The connections of a storage server that are used equals the data streams plus one for each LSU
polling. A backup job may generate more than one data stream if the data can be read in parallel. For
example, a policy that is backing up A, B, C, and D drives of a Windows system can generate four data
streams in parallel.
Adding a Storage Server
Add a storage server to present the storage capacity of the DXi4700 as LSUs that are compatible with
backup applications that support OST. You can add up to 100 storage servers. When adding a storage
server, you must also add an LSU to the storage server. (For more information about LSUs, see
.)
Note:
Data on storage servers is always deduplicated.
