  1. EMC SRM Suite Storage Resource Management Francisco Tarasuk ASD Sales

  2. The Elevator Pitch The Storage Resource Management Suite provides comprehensive monitoring, reporting, and analysis for heterogeneous storage environments. It enables customers to visualize applications to storage dependencies, analyze configurations and capacity growth, and optimize the environment to improve return on investment.

  3. Storage and Compute (physical or virtual) Allocated Storage Performance Metrics CapacityMetrics

  4. Create Custom Dashboards & Reports Across Heterogeneous Environments to Assure Storage Services

  5. Chargeback/Showback/Capacity Planning

  6. VNX

  7. Isilon • Main Reports List: • Cluster CPU Usage • Cluster Throughput • Service Throughput • Iscsi • Smb, NFS • http, ftp • Nlm • Disk IO • Connected Users • Capacity Planning and Trending • Inventory • Dashboard and Reports • Polled Metrics: • Filesystems: Availability, Used, Total • Disks: Read/Write KB/s • Protocols: Latency Min/Avg/Max, KB/S read and Write, IOPS • CPU: Nice, Interupt, system, user • System: Serial, Version, Users, • … Supported Models/Polling: All Isilon version 5.X Snmp access configured

  8. Get Visibility From Anywhere & Any Device

  9. Use Case 1: Storage Capacity Reporting I want to understand what I have across all my heterogeneous arrays, how much is used, and when I’ll need to buy more Related use cases: I’m running out of capacity of a given Service Level. Which pools are closest to running out of space? I need to provision a LUN of a given type. (Service Level, size, array, etc.) Planning for Provisioning: Where do I have space and band-width available for a new provisioning request? What type of storage do I need to add?  Is there any available? (% full, oversubscribed, Wks Until Full) What’s available?

  10. Storage ResourceManagement Suite BronzeThin Pool is estimated to run out of capacity on Nov. 22, 2017 Use Case – Managing Thin Pool Capacity These pools have exceeded critical threshholds PROBLEM Identifying when thin pools will run out of storage SOLUTION SRM Suite tracks thin pool consumption & predicts when new capacity will be needed VALUE Lower CAPEX and OPEX BronzeThin pool on array 287 requires SATA drives in a RAID 5 (3+1) configuration Cabinet Pool 1 on array 1071 requires 500GB SAS drives

  11. Use Case 2: Optimizing Your Investment • How much is it costing my organization to run each application? Related use cases: Can I save money by moving some of my applications to lower-cost storage without violating my SLAs? Do I have pockets of underutilized resources? (e.g. pool is at subscription rate but nearly empty) How much did we save by migrating to thin? Am I wasting money by over-replicating? And therefore how much more can we expect to save next time?

  12. Distribute the Report Monthly Create a multi-tenant portal or schedule and email the reports

  13. Use Case 3: Configuration Compliance 50% of all outages are caused by configuration errors. Is this <problem> due to a configuration issue? Related use cases: I’m planning an array migration (or upgrading my array firmware). Identify a critical app that is at risk because it was vMotioned to a single-path ESX Are all the attached switches and hosts up to the right driver/firmware levels?

  14. Unified SLA Reports From Heterogeneous Sources All relationships mapped from the host to the array vCenter Servers Arrays Allocated Storage Capacity Metrics Performance Metrics One pane of glass Host Unification (Physical Windows/Unix, Virtual)

  15. Analyze Application Storage Related Issues • Overview of Oracle application and infrastructure uptime • Drill into application for details and status • Additional application report packs available: • Microsoft SQL Server • MySQL • IBM DB2 • Websphere

  16. Analyze Application Storage Related Issues • Examine application hosts • Datastore Usage • Disk Rate • CPU Usage • Memory • Identify application host to investigate further • Data path • Configuration policy • Virtual to Physical host

  17. Identify SLA Issues Identify SLA issues requiring immediate investigation Identify SLAs at risk
