RAID2.0+ Architecture
Huawei RAID2.0+: bottom-layer media virtualization + upper-layer resource virtualization for fast data reconstruction and smart resource allocation
Fast data reconstruction: Data reconstruction time is reduced from 10 hours to only 30 minutes. The data reconstruction speed is improved by 20 times.
Adverse service impacts and disk failure rates are reduced.
All disks in a storage pool participate in reconstruction, and only service data is reconstructed. The traditional many-to-one reconstruction mode is
transformed to the many-to-many fast reconstruction mode.
Data reconstruction speed is accelerated by 20 times.

Supports 8 Gbit/s and 16 Gbit/s Fibre Channel and 10Gbit/s eth/FCoE(VN2VF) ports.
Supports 10GE iWARP (Scale-out). A SmartI/O card in a specific slot (slot 1 in 2600 V3) can
provide IP Scale-out ports, including four 10 Gbit/s Ethernet ports that use iWARP RDMA to
connect to other 2600 V3 controllers, connecting 2 to 8 controllers over a direct-connection or
switch-based network.
Allows port mode switch between FC, and Scale-out in DeviceManager or CLI. The new port
mode takes effect after 10 to 20 seconds.
Supports 16 Gbit/s, 8 Gbit/s, and 10 Gbit/s optical modules. By default, a SmartIO module
does not have an optical module. You need to configure optical modules based on site
requirements.
19HUAWEI TECHNOLOGIES CO., LTD. Huawei Confidential
8 Gbit/s Fibre Channel High-Density Interface Module
2200 V3 and 2600 V3 both support 8Gb FC high-density interface module. Each controller can be configured with one such module
at most.
Each high-density interface module provides two 4x8 Gbit/s Fibre Channel physical ports. Based on the MPO of a dedicated optical
fiber, each physical port is converted into four 8 Gbit/s Fibre Channel ports. (The output end does not contain optical modules.) In this
way, a single high-density interface module can provide eight optical ports that are used only as storage target ports to connect to
hosts.
1-to-4 dedicated optical fibers with a length of 15 meters or 5 meters are supported. If the distance exceeds 15 meters, use an ODF to
increase the transmission length.

HyperSnap (virtual snapshot)
Concept
A virtual snapshot is an identical data copy of the
source data at a specific point in time. Snapshot
technologies include virtual snapshot and LUN clone,
and virtual snapshot is associated with the source LUN.
Technical characteristics
Instant generation: A storage system can generate a
snapshot (an identical copy of the source data) within
seconds.
Small space occupation: The snapshot is not a
complete physical copy of the source data, so it only
occupies small storage space.
Application scenarios
Fast data backup and recovery (against mis-deletion or
viruses)
Constant data protection
Data analysis and test
1. Data is written to the system.

HyperCopy (LUN copy)
Concept
LUN copy replicates data from a source LUN to a target
LUN in the same array or a different array.
HyperCopy (full LUN copy)
Full LUN copy refers to the process of copying all data
from a source LUN to a target LUN.
Write requests to the source LUN must be suspended
before a full LUN copy task. If the source LUN handles
write requests during the copy process, data on the
target LUN will become inconsistent.
Advantages and application scenarios
Support for third-party storage
A source LUN can be smaller than its target LUN.
Support for data migration within an array or between
arrays

HyperClone (clone)
HyperClone working mechanism1. During initial synchronization, the primary LUN receives a write
request from the host and checks the synchronization progress.
2. If the data block at the target location has not been copied to the
secondary LUN, the new data is directly written to the primary LUN
and then a periodic synchronization task copies the data to the
secondary LUN.
3. If the data block has been copied, the new data is written to both the
primary and secondary LUNs.
4. If the data block is being copied, the new data is written to both the
primary and secondary LUNs after the copy process is completed.
5. After initial synchronization, the primary and secondary LUNs can be
split, and then they can be independently used for different purposes.
Bitmaps are used to record data block changes.
Advantages and application scenarios• The damage of a primary LUN does not affect the usage of its
secondary LUNs.
• Clone is mainly applicable to data backup, data protection, and data
test and analysis.Primary

HyperMirrorHyperMirror is a data backup technology. It creates multiple
physical mirror copies for a LUN to achieve continuous LUN
backup and protection. In this way, the reliability and
availability of the LUN are significantly improved.
Working principle
Creating a mirrored LUN
1. Converts a local LUN or an external LUN into a mirrored
LUN, creates a mirror copy, and adds a mirror copy for
the mirrored LUN for redundancy.
Performing synchronization
1. Initial synchronization: Replicates all data from the
mirrored LUN to the mirror copy and writes data
concurrently to both the mirrored LUN and mirror copy.
2. Incremental synchronization: Replicates data increment
from the mirrored LUN to the mirror copy after the mirror
copy is recovered from Splitting or Interruption.
Implementing splitting
1. The mirror copy is unavailable after splitting, but is
available before splitting.

HyperReplication/S (synchronous remote replication)
Concept
HyperReplication/S is a remote replication technology that synchronizes
data between arrays in real time, maximizing data consistency and
minimizing data loss during disasters.
HyperReplication /S working mechanism
When a synchronous remote replication task is created, an initial
synchronization process begins, and all data on the primary LUN is
copied to its secondary LUN.
After initial synchronization, the primary LUN handles a write request
according to the following procedure:
1. The primary site receives a write request from the host and sets
the differential log value to "different" for the data block
corresponding to the I/O.
2. The primary site writes the new data to the primary LUN (LUN A)
and sends the write request to the secondary site through the
replication link.
3. If data is successfully written to both LUN A and LUN B, the
previous differential log value is changed to "same". If the data
write fails, the value remains "different" and the data block will be
copied again in the next synchronization process.
4. A write success is returned to the host.

HyperReplication/A (asynchronous remote replication)
Concept
HyperReplication/A is a remote replication technology that periodically
synchronizes data between arrays, minimizing latency and performance
reduction in long-distance transfer.
HyperReplication/A working mechanism
When an asynchronous remote replication task is created, an initial
synchronization process begins, and all data on the primary LUN is copied to
its secondary LUN.
After initial synchronization, the primary LUN handles a write request
according to the following procedure:
1. When a replication period starts, the caches of the primary LUN (LUN
A) and secondary LUN (LUN B) generate new timestamps (TPN+1 and
TPX+1).
2. The primary site receives a write request from the host.
3. The primary site writes the request into TPN+1 and returns a write
success to the host.
4. During data synchronization, the system copies data in the timestamp
of the previous period, TPN, from LUN A's cache to TPX+1 in LUN B's
cache. If LUN A's cache reaches its high watermark, its data is flushed
to disks, and a snapshot is generated for TPN data.
5. The snapshot for the flushed data is replicated to LUN B.

Technical principles Capacity on write: If the allocated space becomes insufficient,
new space is relocated with a 64 KB granularity by default.
Mapping table: Logical units and physical units (with a default
64 KB granularity) are associated through a mapping table.
Redirection-on-time: redirecting I/Os from logical units to
physical units through a mapping table.
Technical advantages Efficient allocation policy: The 64-KB allocation
granularity improves efficiency in small-data block
scenarios.
Diversified reclamation mechanisms: supporting
reclamation by VMware VAAI commands, Symantec
Storage Foundation commands, Windows Server 2012
commands, and full-zero page check reclamation
31HUAWEI TECHNOLOGIES CO., LTD. Huawei Confidential
All-zero data block/Unused storage space
Non-all-zero data block/Used storage space
Working principle1. When receiving a write request from the host, the thin
LUN divides the request in terms of grain granularity
(the granularity of space allocation: 64 KB) and checks
whether the grains contain all-zero data blocks.
2. The thin LUN queries the space allocation mapping
table to check whether the all-zero grains have been
allocated physical storage space.
3. If the logical storage address of all-zero grains has not
been allocated physical storage space, the thin LUN
directly returns an acknowledgement indicating a
successful data write to the host without space
allocation.
4. If the logical address of all-zero grains has been
allocated physical storage space, the thin LUN
releases the physical storage space to the storage
resource pool and returns an acknowledgement
indicating a successful data write to the host.

Data availability after migration from
heterogeneous storage
Data remains available after being migrated from
legacy storage systems.
Data can be migrated among storage systems of
different levels. Functions and features of
enterprise-level storage systems improve original
storage systems' storage efficiency.
Cross-level data migration enables inactive data
to be relocated in lower-cost storage systems,
reducing the TCO.
Local HA solutions based on combination with
volume mirroring
Volume mirroring can be performed between
LUNs on heterogeneous storage and local LUNs
for redundancy.

Working principle
Service data synchronization
Data changes on the source LUN can be synchronized
to the target LUN using dual-write and DCL technologies.
LUN information exchange
The LUN IDs keep unchanged, but the data volume IDs
are switched. In this way, the physical storage space to
which the source LUN points becomes the target data
volume after data migration. The entire service

SmartErase
SmartErase provides the following data destruction
methods:
DoD 5220.22-M: A data destruction standard put
forward by the US Department of Defense (DoD). The
standard provides a software method of destroying data
on writable storage media, namely, three times of
overwriting.
1. Using an 8-bit character to overwrite all addresses
2. Using the complementary codes of the character
(complements of 0 and 1) to overwrite all addresses
3. Using a random character to overwrite all addresses
Customized: A system generates data based on
internal algorithms and uses the data to overwrite all
addresses of LUNs for specific times.
1. The times of overwriting range from 3 to 99. The
default value is 7.

User-customized
compression policies
Data block compression granularity (adaptive): 8 KB/12 KB/16 KB/20 KB/24 KB/28 KB/32 KB
− When the size of a new data block is larger than 32 KB, the storage system directly compresses the data.
− When the size of a new data block is smaller than 32 KB, the storage system adaptively compresses
multiple such data blocks together.
Compression policy:
Fast: This policy is used by default when no ACC card is configured. It enables fast compression and uses the LZ4 algorithm.
Deduplication and
compression can be
independently started and
configured.
Deduplication is performed
before compression to save
more space.

Deduplicated data write onto
disks
Online deduplication of fixed-length data blocks: The size of a
deduplicated data block is the same as that allocated by thin
LUNs. The size ranges from 4 KB to 64 KB.
Data processing flow:
1. The fingerprint of a new data block is calculated using the
SHA1 algorithm. If an ACC card is configured, the ACC card is
used for data calculation. If no ACC card is configured, the
controller CPU calculates data fingerprints.
2. The new fingerprint is compared with those of existing data
blocks.
3. If the fingerprint is different from all existing ones, the new
data block is written onto a disk. If the fingerprint is the same
as an existing one, the new data block is deleted and the
existing data block is located.
4. (Optional) If the new fingerprint is the same as an existing
one and the byte-by-byte comparison is enabled (using the
CLI), the new and existing data blocks are compared byte-by-
byte. If the two data blocks are different, the new data block is
written onto a disk. If they are the same, the new data block is
deleted and the existing data block is located.

Notes:
1. SmartDedupe is not recommended for database scenarios because timestamps created
upon database table storage cannot be deduplicated.
2. Varying types of data of the email service has little chance of being deduplicated, but such
data can be compressed.
3. Geological data mainly consisting of unstructured data can be deduplicated or compressed.
The industry's recommendation and space saved (for reference):
Note: The space
saved is closely

SmartQoS: prioritizing key applications (1)
Limit the performance of
ordinary applications.
Start flow control.The ordinary application performance is
too high, and key applications are affected.
Start priority control.
SmartQoS (intelligent service quality control)
prioritizes applications by setting different
performance goals for them and ensures the
performance of key applications. It is applicable
to hybrid application scenarios.
Priority policy: The system allocates internal I/O
queues into different classes (high, medium, and
low), and arranges system resources such as
front-end parallel capability, CPU, cache, and
back-end disks to these I/O queues based on
their class level.
Setting upper limits in the flow control mechanism:
Limit the performance of non-critical applications by
setting upper limits for their IOPS, bandwidth, and
latency, preventing these applications from occupying
too many system resources.

SmartCache (intelligent data caching)
Uses SSDs as the level-2 cache for RAM Cache as well as
the read cache for data deduplication.
SmartCache pool: Manages SSDs and allocates and
reclaims SSD resources for SmartCache partitions at a
granularity of 8 MB. Each controller has in independent
SmartCache pool, and each SmartCache pool belongs to a
controller. An SSD can belong only to one SmartCache
pool.
Supports dynamic capacity expansion and reduction of
SmartCache pools.
SmartCache partition: Provides SSD cache resources (at a
fine-grained granularity (from 4 KB to 128 KB) for services.
Different services can share one SmartCache partition, or
use their own SmartCache partitions.
Utilizes SSD resources in cyclic sequential write mode to
reduce garbage collection within SSDs, ensuring SSD

Arbitration server mode (recommended)
Static priority mode
HyperMetro (active-active solutions) — active-active arbitration (1)
Arbitration devices are deployed in 3rd-party sites and in
different fault domains from the DCs.
When faults such as split-brain occur, the storage arrays
apply for arbitration. The winning array continues services
while the losing one stops services. Preferred arrays enjoy
arbitration preference.
UltraPath supports preferred selection of local paths.
If arbitration devices malfunction, the mode switches to the
static priority mode after a certain period of time.
Requires no arbitration servers.
For each active-active pair, you can set the storage array
at either end as the preferred site and that on the other end
as the non-preferred site.
When a split-brain occurs or the non-preferred site
malfunctions, LUNs in the preferred site continue services
while those in the non-preferred site stop services.
However, if the preferred site becomes faulty, the non-
preferred site will not take over services and services will
then stop.
Arbitration deployment
• Arbitration device: a physical or virtual server
• Arbitration link: any link reachable by IP addresses
• Mechanism: The array winning the arbitration server survives.

SmartMulti-Tenant
Storage
administrator
A storage administrator manages all resources in a storage array and
all tenants.
A tenant administrator can only manage resources in its vStore.
SmartMulti-Tenant efficiently separates the
resource data of tenants and assigns the
management work of some resources to tenants
to make tenants manage resources in their own
vStores.
Working principle
Rights- and domain-based management
1. Tenant administrators can manage LUNs and
monitor LUN performance.
2. The storage administrator can allocate LUNs to
tenants, and assign and manage tenant
administrators.
Resource management
1. The storage administrator has full resource
management permission, whereas tenant
administrators can only query resources.
