Product description

Product description

The file engine of a T series unified storage •system is developed on the Pangea V1R3 hardware platform. It is a 4 U independent engine and resembles the Pangea V1R1 hardware platform (S5500T/S5600T/S6800T controller enclosure).Each controller in the independent engine is a •node of the file engine, that is, every engine provides two nodes.

Controller – File engineOne controller is one node. •

Interface moduleEach node has six I/O module slots. •Each node has a GE card for •heartbeat communication.Each node has an 8 Gbit/s Fiber •Channel adapter for array connection.Each node has a maximum of four •GE or 10GE adapters for NAS host interfaces.
