Planning File Systems and LUNs Planning Applications, LUNs, and Storage Groups This section will help you plan your storage use - the applications to run, the LUNs that will hold them, and, for shared storage, the Storage Groups that will belong to each server. Unshared storage systems do not use Storage Groups. For unshared storage, skip the Storage Group entry on the LUN and Storage Group worksheet. The worksheets include ◆ Application and LUN planning worksheet - lets you outline your storage needs. ◆ LUN and Storage Group planning worksheet - lets you decide on the disks to compose the LUNs and the LUNs to compose the Storage Groups for each server. ◆ LUN details worksheet - lets you plan each LUN in detail. Make as many copies of each blank worksheet as you need. You will need this information later when you configure the storage system(s). Sample worksheets appear later in this chapter. 5-6 EMC CLARiiON CX300, CX500, CX500i, and CX700 Storage Systems Configuration Planning Guide

EMC CLARiiON CX300, CX500, CX500i, and CX700 Storage Systems Configuration Planning Guide
Planning File Systems and LUNs
Planning Applications, LUNs, and Storage Groups
This section will help you plan your storage use — the applications to
run, the LUNs that will hold them, and, for shared storage, the
Storage Groups that will belong to each server.
Unshared storage systems do not use Storage Groups. For unshared storage,
skip the Storage Group entry on the LUN and Storage Group worksheet.
The worksheets include
◆
Application and LUN planning worksheet — lets you outline
your storage needs.
◆
LUN and Storage Group planning worksheet — lets you decide
on the disks to compose the LUNs and the LUNs to compose the
Storage Groups for each server.
◆
LUN details worksheet — lets you plan each LUN in detail.
Make as many copies of each blank worksheet as you need. You will
need this information later when you configure the storage system(s).
Sample worksheets appear later in this chapter.
