M2800 Sales Scenario
• Problem: 10 TB (compressed) to back up on a rack mounted SAN in 8 hours
• Truth Assumptions: – All speeds are theoretical maximum’s that the SAN architecture is
capable of
– SAN backbone is either 1 GB, 2 GB, or 4 GB
• Solution: M2800 w/ 5 LTO-2 FC Drives, 1 PSU, & Rack Mount Hardware Kit
• 1 LTO-2 drive compressed can write 252 GB/Hr
• 252 GB/Hr x 8 hours = 2,016 GB/Hr (~2 TB)
• 10,000 GB (10 TB) / 2,016 GB (~2 TB) = ~5 drives (4.96)
• Remember: IF this was SCSI, a 160 MB/sec SCSI bus is required for every two LTO-1 or -2 drives on the SCSI card
M2800 Presentation | 10-2004 | PM | Tandberg Data Sales
• What it is not– a big, expensive, enterprise-class
“box” • What it is

M2800 Presentation | 10-2004 | PM | Tandberg Data Sales
M2800: Summary
• The BEST LTO library for …
• customers who need more than 2 LTO drives in a library!
• customers who need 40 or more slots for LTO media!
• customers who need 2 or more small libraries!
Partitioning in the M2800
February 6, 2004
M2800 Presentation | 10-2004 | PM | Tandberg Data Sales
What is Partitioning?
• Partitioning is a method of dividing the library’s physical resources into separate, independent entities
• The process of creating “Virtual Libraries” that are assigned exclusive use of a consecutive block of cartridge slots & one or more tape drives
• Partitions operate independently, sharing only the E/E port and the robot
• Partitioning can mix LTO drive generations, and drive & library interfaces all at the same time
M2800 Presentation | 10-2004 | PM | Tandberg Data Sales
Partitioning vs. SAN
• Partitioning allows sharing of the library and its resources
• Servers connected to partitions have access to the library, but only the drives and tape slots assigned to that partition
• SCSI partitioning (1-4) requires an additional Tandberg library SCSI interface card(s) to implement
– Each SCSI partition requires its own SCSI interface card, 1:1 ratio, 4 SCSI cards maximum
• SAN allows sharing of the library and its resources
• All servers on the SAN can have access to the same library and all of its contents, through the use of a SAN storage software agent
• SAN requires a larger financial commitment to implement
• SAN partitioning (1-8) only requires a single Tandberg library FC interface card
– 1:1-8 ratio, 1 FC card maximum
M2800 Presentation | 10-2004 | PM | Tandberg Data Sales
Partition Implementation
• Each partition requires a
consecutive block of cartridge slots
and at least one drive to use
• The M2800 library features options
for supporting up to 4 SCSI
partitions and 8 fibre channel
partitions
– This is not a simultaneous
feature with 4 SCSI libraries & 8
FC libraries
M2800 Presentation | 10-2004 | PM | Tandberg Data Sales
SCSI Partitioning Setup, 2 Partitions
• Partition 1 (shown in blue) consists of SCSI interface card 1 and drives 7 & 8.
• Partition 2 (shown in red) consists of SCSI card 2 and drives 1 through 6.
• Even though partitioning is in effect, two drives per 160 MB/sec SCSI LVD bus is required.
• 1 SCSI Library interface for each Partition, this example requires 2 SCSI Interface Cards
M2800 Presentation | 10-2004 | PM | Tandberg Data Sales
Partitioning Example with E/E Port installed, 4 Partitions
• 4 Partitions, 4 Virtual libraries
– Lib1: Slots 1 - 20 & Drives 1 & 2
– Lib2: Slots 21 - 64 - Drives 3 - 5
– Lib3: Slots 65 - 122 - Drives 6 & 7
– Lib4: - Slot 123 - 143 - Drive 8
• The parts shared by all libraries are
colored in red:
– Calibration block
– Entry/Exit Port (E/E Port)
– Robot
M2800 Presentation | 10-2004 | PM | Tandberg Data Sales
Fibre Partitioning Setup
Point to point or Switched Fabric example:
• With a fibre interface card installed in the library, cable the interface card directly to the Fibre HBA or switch
• With fibre drives installed cable directly to the HBA(s) or switch
• Specify the partitions through the library “partition” menu selecting different logical units (LUN’s) for each partition
• A maximum of 8 logical fibre partitions are available using 8 drives and 1 fibre channel interface card
M2800 Partitioning FAQ
Frequently asked questions regarding partitioning of the M2800 library
M2800 Presentation | 10-2004 | PM | Tandberg Data Sales
Why would I need partitioning?
• Need for backing up separate servers or workstations where network backups are not sufficient or possible
• Need for separation of “House” data within the same library– Operations– Accounting– Engineering– IT– Human Resources
• Need to use different backup applications
• Need to backup SCSI servers and Fibre Channel SAN
• Any other reason that would require the purchase of two separate libraries that would be used in close proximity to each other
M2800 Presentation | 10-2004 | PM | Tandberg Data Sales
M2800 Partitioning FAQ
• Can I use the E/E port with all partitions?
• The E/E port is a common part for all libraries, & virtual libraries will have access to
it:
• What happens if more than one library is trying to access the E/E port at the same
time ?
• If one partition is using the E/E port, other requests to use the E/E port will return a
SCSI busy status; depending upon the specific backup application program the
command may be re-tried
• Can each partition have a different emulation mode?
• Yes. Each partition is independent from another and can either run in X80 or X200
emulation mode, or native mode
• Does the library have to be partitioned equally?
• No, it is not necessary to partition the library equally. As long as the partitions
consist of a consecutive block of cartridge slots and at least one drive or
consecutive block of drives, the partition is valid. For example, one partition can
consist of slots 1-142 & drives 1-7, while the other partition is slot 143 and drive 8
M2800 Presentation | 10-2004 | PM | Tandberg Data Sales
• What happens if multiple software applications send move
requests to their partitions at roughly the same time?
• The robot manages move requests in a FIFO (First in First
out) mode. The First SCSI move request will be the first to
complete
• Simple commands such as moving tapes, loading drives, etc.
are quickly completed and will not cause a software
application to time-out, even if they are fourth in the queue:
• However depending on the specific software, commands that
