PowerFlex rack has a base configuration that is a minimum set of PowerFlex storage-only nodes and fixed network resources.
Within the base configuration, you can customize the following hardware aspects:
Hardware | Minimum set |
Network |
|
Storage | At least four PowerFlex storage-only nodes are required. However, Dell Technologies recommends using at least six nodes to build a PowerFlex storage pool. If storage compression is active, a minimum of two NVDIMM components per PowerFlex node are required. A recommendation is made according to the system sizing calculation. |
Management | Three PowerFlex management controller nodes with high availability. |
