7 Dell EMC SC Series: Red Hat Enterprise Linux Best Practices | CML1031
1 Overview
SC Series storage provides Linux-compatible and SCSI-3 compliant disk volumes that remove the complexity
of allocating, administering, using, and protecting mission-critical data. A properly configured SC Series array
removes the need for cumbersome physical disk configuration exercises and management along with
complex RAID configuration practices. The SC Series array also provides RAID 10 speed and reliability at the
storage layer so that volumes do not need to be further RAID-managed within the Linux operating system.
The full range of Linux utilities such as mirroring, backup, multiple file system types, multipath, boot from
SAN, and disaster recovery can be used with SC Series volumes.
Each major Red Hat release introduces new capabilities, features, performance improvements, and better
interoperability. This paper focuses mainly on storage features and management. For a full list and
descriptions of new features, refer to the applicable release notes on the Red Hat Enterprise Linux Document
Portal.
