the MSDP data, the amount of usable storage space may fluctuate, depending on
how much storage space the MSDP data pool presently uses.
See “Moving the MSDP partition from a base disk to an expansion disk for optimum
performance” on page 125.
Spanning MSDP data across a 5250 Appliance and a storage shelf is not
recommended.

Moving the MSDP partition from a base disk to an
expansion disk for optimum performance
If all or a part of your Media Server Deduplication Pool (MSDP) partition resides on
the appliance base unit (base disk), it is recommended that you move the MSDP
partition to an expansion disk. This recommendation applies to 52xx appliances
and is needed for optimum performance.
The following procedures explain how to move the MSDP partition from a base disk
to an expansion disk. The base disk resides on the appliance base unit. The
expansion disk resides on a storage shelf that is attached to the appliance. A 5230,
5240 and 5250 appliance can have up to four expansion disks.
Consider the following scenarios:
■
Scenario 1 - The MSDP and AdvancedDisk partitions are configured on the
base disk. The expansion units are physically attached to the appliance but
have not been added yet.
■
Scenario 2 - The MSDP partition exists on the base disk. The expansion units
are configured and partitions exist on them.
Select the scenario that applies to you and follow the appropriate procedure outlined
below.
