10.2 Dell FluidFS

Dell EqualLogic FS Series appliances, coupled with PS Series arrays, offer a high performance, high

availability, scalable NAS solution.

FS Series Firmware V2.0 adds the following features:

• NAS Container Replication

• NAS Antivirus Service for CIFS Shares

• New Monitoring Features

• Support for FS7600 and FS7610 Appliances

Dell FluidFS

is a high performance clustered file system. It provides fully interoperable multi-protocol

file sharing for UNIX, Linux, and Windows® clients using standard CIFS and NFS file access protocols

and authentication methods (Active Directory, LDAP, NIS). Some of the key features provided in

FluidFS include:

Single namespace: FluidFS presents a single file system namespace (up to 509TB usable capacity),

accessible via a virtual IP address, regardless of cluster size.

High availability and reliability: The FS Series architecture includes a high speed cluster interconnect

between controller nodes, write cache mirroring, failsafe journaling, and data integrity checks. In a

FluidFS based FS Series cluster, a controller node can fail without affecting data availability or causing

data loss, even if write operations were occurring at the time of failure.
