  • H8716.2 EMC Symmetrix Vmaxe Storage System, Spec Sheet
    EMC SYMMETRIX VMAXe STORAGE SYSTEM EMC® Symmetrix® VMAXe™ with the Enginuity™ operating environment delivers a multi- controller, scale-out architecture with consolidation and efficiency for the enterprise. As the newest member of the Symmetrix series, VMAXe utilizes the same revolutionary EMC Virtual Matrix Architecture™ as EMC VMAX™ systems. SPECIFICATIONS ARCHITECTURE The Virtual Matrix Architecture enables IT departments to build storage systems that tran- scend the physical constraint of competing array architectures. The architecture allows scal- ing of system resources through common and fully redundant building blocks called VMAXe series engines. A single VMAXe engine provides the complete foundation for a high-availability storage array. Each VMAXe engine contains two Symmetrix VMAXe directors and redundant interfaces to the EMC Virtual Matrix™ interconnect. Each Symmetrix VMAXe director consolidates front-end, global memory, and back-end functions, enabling direct memory access to data for opti- mized I/O operations. Up to four VMAXe engines can be interconnected via a set of multiple active fabrics that provide scalable performance and high availability. VMAXe engines can be added non-disruptively to provide linear scale-out of Symmetrix system resources. A single-engine Symmetrix VMAXe can start with as little as 24 drives, scaling up to four engines supporting 1,080 drives for a maximum usable capacity of up to 1.5 petabytes. VMAXe engine one and VMAXe engine two can support up to 240 drives per engine. VMAXe engines three and four can support up to 300 drives per engine. A fully configured 1,080- drive system is comprised of four integrated system bays and three storage bays.
