC Storage Engines supported in an SAN Volume Controller
cluster is eight.
For limitations of the IBM System Storage SAN Volume Controller Solution, imposed by the SVC Storage
Software, refer to Software Announcement
207-105
, dated May 22, 2007.
Additional limitations and configuration guidelines may apply, as documented in the master console
README file, furnished publications for this product, or as listed under Configuration Requirements
and Guidelines at
Planning information
Customer responsibilities:
One 220 V power source is required for each UPS feature. Use of separate, independent circuits
for the power sources for each node of a node pair is recommended to enhance redundancy within the
system.
Redundant AC Power (#8300)
Each of the two power sources are required to be 200-240 V, minimum 5 amp, 50/60 Hz, single phase,
and to have IEC320-C19 type outlets.
Each input circuit for the Redundant AC Power switch must be protected by a circuit breaker with
maximum rating of 16 amps. Where the Redundant AC Power switch is used to supply a single UPS, a
circuit breaker with a minimum rating of 5 amps is required; if two UPSs are being powered then a
breaker with a minimum rating of 7 amps is required.
SVC engine removal (#3905)
The SVC engine removal feature should be considered if the engines being ordered will be installed
as replacements for currently installed engines. This feature allows the IBM Customer Engineer to
physically remove the old engine from its rack.

Financing organization or visit
IBM Global Financing offerings are provided through IBM Credit LLC in the
United States, and other IBM subsidiaries and divisions worldwide to
qualified commercial and government customers. Rates are based on a
customer's credit rating, financing terms, offering type, equipment type,
and options, and may vary by country. Other restrictions may apply.
Rates and offerings are subject to change, extension, or withdrawal
without notice. Financing solutions from IBM Global Financing can help
you stretch your budget and affordably acquire the new product. But
beyond the initial acquisition, our end-to-end approach to IT management
can also help keep your technologies current, reduce costs, minimize
risk, and preserve your ability to make flexible equipment decisions
throughout the entire technology life cycle. For more financing
