DLm8500 with DD Physical Planning Overview

This section provides an overview of the physical equipment in a single-rack DLm8500
and a multi-rack DLm8500.

DLm8500 Single Rack Solution for Data Domain configuration

This section provides an overview of single rack solution for data domain
configuration.

A DLm8500 Single Rack Solution configuration is composed of one rack containing:

l

1 or 2 VTEs

l

1 GbE or 2 1 GbE switches

l

1 GbE or 2 10 GbE switches

l

One Data Domain (DD) (DD6300, DD6800 single or HA, DD9300 single or HA,
9800 single or HA)

Note:

 Despite the differences in weight, the physical dimensions of all the cabinets

are the same.

The following images show:

l

A DLm8500 Single Rack Solution with one DD9800, one DS60 enclosure and one
of each switch type

l

A DLm8500 Single Rack HA Solution with two DD9800 controllers, two DS60
enclosures and two of each switch types
