  1. Hybrid Aggregates aka “Flash Pools”

  2. What is is • An Aggregate comprised of HDs&SSDs • Dedicated ssd read & write cache/buffer • Fast. ;) • Available in 8.1

  3. Benefits • Get more out of HDD. By absorbing costly I/O that would have gone to HDD, the drives are open for more reads or writes. This translates into business value in the following ways: • Change from performance HDDs to capacity HDDs (for example, SAS to SATA) • Reduce drive counts to satisfy workload requirements • Provide a prepopulated read cache. The data in the Flash Pool write cache is also available for reads, further reducing HDD operations.

  4. Creating a flash pool • aggr create hybrid_aggr 16 • aggr options hybrid_aggrhybrid_enabledon • aggr add hybrid_aggr -T SSD 6@100

  5. Read Caching policies • priority hybrid-cache set vol1 read-cache=meta (metadata only) • priority hybrid-cache set vol1 read-cache=random-read (default, don’t change) • priority hybrid-cache set vol1 read-cache=random-read-write (blocks added to cache for writes are immediately availble, but can be duplicated)

  6. Write Caching Policies • priority hybrid-cache set vol1 write-cache=random-write • priority hybrid-cache set vol1 write-cache=none

  7.
