The configurations documented in this guide are based on tests conducted in the Dell EMC Safety and Security Lab and actual production implementations.
These are the key objectives of this solution:
- Measure the sizing needs for specific system requirements so that an implementation can be correctly sized and the appropriate Dell EMC products can be matched to a customer's requirements.
- Recommend an Isilon SMB configuration.
- Calculate node maximum bandwidths.
- Recommend disk drive types.
- Confirm the previous test results with lab controlled failures, such as disk rebuilds, node removals, and network path failures.
