ThinkSystem DE6000H

The following table lists the preconfigured models wih Gen 2 controllers, available by market.

Configuration notes:

• For preconfigured models, two 16GB DE6000 controllers (feature code BQA2) are included in the model configuration.
• For CTO models, two DE6000 controllers are required, either 16GB (feature code BQA2) or 64GB (feature code BQA1)

Nota: The preconfigured models of the ThinkSystem DE6000H listed in this section ship without optical transceivers, DAC cables, or SAS cables; they should be purchased for the system (ver Controladores para detalles).

The ThinkSystem DE6000H controller enclosures ship with two DE6000 controllers, and each controller provides 16 GB o 64 GB de memoria del sistema para un sistema total de 32 GB o 128 ES, respectively. A controller provides interfaces for host connectivity, gestión, and internal drives, and it runs storage management software.

Each controller has one expansion slot for a host interface card (HIC).

The following host interfaces can be added to the ThinkSystem DE6000H controller enclosures with HICs:

• 8X 12 GB SAS x4 (Mini-SAS HD SFF-8644) puertos (4 ports per HIC) for SAS connectivity.
• 8X 10/25 GbE SFP28 ports (4 ports per HIC) for 10/25 Conectividad iSCSI Gb (require optical transceivers or DAC cables that should be purchased for the HICs).
• 8X 8/16/32 Gb FC SFP+ ports (4 ports per HIC) for FC or NVMe/FC connectivity (require optical transceivers that should be purchased for the HICs).
• 4X 25/40/100 GbE RoCE QSFP28 ports (2 ports per HIC) for NVMe/RoCE connectivity (require optical transceivers or DAC cables that should be purchased for the HIC).

Each DE6000 controller also provide two 12 Gb SAS x4 expansion ports (Mini-SAS HD SFF-8644 connectors) for the attachment of the ThinkSystem DE Series expansion units.

Configuration notes:

• Both controllers must have the same system memory: 16 GB o 64 ES.
• Se requieren dos tarjetas de interfaz de host para la selección (uno por controlador).
• Both controllers must have the same type of the host interface card installed (12 Gb SAS SFF-8644, 32 Gb FC SFP+, 10/25 Gb iSCSI SFP28, o 100 GbE NVMe/RoCE QSFP28), and both cards must have SFP+/SFP28/QSFP28 media of the same type (either optical transceivers or DAC cables, but not both types).
• NVMe/FC or NVMe/RoCE connectivity requires controllers with 64 GB system memory.

The following table lists the DE6000H controllers and supported connectivity options.

* Factory-installed only.

In the base configuration, the ThinkSystem DE6000H supports attachment of up to seven ThinkSystem DE240S 2U24 SFF or ThinkSystem DE120S 2U12 LFF, or up to three ThinkSystem DE600S 4U60 LFF, or a combination of the DE240S 2U24 SFF, DE120S 2U12 LFF, and DE600S 4U60 LFF expansion enclosures for a total of up to 240 drives per system.

With the optional FoD upgrade, the DH6000H supports attachment of up to seven ThinkSystem DE600S 4U60 LFF, or a combination of the DE240S 2U24 SFF, DE120S 2U12 LFF, and DE600S 4U60 LFF expansion enclosures for a total of eight enclosures (one controller enclosure and up to seven expansion enclosures) y hasta 480 drives per system.

Intermezcla de 2U24 SFF, 2Sub-12 LFF, and 4U60 LFF expansion enclosures behind a 2U24 SFF or 4U60 LFF controller enclosure is supported up to the maximum number of enclosures and drives supported per system (depending on whether the optional FoD upgrade is enabled or not). The expansion enclosures can be added to the system non-disruptively.

Nota: The Relationship and TopSeller models of the ThinkSystem DE240S, DE120S, and DE600S listed in this section ship with four 1 m SAS cables; additional SAS cables that are listed in this section can be purchased for the system, if needed.

Each ThinkSystem DE Series expansion enclosure ships with two SAS I/O expansion modules. Each I/O expansion module provides four external 12 Gb SAS x4 ports (Mini-SAS HD SFF-8644 connectors labelled Port 1-4) that are used for connections to the ThinkSystem DE6000H and for daisy chaining the expansion enclosures between each other.

Two expansion ports on the Controller A are connected to the Ports 1 y 2 on the I/O Module A in the first expansion enclosure in the chain, and the Ports 3 y 4 on the I/O Module A in the first expansion enclosure are connected to the Ports 1 y 2 on the I/O Module A in the adjacent expansion enclosure, and so on.

Two expansion ports on the Controller B are connected to the Ports 1 y 2 on the I/O Module B in the last expansion enclosure in the chain, and the Ports 3 y 4 on the I/O Module B in the expansion enclosure are connected to the Ports 1 y 2 on the I/O Module B in the adjacent expansion enclosure, and so on.

The following table lists ordering information for the supported expansion enclosure connectivity options.

The ThinkSystem DE Series 2U24 SFF enclosures support up to 24 SFF hot-swap drives, the 2U12 LFF enclosures support up to 12 LFF hot-swap drives, and the 4U60 LFF enclosures support up to 60 LFF hot-swap drives.

Configuration notes:

• For hybrid (HDDs and SSDs) and all flash (SSDs only) storage configurations, a single ThinkSystem DE6000H storage system can support a maximum of 120 SSD.
• A minimum of 20 drives is required for each 4U60 LFF enclosure (the front row of each drawer must be populated with four drives).
• Intermix of FIPS drives and non-FIPS drives is supported within the system.
• FIPS drives are not available in the following countries:
  • Bielorrusia
  • Kazajstán
  • People’s Republic of China
  • Rusia

The following functions are included with every ThinkSystem DE6000H:

• Niveles de RAID 0, 1, 3, 5, 6, y 10: Provide the flexibility to choose the level of performance and data protection required.
• Grupos de discos dinámicos (DDP) technology: Helps improve performance and availability with significantly faster rebuild time and reduced exposure to multiple drive failures by allowing data and built-in spare capacity to be distributed across all physical drives in the storage pool.
• All Flash Array (AFA) capability: Meets the demand for higher speed storage and provide higher IOPS and bandwidth with lower power usage and total cost of ownership than hybrid or HDD-based solutions.
• SSD Read Cache: Helps accelerate performance of read-centric workloads.
• Thin provisioning: Optimizes efficiency of Dynamic Disk Pools by allocating storage space based on the minimum space required by each application at any given time, so that applications consume only the space they are actually using, not the total space that has been allocated to them, which allows customers to purchase storage they need today and add more as application requirements grow.
• Instantáneas: Enables creation of copies of data for backup, parallel processing, testing, and development, and have the copies available almost immediately (hasta 1024 snapshot targets per system).
• Cifrado: Provides encryption for data at rest for enhanced data security with the optional FIPS 140-2 Level 2 drives and embedded key management (AES-256) or an external key management server.
• Automatic load balancing: Provides automated I/O workload balancing of I/O traffic from the hosts across both controllers.
• Data assurance: Ensures industry-standard T10-PI end-to-end data integrity in the storage system (from the host ports to the drives).
• Dynamic volume and capacity expansion: Allows the capacity of a volume to be expanded by adding new physical drives or making use of unused space on existing drives.

Nota: The synchronous and asynchronous mirroring features of the ThinkSystem DE6000H interoperate with other ThinkSystem DE Series storage arrays.

Software maintenance is included in the ThinkSystem DE6000H base warranty and optional warranty extensions, which provides 3-year software support with the option to extend it up to 5 years in 1-year or 2-year increments (see Warranty and support for details).

The DE6000H supports the following management interfaces:

• ThinkSystem System Manager, a web-based interface via HTTPS for single-system management, that runs on the storage system itself and requires only a supported browser, so there is no need for a separate console or plug-in. For more information, see the System Manager Online Help.
• ThinkSystem SAN Manager, a host-installed GUI-based application, for centralized management of multiple storage systems. For more information, see the SAN Manager Online Help.
• ThinkSystem DE Series Storage Plugin for vCenter. For more information, see the DE Series vCenter Plugin Online Help.
• Command line interface (CLI) via SSH or through serial console. For more information, see the CLI Online Help.
• Syslog, SNMP, and e-mail notifications.
• Optional Lenovo XClarity Administrator support for discovery, inventory, and monitoring.
