FTRP
For RAID groups with the following conditions, the Eco-mode schedule can be set but the disks motor cannot be
stopped or the power supply cannot be turned off:
•
SDPVs are registered
•
ODX Buffer volumes are registered
If disk access occurs while the disk motor is stopped, the disk is immediately spun up and can be accessed within
one to five minutes.
The Eco-mode function can be used with the following methods:
•
Schedule control
Controls the disk motors by configuring the Eco-mode schedule on ETERNUS Web GUI or ETERNUS CLI. The op-
eration time schedule settings/management is performed for each RAID group and TPP.
•
External application control (software interaction control)
Disk motor is controlled for each RAID group on ETERNUS SF Software.
The disk motors are controlled by interacting with applications installed on the server side and responding to
instructions from the applications. Applications which can be interacted with are as follows:
-
ETERNUS SF Storage Cruiser
-
ETERNUS SF AdvancedCopy Manager
The following hierarchical storage management software can be also linked with Eco-mode.
When using the Eco-mode function with these products, an Eco-mode disk operating schedule does not need to
be set. A drive in a stopped condition starts running when it is accessed.

IBM Tivoli Storage Manager HSM for Windows
