[Networker] Maximum number of devices.
2007-01-31 12:57:42
I am having trouble getting a definitive answer from EMC on the maximum
number of devices I can have on one Storage Node. We are running 7.2.1
Network Edition. From the 7.2 Administration Guide I see:
Network Edition -
Storage Node Devices: 16
Maximum = (16 x number of nodes) + 16
So with Network Edition I can have 16 devices on my Server, and sixteen
more per Storage Node.
Power Edition -
Storage Node Devices: 16
Maximum = (16 x number of nodes) + 32
If I went to the Power Edition, the documentation shows I could then
have 32 devices on the Server, and an additional 16 devices per Storage
Node. EMC is telling me I can have 32 devices on the Storage Node if I
go to Power Edition. The support person could not explain why their own
documentation contradicts this.
Does anyone in the list have experience with the maximum number of
devices you can have on a single storage node using Network Edition vs.
Power Edition?
If I added an additional Storage Node license, would I be able to have
more than 16 devices on a single Storage Node, or would I have to add
another physical node to be able to add more devices?
Thanks,
Mark
