Best Practices for the Sun StorEdge
3320 SCSI Array and Sun StorEdge
3310 SCSI Array
This manual complements the
Sun StorEdge 3000 Family Installation, Operation, and
Service Manual
for these products, collectively known as Sun StorEdge 3000 Family
SCSI arrays. These arrays are ideal for small and large storage solutions for entry-
level server environments such as file servers, application servers, email servers,
database servers, and consolidation servers.
The Sun StorEdge 3320 SCSI array is a next-generation Ultra320 SCSI storage system
designed to provide direct-attached storage (DAS) to entry-level servers, or a JBOD
(an array with disks and no controller), designed to provide a high-performance,
storage device that contains up to twelve disk drives with SCSI connectivity to the
data host.
The Sun StorEdge 3310 SCSI array is an earlier Ultra160 version of the product that
is no longer offered but is still supported.
Sun StorEdge 3000 Family SCSI arrays offer many performance and reliability,
availability and serviceability (RAS) features using familiar SCSI technology, and can
be used as-is or tailored to fit your needs.
Examples of customization opportunities include choosing RAID protection levels,
selecting SCSI bus configurations, adding more disks and adding disk enclosures. A
large number of potential storage solutions exist between the small and large
recommendations. Choosing a configuration that fits within this range will provide
the best results.
If you assign an IP address to an array in order to manage it out-of-band, for security
reasons it is preferable that the IP address be on a private network, rather than a
publicly routable network.
