Oracle disk shelves are high-availability serial attached SCSI (SAS) devices that provide expanded storage.
How do I add a disk shelf?
For disk shelves, you insert a SAS cable connector with the pull tab oriented up (on the topside of the connector).
- Install the disk shelf, power it on, and set the shelf ID.
- Disconnect the SAS cable from the IOM B port of the last shelf in the stack, and then reconnect it to the same port in the new shelf.
What are ACP ports?
The ACP is an AXI 64-bit slave port which can be connected to a DMA engine or a non-cached coherent master. The ACP interface supports an AXI ID width of 3.
What is NetApp disk shelf?
NetApp Disk Shelf Models – Fibre Channel NetApp used to offer Fibre Channel disk shelves, meaning the controller is connected to the shelf through a Fibre Channel port and cable. These included the DS14mk2 and DS14mk4. The Fibre Channel disk shelves have been end of sale for some time now.
What is FAS storage?
NetApp Storage Architecture First is the NetApp filer, also known as NetApp Fabric Attached Storage (FAS). This series operates in the enterprise class Storage Area Network (SAN) environment. It presents storage over the network using file-based protocols like CIFS, FTP, HTTP, and NFS.
What is NetApp shelf?

What is IOM12?
The IOM12 module is used in DS460C, DS224C, and DS212C disk shelves. The system administrator activated this LED function to aid in physically locating the disk shelf with the failed IOM12 module.
What is AFF and FAS?
The difference between them is that FAS systems are hybrid storage. That means that they support both SSD disks and spinning disks, your SAS drives and SATA drives as well. AFF systems, on the other hand, support SSD only. Therefore, you’re only allowed to use SSDs in those systems.
What is NetApp FAS and AFF?
NetApp® All Flash FAS (AFF) is a robust scale-out platform built for virtualized environments, combining low-latency performance with best-in-class data management, built-in efficiencies, integrated data protection, multiprotocol support, and nondisruptive operations.
What is NetApp E Series?
E-Series systems give you an integrated hardware and software solution for dedicated, high-bandwidth applications like data analytics, video surveillance, and disk-based backup that need simple, fast, reliable SAN storage.
What is the difference between the ds4243 and ds4246 disk shelves?
Note: New DS4243 and DS4246 disk shelves are visually distinguished by the following labeling: The disk shelf model, DS4243 or DS4246, appears on the front right ear cover of the disk shelf. IOM3 appears on the IOM face for DS4243 disk shelves. IOM6 appears on the face of the IOM for DS4246 disk shelves. Two-digit shelf ID digital display
What is ACP fault on ds4243 shelves?
AC fault Note: DS4243 shelves ship with two or four power supplies, depending on the type of disk drives. Alternate Control Path (ACP) capability For maximum storage availability and stability, storage systems with disk shelves have the option to use the ACP capability.
What is the difference between ds2246 and ds4486?
There are actually many different shelves with a similar name, for example DS4246 (which has a 6GBit SAS module called IOM6 instead of the 3GBit IOM3), DS2246 (which is the 2U version with 24 2.5” slots for SAS or SSD disks) and the DS4486 (which uses “double-deep” disk carriers and squeezes 48 3.5” disks in 4U).
What are the different types of NetApp Disk shelves?
NetApp Disk Shelf Models – SAS The four NetApp disk shelf models that are currently available are the DS224C, DS2246, DS212C, DS4246, DS4486 and DS460C. The models ending in a ‘C’ are new shelves which support the 16TB SSD drives compatible with ONTAP 9. The DS4243 went end of sale fairly recently.
