FAST DISK ARCHIVE UPDATE

The slow down seems to have happened around the update from 6.2.1 to 6.3 and we also have repeated Schannel errors in the System Event viewer - 'A fatal alert was received from the remote endpoint. We've tried reboots to clear down some memory usage, we've tried clearing out the antivirus to see if the antivirus was upsetting anything but it still seems to speed up and slow down and chugs along. It's a DL4300 box with 2x10Core cpus and 128GB of ram, the SAN is on a 10GB link that the DL4300 never comes close to ever saturating.

The archive speed seems to be sporadic, between 5MB/s up to 30MB/s and we've even seen some at 100MB/s but will generally chug along at around 8-10MB/s. Recently, the archives have slowed right down to a point where some of the archives, generally around 8TB in size, can take 6 days to complete which means that the 5 archives a week can't be done. Storage Performance & Utilization Managementĭoes anyone know what denotes how quickly an archive is taken? Through the week, we run 5 archives that will be backed up to a SAN and then copy over to a tape using Netvault.Foglight for Virtualization, Enterprise Edition.

ODS-D380U, ODS-D380F, ODC5500R are planned to be available in January 2020. For mid-size archive solutions, the existing Optical Disc Archive PetaSite ODS-元0M library, from Sony, with increased capacity up to nearly 3PB per library system is expected to be Gen3 ready in January 2020. The new PetaSite EX solution will be on display on Sony’s booth 795 at SC19 in Denver, CO, beginning on November 17, 2019. The high capacity solution will scale from 4.7PB up to 50PB per single library and can scale-out to multi-library cluster configurations capable of managing hundreds of petabytes of archive data.

Sony is currently developing an enterprise class library solution with Qualstar Corporation (NASDAQ: QBAK) utilising Gen3 technology. The next-generation media is resistant to temperature and humidity changes and is superior at withstanding external factors including water, light and EMP (Electronic Magnetic Pulse) events. Optical Disc Archive Gen3 can also reduce long-term expenses thanks to its eco-friendly, low power consumption. In addition, its dependability, feature set and backward compatibility eliminate the need for data migration between multiple media generations. It is ideal for accommodating the industry’s growing demand for long-term cold archive storage. The included Fixity check feature provides auditable long-term data integrity.

Data integrity is assured using “on the fly” verification combined with highly stable storage media.

The new Gen3 enterprise class 8-channel optical drive reads and writes both sides of the double-sided media to enable high speed, secure data transfer of 375 MB/s read and 187.5 MB/s write, 1.5 times higher when compared with Gen2. With technology moving so quickly, there is bound to be other archival systems appear in the future that will be fast and offer far greater capacities. Now, whether or not your Optical Disc will still be able to be read in 10 years, let alone 100 years is hard to say. With an estimated lifespan of over 100 years, Optical Disc Archive Gen3 is an ideal solution for long-term, durable and reliable storage. To put the figure of 5.5TB into perspective you could store 170 hours of 50Mbps MPEG2 HD 422 material or 49 hours of XAVC-L422 UHD 200Mbps second material on a single disk.
