Storage - Internal SCSI Disks

  • Internal SCSI disks are used in the Mt Xia AIX environment for storage of the AIX operating system.
  • One or more internal SCSI disks may exist in an enclosure
  • In systems where more than one internal SCSI disk exists, software mirroring is used to replicate the AIX operating system.
  • In standalone database systems not connected to the SAN, striping may be used for enhanced performance
  • Quorum requirements is generally not a consideration due to the Mt Xia environment strategy
  • Current architectural direction is to utilize external disk technology for both Application and Operating System volumes.

  • For assistance with designing, implementing, and supporting your storage systems in a business continuity design structure, please contact Mt Xia.
