Figure 17 Storage management process example
Physical storage elements
The lowest level of storage management occurs at the physical drive level. Minimally, choosing the best
disk carving strategy includes the following policies:
•
Analyze current corporate and departmental structure.
•
Analyze the current
fi
le server structure and environment.
•
Plan properly to ensure the best con
fi
guration and use of storage.
• Determine the desired priority of fault tolerance, performance, and storage capacity.
• Use the determined priority of system characteristics to determine the optimal striping policy
and RAID level.
•
Include the appropriate number of physical drives in the arrays to create logical storage elements
of desired sizes.
