The configurations documented in this guide are based on tests conducted in the Dell Technologies Safety & 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 products can be matched to a customer's requirements.
- Recommend an Isilon 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.
