Software
The following functions are included with every ThinkSystem DE6000F:
RAID levels 0, 1, 3, 5, 6, and 10 : Provide the flexibility to choose the level of performance and data
protection required.
Dynamic Disk Pools (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.
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.
Snapshots: Enables creation of copies of data for backup, parallel processing, testing, and
development, and have the copies available almost immediately (up to 2048 snapshot targets per
system).
Encryption: 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.
Synchronous mirroring: Provides storage system-based online, real-time data replication between
the storage systems containing primary (local) and secondary (remote) volumes by using
synchronous data transfers over Fibre Channel communication links (both storage systems must
have licenses for synchronous mirroring).
