14 Dell Storage PS Series Arrays: Scalability and Growth in Virtual Environments | TR1072
9 Summary
With virtualized data center environments being the standard, it is important that administrators understand
exactly how to manage and control growth and sprawl of resources. Managing multipath configurations, larger
volume sizes, CHAP authentication, utilizing group and storage pool transparency, and distributing cluster
environments are all ways to scale and manage connections to PS Series SANs for virtualized environments.
With a little planning and a good understanding of how volume connections are used and controlled, virtual
environments can continue to scale and grow many times over to meet the most demanding data center
requirements.
