Dell EqualLogic PS Series
Dell EqualLogic PS Series iSCSI arrays simplify storage deployment by
offering high performance, reliability, intelligent automation, and seamless
virtualization of a single pool of storage.
The foundation of an EqualLogic storage array is a PS Series group — an
iSCSI SAN including one or more PS Series storage array members connected
to an IP network and managed as a single system. Each array has fully
redundant hardware and up to three active network connections for
maximum bandwidth. Integrated virtualization firmware provides:
• Seamless scalability
• Automatic RAID configuration and spare disk configuration
• Automatic network, performance, and capacity load balancing
All PS Series models have dual active/passive controllers with three 1-GbE
ports per controller for a total of six 1-GbE ports.
By default, the physical network interface on which the XenServer
management interface is configured is chosen to route the IP storage traffic.
