Overview |
The IBM System Storage N7600 storage controller includes the Model A10, a single-node base unit, and the Model A20, an active/active dual-node base unit. Both models are designed to provide fast data access, simultaneous multiprotocol support, expandability, upgradeability, and low maintenance requirements.
The two models of the N7600 feature:
- Support of enterprise customers requiring Network Attached Storage (NAS), with Fibre Channel (FC), or Internet Small Computer System Interface (iSCSI) connectivity
- 672 (Model A10), 840 (Model A20) disk drives support regardless of physical capacity
- Attachment of both FC and Serial Advanced Technology Attachment (SATA) disk expansion units
- 16 GB (per node) of DDR-333 memory
- 512 MB (per node) of non-volatile random access memory
- Eight backend FC loops, per node, (four per node, native, plus four optional using FC HBA features)
- Upgrade capability from Model A10 to Model A20
These N series models are designed to provide fast data access, simultaneous multiprotocol support, expandability, upgradeability, and low maintenance requirements. Additional functions, such as snapshot, compliance, mirroring, and business continuance capability, are available through optional licensed functions.
The N7600 storage controller supports both the EXN1000 SATA storage expansion unit and the EXN2000
Fibre Channel storage expansion unit. At least one storage expansion unit must be attached to the
N7600. A maximum of 60 storage expansion units may be attached. The EXN1000 storage expansion unit
can be configured with four to 14 disk drives of 250 GB, 320 GB, or 500 GB physical capacity. The
EXN2000 storage expansion unit can be configured with five to 14 disk drives of 72 GB, 144 GB, or
300 GB physical storage capacity. EXN1000 SATA storage expansion units and EXN2000 FC storage
expansion units may not share the same Fibre Channel loop.

Description |
The IBM System Storage N7600 storage controllers are designed to interoperate with products capable of data transmission in the industry-standard iSCSI, CIFS, FCP and NFS protocols. These include the IBM System p, IBM System i (NFS only), IBM System x, and IBM System z (NFS only) servers. The N7600 storage controllers consist of the Model A10 and Model A20, and associated software.
The Model A10 is designed to provide a single-node storage controller with iSCSI support, and NFS, CIFS, and FCP support via optional features. The N7600 is a 6U storage controller that must be mounted in a standard 19-inch rack. The N7600 storage controller does not include storage in the base chassis. The base chassis includes:
- Two AMD 2.6 GHz Opteron processors
- 16 GB of DDR-333 memory
- 512 MB of non-volatile random access memory (NVRAM)
- Six integrated Gigabit Ethernet RJ45 ports
- Eight integrated 2 Gbps Fibre Channel ports
- Dual redundant hot-plug integrated power supplies and cooling fans
- Three PCI-X expansion slots for additional FC HBAs or Gigabit Ethernet (NICs)
- Five PCIe expansion slots
- One serial console port
The maximum number of additional expansion adapters is eight. One expansion slot is used for the standard (included with the N7600) 512 MB NVRAM adapter card. The Model A10 can be upgraded to a maximum of eight multipath (loop A and loop B) FC loops (six 2-Gbps FC ports) via the addition of four optional FC HBAs for Disk Attachment (feature number 1014). The eight loops will support a maximum of 672 total disk drives. The Model A10 can be upgraded to a maximum of 14 Gigabit Ethernet ports via the addition of two optional quad-port copper Gigabit (NICs) (feature number 1009). The Model A10 may be upgraded to a Model A20. The upgrade from a Model A10 to a Model A20 is a disruptive upgrade.
The Model A20 is designed to provide identical function as the N7600 Model A10, but with the addition of a second processing node and the Clustered Failover (CFO) licensed function. The Model A20 also supports a maximum of 840 drives, 32 GB of DDR-333 memory, and eight backend Fiber Channel loops. The Model A20 consists of four processors that are designed to provide failover and failback function, helping improve overall availability. For the Model A20, each node is a 6U rack-mountable storage controller. Therefore, the Model A20 occupies a total of 12U of rack space.
The Model A20 includes:
- Four AMD 2.6 GHz Opteron processors
- 32 GB of DDR-333 memory
- 1 GB of NVRAM
- 12 integrated Gigabit Ethernet RJ45 ports
- 16 integrated 2 Gbps FC ports
- Dual redundant hot-plug integrated power supplies and cooling fans
- Six PCI-X expansion slots for additional FC HBAs or Gigabit Ethernet NICs
- 10 PCIe expansion slots
- Two serial console ports
For the Model A20, the maximum number of additional expansion adapters is ten. The Model A20 can be upgraded to a maximum of 10 multipath (loop A and loop B) FC loops (20 2-Gbps FC ports) via the addition of 2 optional FC HBAs for Disk Attachment (feature number 1014). The Model A20 can up upgraded to a maximum of 20 Gigabit Ethernet ports via the addition of four optional quad-port copper Gigabit Ethernet NICs (feature number 1009).
The physical proximity of the two processing nodes within a Model A20 (with respect to each other) is determined by which Infiniband cluster interconnect cables are ordered (feature numbers 1037, 1038, 1039, 1040, and 1041). Optical cables, #1040 and #1041, also require feature number 1042.
The N7600 storage controller Models A10 and A20 require at least one storage expansion unit, either an EXN1000 or an EXN2000. The EXN1000 storage expansion unit provides a 3U rack-mountable disk enclosure containing four and up to a maximum of 14, serial advanced technology attachment (SATA) disk drives, either in 250 GB or 500 GB physical capacities. The EXN2000 storage expansion unit provides a 3U rack-mountable disk enclosure containing 5 and up to a maximum of 14, FC disk drives. The EXN2000 supports the following FC disk drive speeds and capacities:
- 15,000 revolutions per minute (15K RPM) in 72 GB and 144 GB capacities
- 10,000 revolutions per minute (10K RPM) in 72 GB, 144 GB, and 300 GB capacities
Each EXNx000 storage expansion unit contains a maximum of 14 disk drives, all of a particular type (rotational speed and capacity). For the initial order of the IBM System Storage N7600, you may not include EXNx000 storage expansion units containing more than two types (rotational speed and capacity) of disk drives.
The maximum raw storage capacity of the N7600 system is determined only by the number of disk drives supported. The N7600 Model A10 supports 672 hard drive spindles; Model A20 supports 840 (regardless of capacity).
The following table describes the maximum supported total physical storage capacity for the N7600 Model A10:
Maximum Maximum Maximum Disk Disk drive storage disk physical enclosure capacity enclosures drives capacity EXN1000 250 GB SATA disk drives 48 672 168.00 TB EXN1000 500 GB SATA disk drives 48 672 336.00 TB EXN2000 72 GB FC disk drives 48 672 48.38 TB EXN2000 144 GB FC disk drives 48 672 96.76 TB EXN2000 300 GB FC disk drives 48 672 201.60 TB
The following table describes the maximum supported total physical storage capacity for the N7600 Model A20:
Maximum Maximum Maximum Disk Disk drive storage disk physical enclosure capacity enclosures drives capacity EXN1000 250 GB SATA disk drives 60 840 210.00 TB EXN1000 500 GB SATA disk drives 60 840 420.00 TB EXN2000 72 GB FC disk drives 60 840 60.48 TB EXN2000 144 GB FC disk drives 60 840 120.96 TB EXN2000 300 GB FC disk drives 60 840 252.00 TB
EXN1000 SATA storage expansion units and EXN2000 FC storage expansion units must not share a Fibre Channel loop. A maximum of six storage expansion units (EXN1000 or EXN2000) are supported on a single Fibre Channel loop.
