Introduction ----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Audience Welcome to the DS4000/FAStT Storage Manager Demo Guide. The audience for this demo guide are technically-oriented members of the sales community who wish to understand more about how the DS4000/FAStT Storage Manager works. This guide is also for members of Field Sales wishing to use this tool to demonstrate capabilities of the DS4000/FAStT Storage Manager. Goals of this Document During the sales cycle, the DS4000/FAStT Storage Manager Demo can be a powerful tool in demonstrating how quickly and easily IBM storage subsystems can solve business problems. This document fulfills two goals: • To familiarize you with the workings of the DS4000/FAStT Storage Manager Demo software. This goal is addressed by the two sections: o “Getting Started” on page 3: This section guides you through the process of installing the DS4000/FAStT Storage Manager Demo software and setting up a baseline environment o “DS4000/FAStT Storage Manager ” on page 13: This section further explores the DS4000/FAStT Storage Manager functions, providing tutorials for setting up and using both basic and premium features. • To enable you to put together a demo of the DS4000/FAStT Storage Manager product for your prospects, and customers that is tailored to their business needs and storage requirements. “Putting Together An Effective Demo” on page 59 addresses this goal through the presentation of a series of typical business and sales scenarios. New for this Version New in this version is support for SATA drives in the EXP810 expansion unit. DS4000/FAStT Storage Manager Demo Guide 1
Users of Earlier Versions The basic functions described in this demo guide apply to all versions of the FAStT Storage Manager (FSM) beginning with 8.0. Users of FSM versions previous to 8.4 will find that the VolumeCopy premium feature is not supported - it is available only with 8.4 or beyond. FSM 8.41 adds support for the EXP100 Drive Expansion Unit which supports Serial ATA (SATA) drive technology. FSM 8.42 adds support for the FAStT100 which offers SATA drive technology. FSM 9.1 adds support for Remote Mirroring for the FAStT600 Turbo. In addition, Enhanced Remote Mirror includes asynchronous mirroring as well as asynchronous mirroring with write order consistency. FSM 9.12 adds the Enterprise Management Window Task Assistant. FSM 9.14 adds the DS4800 FSM 9.16 adds the EXP810 expansion unit (DS4800 [and DS4700] only). FSM 9.16 revision 2 adds the DS4700 Express Model. FSM 9.16 revision 3 adds SATA drives in the EXP810 expansion unit. DS4000/FAStT Storage Manager Demo Guide 2
Getting Started ----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Background Information The DS4000/FAStT Storage Manager (DSM) Demo was originally designed for use in testing environments as a stand-alone simulator of DSM functions. With each revision of DSM, the demo program has been updated with new features. To prevent accidental access to or corruption of critical data, the DSM Demo does not have the ability to access actual storage subsystems. Prerequisites The DSM Demo program runs on Windows 2000 or XP environments. Other environments have not been tested nor are they approved for use. Loading the software The DSM Demo program is available from a variety of sources (CD, web, etc.) and comes as a zip file with the following name: SMdemo-0916G503.zip. Unzip this file into a folder of your choice. Within this folder will be the DEMO folder and simply navigate there and execute the batch file named StartDemo.bat. You’re ready to go! -------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- NOTE When the installation of the DSM Demo is completed, it is not necessary to reboot your system before executing the StartDemo batch file. -------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- DS4000/FAStT Storage Manager Demo Guide 3
Exploring the DSM Demo Program Executing StartDemo.bat starts a Java session with the DSM Demo program. You’ll see the following two screens - the DSM splash screen identifying the DSM demo followed by the Enterprise Management Window Task Assistant screen: DS4000/FAStT Storage Manager Demo Guide 4
The Enterprise Management Window Task Assistant is a new series of wizards that helps you install your new DS4000 storage system. Common tasks that the Task Assistant provide include: • Add Storage Subsystems • Name/Rename Storage Subsystems • Configure Alerts • Manage a Storage Subsystem Feel free to explore the Task Assistant. When you’re finished close the Task Assistant window. Click on the leftmost power icon button to auto-discover the storage subsystems. You will now see the Enterprise Management window describing the four configurations: The eight storage subsystems are configured as follows: • DS4800 Configured – This system has eight EXP810 expansion units, all of the DSM premium features are enabled and there are several arrays configured. • DS4800 – This system has eight expansion units (four EXP810s with FC drives, four EXP810s with SATA drives and four EXP710s), all of the DSM premium features are enabled and no arrays are configured. • DS4700 Configured – This system has one controller module and six EXP810 expansion units, all of the DSM premium features are enabled and there are several arrays configured. • DS4700 – This system has one controller module with FC drives and five expansion units (two EXP810s with FC drives and three EXP810s with SATA drives), only Storage Partitioning and FlashCopy premium features are enabled and no arrays are configured. • DS4500 – This system has four EXP710 expansion units, all DSM premium features are enabled and there are two arrays configured. • DS4300 – This system has one controller module and three expansion units (one EXP710 and two EXP100s), all of the DSM premium features are enabled and there is one array configured. • DS4200 – This system has one controller module and three EXP420 expansion units, all of the DSM premium features are enabled and no arrays are configured. • DS4100 – This system has one controller module and two EXP100 expansion units, only Storage Partitioning and FlashCopy premium features are enabled and no arrays are configured.

For our exploration of the DSM Demo, we’ll use the third storage subsystem configuration, DS4700 Configured. Select the DS4700 Configured configuration by double-clicking it in the right panel. This displays the Subsystem Management window: The menu bar of the Subsystem Management window provides access to all the components and functions of the FAStT storage subsystem: where: • Storage Subsystem provides access to: o Premium features o Remote mirroring o Performance monitoring o Recovery Guru DS4000/FAStT Storage Manager Demo Guide 6
