Overview of these FibreCAT Storage units:

Flexible Expansion

When the internal hard drive storage capacity of your PRIMERGY server nears its limits, the external PRIMERGY SX40 storage subsystem easily extends its capacity to meet your growing business needs. This storage subsystem incorporates up to 12 SAS or S-ATA hard drives which offer a total maximum capacity of 9 TB in a compact 2U chassis.

 Using a SAS RAID controller in the PRIMERGY server, the drives in the FibreCAT SX40 can be configured in to a wide variety of RAID array types. Additionally, up to 3 FibreCAT SX40 storage subsystems can be cascaded together via the second SAS x4 link, permitting expansion to a maximum of 27 TB of external hard drive capacity.

Anytime Availability

In the FibreCAT SX40 storage subsystem, the active components (hot-plug hard drives and hot-plug power supply modules) can be replaced while the server is running. The redundant hot-plug power supply units can be connected with phase redundancy via separate power lines. Optimum and secure cooling of the hard drives is ensured by 2 independent fans in each power supply unit.

The FibreCAT SX40 storage subsystem provides information on its operating status and the most important internal modules, as well as hard drives and power supplies via LED displays on the front panel.

Easy to Manage

The FibreCAT SX40 is designed to be easy to manage throughout its entire lifecycle. For easy RAID array setup and configuration, Fujitsu offers Server View RAID. This tool provides a uniform management interface for all PRIMERGY RAID solutions. The FibreCAT SX40 storage subsystem has powerful remote monitoring capabilities that alert to any potential hardware issue.

This information is fully integrated into the PRIMERGY Server View Suite—the PRIMERGY server management platform. Through the PRIMERGY Server View Suite the administrator can monitor a variety of aspects of the storage subsystem’s health. Sensors monitor the temperature of the entire subsystem as well as subcomponents such as hard drives, power supply units, the integrated fans and the I/O module.

Power status of redundant power supplies and cooling fans are also monitored. Most importantly, the S.M.A.R.T. (Self-Monitoring, Analysis and Reporting Technology) standard enables the hard drives to autonomously check their operating status and report potential errors in proactively. These powerful capabilities help you solve problems before they cause downtime.
