Cache memory
The Virtual Storage Platform can be configured with up to 256 GB of cache
memory per controller chassis (512 GB for a two-module system). Each
controller chassis can contain from two to eight cache memory adapter
boards. Each board contains from 8 GB to 32 GB.
Cache memory adapter boards are installed in pairs and work together to
provide cache and shared memory for the system. Each pair is called a
cluster. From one to four cache clusters can be installed in a controller
chassis. In addition to the memory on the cache boards, 4 GB of cache
memory is also located on each Virtual Storage Director (microprocessor)
board. See the following illustration.
