Chapter 1  
Hardware Configurations  
This chapter explains hardware configurations for the ETERNUS DX Disk storage system.  
1.1  
Controller Enclosure  
This section explains the main components in the controller enclosure.  
The controller enclosure contains drives installed in the front, and controllers and power supply units in the  
rear.  
Since the power supply units are redundant, operations can continue even if one of them fails. There are two  
models: a single-controller type and a dual-controller type. For a dual-controller type, operations can continue  
even if one of the controllers fails.  
• The single-controller type differs from the dual-controller type by the following features:  
- The controller and I/O module are not duplicated.  
- Hot maintenance or swapping of the controller and I/O module is not possible.  
- Concurrent firmware loading or update of the controller firmware and I/O module firmware is not  
possible.  
- Multipath connection to a single server is not available.  
- The Thin Provisioning function cannot be used.  
- The Flexible Tier function cannot be used.  
• Fujitsu recommends that the dual-controller types, in which the controller and I/O module are duplicated,  
be used in a system where a high level of reliability is required.

Controllers  
The controller contains a CPU, cache memory, System Capacitor Unit (SCU), non-volatile memory, host  
interfaces, drive interface ports, and LAN ports. The controller controls all operations in the ETERNUS DX Disk  
storage system.  
■ CPU  
A single core processor is installed.  
■ Cache memory  
Cache memory enables high speed processing by storing frequently used data.  
The cache memory capacity for each controller is 2GB for the ETERNUS DX80 S2 and 4GB for the ETERNUS DX90  
S2.

• FC and iSCSI host interfaces can be used as remote interfaces for remote connections by changing the port  
mode. The port mode can be set from ETERNUS Web GUI or ETERNUS CLI.  
• There are two types of iSCSI 10Gbit/s and FCoE host interfaces; an interface type with SFP+ modules (LC  
connector for an FC cable connection) and an interface type without SFP+ modules (SPF+ connector for a  
Copper Twinax cable connection).  
• For SFP+ modules, Short Wave Length (SWL) or Long Wave Length (LWL) types can be installed in  
16Gbit/s FC interfaces. The default modules that are installed in 16Gbit/s FC interfaces are SWL type SFP+  
modules. To install LWL type SFP+ modules, purchase the Long wave SFP+ modules for the DX80 S2/DX90  
S2 separately.

■ SCU  
A System Capacitor Unit (SCU) is installed in a controller as a backup power source in case of power outage.  
The SCU is charged from an external power source while the ETERNUS DX Disk storage system is running nor-  
mally. If a power failure is detected, data in the cache memory is saved to the non-volatile memory in the con-  
troller using the SCU. There is no limit to the post-failure data retention time.  
■ PWC ports  
A PWC port is installed in a controller.  
The PWC port is used to connect a power synchronized unit to perform power synchronization.  
The following table shows the PWC port specifications.

Drive Enclosures  
This section explains the main components in the drive enclosure.  
The drive enclosure contains drives installed in the front, and I/O modules and power supply units in the rear.  
Up to 24 drives can be installed in a 2.5" type drive enclosure. Up to 12 drives can be installed in a 3.5" type  
drive enclosure.  
Since the power supply units are redundant, operations can continue even if one of them fails.  
When a drive enclosure is connected, a DE-ID (drive enclosure number) is automatically allocated.

The power supply unit transforms input AC power from a power socket to DC power and supplies power to each  
component. Two power supply units are installed in each drive enclosure.  
Each power supply unit contains fans.  
1.3  
Enclosure Connection Path  
For a dual-controller type, a controller enclosure (CE) is connected to drive enclosures (DE) with multiple  
paths.  
A drive enclosure has two independent drive interface ports. Path redundancy is maintained by connecting  
the drive enclosure to two controllers directly. This configuration allows operation to continue even if one of  
the connection paths fails.  
Up to nine drive enclosures can be connected to a controller enclosure as shown in the figures below.

Installation Environment  
Sufficient consideration of the installation environment should be taken to ensure proper use of the ETERNUS  
DX Disk storage system. Using the ETERNUS DX Disk storage system in an environment that does not satisfy  
the installation environment requirements may cause a failure to occur with the ETERNUS DX Disk storage  
system.  
2.5.1  
Air Conditioning  
It is important to consider the flows of cooling air (intake air) and exhaust air for the installation location. The  
temperature in some ETERNUS DX Disk storage systems may rise when exhaust air is taken in from other  
ETERNUS DX Disk storage systems. In addition, check other factors that might affect the usage environment  
temperature, such as the room size, whether other ETERNUS DX Disk storage systems are installed, and how  
many people are present in the room.  
When installing air conditioning, the ambient temperature should be considered.

Chapter 2 ETERNUS DX Disk Storage System Installation  
2.6 Outlet/Socket Specifications  
● Ambient temperature  
An ETERNUS DX Disk storage system is cooled by taking in air through the front intakes and pushing out  
the exhaust air through the rear of the ETERNUS DX Disk storage system. If the intake air temperature does  
not meet the ambient environment conditions, a temperature error occurs and the power of the ETERNUS  
DX Disk storage system is shut down.  
- Front intake air temperature  
Make sure that the front intake air temperature is between 10 and 40°C.  
- Rear exhaust air temperature  
For example, when the intake air temperature is 40°C, the exhaust air temperature is 50°C or higher.  
The necessary cooling capacity of air conditioning must be checked.  
Check the heat generation amount and the exhaust air amount that are listed in "2.1 Installation  
Specifications" (page 27) to cool the exhaust air from the ETERNUS DX Disk storage system.  
2.5.2  
2.5.3  
Earthquake Resistance  
Take the necessary measures (e.g. secure the rack to the floor or wall) to prevent a rack in which an ETERNUS  
DX Disk storage system is installed from falling down when earthquakes occur.  
Earthquake countermeasures vary depending on the installation location, the floor conditions, and the type  
of rack that is used. Contact your installation contractor for more details regarding earthquake  
countermeasure methods and how work should be conducted.  
Load Bearing Capacity for Floors  
Make sure that the following relationship between the load bearing capacity of the floor and the weight of  
the ETERNUS DX Disk storage system is maintained.  
(Load bearing capacity of the floor) > (ETERNUS DX Disk storage system weight ÷ Installation area that  
includes service areas)  
If the condition above is not satisfied, additional measures are required to ensure sufficient load bearing  
capacity. Contact your installation contractor for details about the necessary measures that must be taken.  
2.6  
Outlet/Socket Specifications  
Power can be supplied to the ETERNUS DX Disk storage system from two power sources because each  
enclosure has two power supply units.  
During normal operation, each of the power sources supplies half of the necessary power.  
When one of the power supply lines fails, all of the necessary power is supplied from only one power source.  
Using the same power supply condition for all of the power supply units is recommended so that different  
power supply conditions (such as whether power distribution units are used or not and input voltage) are not  
used for the ETERNUS DX Disk storage system.  
This section explains the power connection specifications of the ETERNUS DX Disk storage systems.

Specifications for Optional Power Supply Products  
This section explains the specifications of optional power cords and power related optional products.  
When using power distribution units, the number of outlets that are required to connect the controller  
enclosure and drive enclosures should be taken into consideration.  
In addition, make sure that the plug type of the power distribution unit fits the power socket when using an  
existing power socket. If the plug type does not fit the power socket, replace the socket.

Chapter 3  
Connections  
This chapter explains connections for the ETERNUS DX Disk storage system.  
3.1  
Host Connections  
FC, iSCSI, FCoE, and SAS are available as host interfaces. The server and the ETERNUS DX Disk storage system  
can be connected directly or via a switch.  
3.1.1  
Host Interfaces  
This section describes each host interface.  
■ FC (Fibre Channel)  
FC supports two connection topologies: Fibre Channel Arbitrated Loop (FC-AL) and Fabric. Direct connections  
and switch connections to servers are available.  
Two types of host interfaces with a maximum transfer speed of either 16Gbit/s or 8Gbit/s are available.  
When FC switches are used, zoning should be set for the FC switches to ensure the security of data.  
■ iSCSI  
Direct connections and switch connections to servers are available. Two types of host interfaces with a  
maximum transfer speed of either 10Gbit/s or 1Gbit/s are available.  
In order to maintain iSCSI performance, the iSCSI network should be physically separated from other types of  
networks (such as networks for Internet access and file transfers).  
• CHAP  
CHAP authentication can prevent unauthorized access. The following CHAP authentication methods are  
supported:  
- Unidirectional CHAP  
- Bidirectional CHAP

Chapter 3 Connections  
3.1 Host Connections  
• Virtual Local Area Network (VLAN tagging)  
The VLAN tagging function is supported. A tag (VLAN ID) can be used for each port.  
When the ETERNUS DX Disk storage system is connected to multiple servers, use a LAN switch that has  
the VLAN function and allocate a separate segment to each server so that security can be maintained.  
• Jumbo Frame  
Enabling Jumbo Frame makes data transfer more efficient by increasing the amount of data that can be  
transferred for each Frame.  
Table 3.1 Ethernet frame capacity (Jumbo Frame settings)  
Jumbo Frame settings  
Ethernet frame capacity  
Up to 9000 bytes  
Enabled  
Disabled  
Up to 1500 bytes  
• Confirm that the connected device supports Jumbo Frame before enabling Jumbo Frame.  
• Server-side CPU load can be reduced by using Jumbo Frame. However, I/O performance may be  
reduced by 10% to 30%.  
• Security Architecture for Internet Protocol (IPsec)  
The IPsec function is not supported. Connect the server using a LAN switch that has the IPsec function as  
required.  
• Internet Protocol  
IPv4 and IPv6 are supported.  
IPv6 is supported in firmware version V10L35 or later.  
■ FCoE  
Fabric is supported as a connection topology. The maximum transfer speed is 10Gbit/s. When using an FCoE  
interface, connect the ETERNUS DX Disk storage system to the FCoE switch. Direct connections to servers are  
not supported.  
• Perform zoning settings for FCoE switches.  
• When an FCoE interface is used for the HBA of the server, use FCoE for the host interface of the ETERNUS  
DX Disk storage system.

Chapter 3 Connections  
3.1 Host Connections  
■ SAS  
Simple, cost effective, and high performance network storage environment can be configured.  
Direct connections and switch connections to servers are available.  
The maximum transfer speed is 6Gbit/s.  
When SAS switches are used, zoning should be set for the SAS switches to ensure the security of data.  
3.1.2  
Host Connection Path  
This section explains the connection configuration between server Host Bus Adapters (HBAs) and ETERNUS DX  
Disk storage system host interface ports.  
■ Single path configuration  
A single path configuration connects the ETERNUS DX Disk storage system to a server via a single path.  
The server cannot access an ETERNUS DX Disk storage system when a component (such as a controller, HBA,  
switch, or cable) on the path has a problem. The system must be stopped during the replacement of failed  
components and controller firmware.  
In a single path connection configuration, the path failover and load balancing functions are not supported.  
A multipath connection configuration is recommended to maintain availability when a problem occurs.

■ Multipath configuration  
A multipath configuration connects the ETERNUS DX Disk storage system to a server via multiple paths  
(multipath). System reliability is improved due to the path redundancy. For multipath connections, driver  
software to control multipathing is required.  
If a path fails, access can continue by using the path failover function that switches access from the failed path  
to another path. The performance of the system can be improved by using the load balancing function to  
spread the access load over multiple paths.

• When configuring multipathing for reliability, make sure to configure a redundant connection for the  
controllers of the ETERNUS DX Disk storage system. Configure paths to connect to different controllers  
(CM#0 and CM#1). Combinations of host interface numbers (CA#0 and CA#1) in controllers do not need  
to be taken into consideration.  
• Paths from a single server should be separately connected to a different host interface in case of host  
interface failure.  
■ Cluster configuration  
When a server is duplicated in a cluster configuration and the ETERNUS DX Disk storage system is shared by  
multiple servers, software to control the cluster configuration is required.

Remote Connections  
An FC or iSCSI interface is available for a remote connection.  
For remote connections, different types of interfaces (FC, iSCSI 10Gbit/s, iSCSI 1Gbit/s) cannot exist together  
on a REC path (connection between a local ETERNUS DX Disk storage system and a remote ETERNUS DX Disk  
storage system).  
When different types of remote interfaces exist in the same ETERNUS DX Disk storage system, make sure to  
use the same type of interface for each REC path.  
For example, the following configuration is not supported because different types of interfaces (FC/iSCSI)  
exist together on a REC path.

■ LAN for operation management  
In an ETERNUS DX Disk storage system, the system administrator logs on to the ETERNUS DX Disk storage  
system via a LAN to set the RAID configuration, manage operations, and perform maintenance. The computer  
for operation management that is used for accessing the ETERNUS DX Disk storage system via ETERNUS Web  
GUI or ETERNUS CLI is called an administration terminal.  
In addition, the functions that are provided by the management/monitoring server on the LAN can be used.  
These functions include SNMP (device monitoring), SMTP (e-mail sending), NTP (time correction), syslog  
(event notification and audit log sending), RADIUS (user authentication), and KMIP(key management).  
■ LAN for remote support  
Various failures that occur in the ETERNUS DX Disk storage system are notified to the remote support center.  
Remote support connection can be separated from the LAN for operation management.  
3.4  
Power Supply Connection  
Connect the power cords (AC cables) of the ETERNUS DX Disk storage system to the power sockets, the UPS  
sockets, or the power control unit sockets.  
Refer to "2.6 Outlet/Socket Specifications" (page 37) for details about the types and the number of power  
outlets/sockets.  
Two power supply units (PSU#0 and PSU#1) are installed in each enclosure. Make sure that power cords are  
connected to both of the power supply units.

Input Power Supply Lines  
Multiple power supply facilities in the building or UPS units are recommended for power supply redundancy.  
When the ETERNUS DX Disk storage system power supply is redundantly configured, business can continue  
even if one of the power lines fails.  
Alternatively, optimal system design (including the server) may instead lead to the ETERNUS DX Disk storage  
system being configured with only a single power supply facility or UPS unit. Which configuration is selected  
will depend on system availability requirement considerations.

3.4 Power Supply Connection  
3.4.2  
UPS Connection  
It is recommended that an Uninterruptible Power Supply System (UPS) be used as the power supply source for  
the ETERNUS DX Disk storage system to cope with power outages and momentary voltage drops in the normal  
power supply.  
Note that when connecting an ETERNUS DX Disk storage system to a UPS with one power supply line, the total  
value of the power requirements for all the enclosures must not exceed the UPS output capacity.  
When one of the power supply lines fails for redundantly configured UPS units with two power supply lines, all  
of the power for the ETERNUS DX Disk storage system must be supplied from the other line. Select a UPS that  
can supply sufficient power so that the total value of the power requirements does not exceed the UPS output  
capacity in case only one power supply line is available.  
For details about the necessary UPS output capacity, refer to the specifications of the UPS that is used.  
A UPS must satisfy the following conditions:  
● Rating capacity  
Secure a sufficient rating capacity for the total value of the maximum power requirements for the  
enclosures that are to be installed.  
For the maximum power requirements of each enclosure, refer to "2.1 Installation Specifications" (page  
27).  
● Supply time  
The total time for the server to shut down and for the ETERNUS DX Disk storage system to power off  
(maximum of six minutes) must be taken into consideration for the power supply time of the battery.  
● Switching time during power failure  
The normal power supply must be switched to UPS output within 11ms after a power failure occurs.  
● Socket type  
If the power plug type and the socket type of the UPS do not match, it is necessary to equip the UPS (AC  
output) with an appropriate type of socket. Request a qualified electrician to perform the necessary work to  
make terminal block connections available.  
● Power supply configuration  
If a UPS is used, make sure that it supplies power to all the enclosures.  
Configurations where the controller enclosure is powered by the UPS while the drive enclosures are  
powered directly from AC are not supported.

Power Synchronized Connections  
This section describes connections to automatically control powering the ETERNUS DX Disk storage system on  
and off with a server.  
Do  
WARNING  
• In order to control powering the ETERNUS DX Disk storage system on and off  
with servers, the power control of the ETERNUS DX Disk storage system must  
be linked with all of the connected servers. If some of the servers are not  
linked, data errors may occur in these servers when the ETERNUS DX Disk  
storage system is turned off by using power control from the other linked  
servers.  
■ Power synchronized unit  
A power synchronized unit enables the ETERNUS DX Disk storage system to be powered on and off with a  
server. The power synchronized unit detects changes in the AC power output of a UPS unit that is connected to  
a server (server UPS unit) and automatically turns on and off the ETERNUS DX Disk storage system. In addition  
to server UPS units, units that control the AC socket power output can also be connected. When three or more  
servers are connected, power can be synchronized by adding an AC sensor unit.  
The power synchronized unit detects the AC power output of the target devices for power synchronization and  
commands the ETERNUS DX Disk storage system to synchronize the power with the target devices.  
When the power synchronized unit detects the AC power output of any server UPS unit, the power  
synchronized unit commands the ETERNUS DX Disk storage system to turn on.  
When the power synchronized unit does not detect AC power output in any of the server UPS units, the power  
synchronized unit commands the ETERNUS DX Disk storage system to turn off.  
The server UPS unit must have a function in the management software that controls the AC power output  
according to when the server powers on and off. The server UPS unit must have one unused outlet to connect  
to the power synchronized unit.

Rack and Optional Product Installation  
This chapter explains the requirements for installation of racks and the optional products for an ETERNUS DX  
Disk storage system.  
4.1  
Rack Installation Requirements  
This section explains the requirements for installing the ETERNUS DX Disk storage system in a 19-inch rack.  
4.1.1  
Placement in the Rack  
Note the following when installing the ETERNUS DX Disk storage system in the rack.  
• The center of gravity must be taken into consideration to prevent a rack from toppling over. Enclosures  
should generally be installed from bottom to top to lower the center of gravity and to ensure the safe use  
of racks.  
• Enclosures are installed in the following order (from bottom to top).  
Table 4.1 Enclosure installation order

1U/2U  
2U  
2U  
Install drive enclosures in order of DE-IDs (drive enclosure numbers)  
.
• When determining the rack-mounting layout, consider the placement of each enclosure and the power  
distribution unit in the rack and the length of each cable. For example, if the ETERNUS DX Disk storage  
system is installed at the top of a 1800mm rack, the surplus length of the power cord at the bottom of a  
rack should be about 2m.  
• If the storage system is installed at the bottom of a rack, a space for the surplus of cables may not be  
available in some racks, preventing the storage system from being pulled out when maintenance work is  
required.  
In this case, secure a space of 1U or more at the bottom when installing the storage system.  
• If drive enclosures are to be added in the future, securing sufficient space for power distribution units in  
the bottom of the rack is recommended.

Cable Connection  
■ Power supply connection  
It is recommended that the power cords (AC cables) of the enclosures are connected to the power distribution  
units that are installed in the same rack. Secure the necessary number of power outlets within the same rack  
to avoid connecting power cords to power outlets in different racks.  
It may be necessary to purchase additional power distribution units depending on the installation locations of  
enclosures.  
The length of the AC output cable that is supplied with the power distribution unit is 3m.

4.1 Rack Installation Requirements  
■ Connections between enclosures  
If enclosures are installed in multiple racks or are installed with space in the same rack, the QSFP cables  
(0.75m) that are included with the ETERNUS DX Disk storage system may be too short for connections  
between enclosures.  
In this case, use the Extension cable between enclosures. The length of the Extension cable between  
enclosures that is provided is 3m or 6m. Enclosures in different racks can be installed within this length.

4.2.2  
Non-Fujitsu Racks  
ETERNUS DX Disk storage systems are developed and their operation is guaranteed on the assumption that  
they are installed in Fujitsu 19-inch racks. Since the ETERNUS DX Disk storage system cannot be tested (for  
cooling and strength) in non-Fujitsu 19-inch racks, the operations of ETERNUS DX Disk storage systems cannot  
be guaranteed. Any problem that may occur by installing the ETERNUS DX Disk storage system in non-Fujitsu  
racks is not covered by the warranty.  
If the ETERNUS DX Disk storage system needs to be installed in a non-Fujitsu rack, the following conditions  
must be satisfied.  
■ Rack specifications  
Use the rack mount kit supplied with the product to install the ETERNUS DX Disk storage system in the rack.  
The rack specifications must satisfy the conditions listed below. For rack specifications, refer to the manual  
that is supplied with the rack that is used.  
• Pitch for mounting holes  
EIA Standard Universal pitch  
• Size for mounting holes  
The size must be 9mm or more.  
• Load bearing capacity  
The load bearing capacity must be equal to or larger than the total weight of the ETERNUS DX Disk storage  
system.  
• Unit installation area  
The dimensions of the area shown in Figure 4.4 must match the conditions described in Table 4.2.

Host Interfaces  
This section explains the installation rules for host interfaces.  
The following types of host interfaces (CA) are available:  
• FC 16Gbit/s (dual port type)  
• FC 8Gbit/s (dual port type)  
• iSCSI 10Gbit/s (dual port type)  
• iSCSI 10Gbit/s (dual port type, without SFP+ modules)  
• iSCSI 1Gbit/s (dual port type)  
• FCoE 10Gbit/s (dual port type)  
• FCoE 10Gbit/s (dual port type, without SFP+ modules)  
• SAS 6Gbit/s (dual port type)  
Different types of interfaces can be mixed for the same ETERNUS DX Disk storage system.  
Install the host interfaces for CA#0 first, and then CA#1 according to Table 4.3.  
For a dual-controller type, the configuration is the same for Controller 0 (CM#0) and Controller 1 (CM#1).  
The following table shows the priority order of host interface installation.
