The Lenovo ThinkSystem DE6000F 2U24 SFF enclosure. Did you know?
The ThinkSystem DE6000F scales up to 1.84 PB of raw storage capacity.
The ThinkSystem DE6000F supports multiple storage connectivity protocols with a choice of SAS, iSCSI, Fibre Channel, NVMe over Fibre Channel, or NVMe over RoCE.
For the ThinkSystem DE6000F, customers can change the host port protocol from FC to iSCSI or from iSCSI to FC for the SFP+ host ports built into the controller (base host ports).

Key features

The ThinkSystem DE6000F offers the following key features and benefits:

• All-flash array capabilities and NVMe over Fabrics to meet the demand for higher speed storage and provide higher IOPs and bandwidth with lower power usage and total cost of ownership than hybrid or HDD-based solutions.
• Scalable, high performance mid-range storage with dual active/active controller configurations with 64 GB system memory per controller for high availability and performance.
• Improved performance and data protection with Dynamic Disk Pools (DDP) technology, as well as support for traditional RAID 0, 1, 3, 5, 6, and 10.
• Flexible storage protocols to match diverse client needs with support for 10 Gb iSCSI or 4/8/16 Gb FC and 12 Gb SAS, 10/25 Gb iSCSI, or 8/16/32 Gb FC host connectivity, or 8/16/32 Gb NVMe/FC host connectivity, or 25/40/100 Gb NVMe/RoCE host connectivity.
• 12 Gb SAS drive-side connectivity with support for up to 24x 2.5-inch small form factor (SFF) drives in the 2U24 SFF enclosures.
• Scalability to up to 120 SFF drives with the attachment of up to four ThinkSystem DE240S 2U24 SFF expansion enclosures to satisfy growing needs for storage capacity and performance.
• Full set of storage management functions comes with the system, including Dynamic Disk Pools, snapshots, volume copy, thin provisioning, synchronous mirroring, and asynchronous mirroring.
• Intuitive, web-based GUI for easy system setup and management.
• Designed for 99.9999% availability with redundant hot-swap components, including controllers and I/O modules, power supplies, proactive maintenance, and non disruptive firmware upgrades.

The following solid-state drives are supported in the 2U24 SFF enclosures:

• Capacity-optimized SSDs (1 drive write per day [DWD]): 3.84 TB, 7.68 TB, and 15.36 TB
• High performance SSDs (3 DWD): 800 GB, 1.6 TB

Configuration notes:

• Intermix of FIPS drives and non-FIPS drives is supported within the system.
• FIPS drives are not available in the following countries:
  • Belarus
  • Kazakhstan
  • People’s Republic of China
  • Russia

Software

The following functions are included with every ThinkSystem DE6000F:

• RAID levels 0, 1, 3, 5, 6, and 10 : Provide the flexibility to choose the level of performance and data protection required.
• Dynamic Disk Pools (DDP) technology : Helps improve performance and availability with significantly faster rebuild time and reduced exposure to multiple drive failures by allowing data and built-in spare capacity to be distributed across all physical drives in the storage pool.
• All Flash Array (AFA) capability : Meets the demand for higher speed storage and provide higher IOPS and bandwidth with lower power usage and total cost of ownership than hybrid or HDD-based solutions.
• Thin provisioning : Optimizes efficiency of Dynamic Disk Pools by allocating storage space based on the minimum space required by each application at any given time, so that applications consume only the space they are actually using, not the total space that has been allocated to them, which allows customers to purchase storage they need today and add more as application requirements grow.
• Snapshots : Enables creation of copies of data for backup, parallel processing, testing, and development, and have the copies available almost immediately (up to 2048 snapshot targets per system).
• Encryption: Provides encryption for data at rest for enhanced data security with the optional FIPS 140-2 Level 2 drives and embedded key management (AES-256) or an external key management server.
• Automatic load balancing: Provides automated I/O workload balancing of I/O traffic from the hosts across both controllers.
• Data assurance: Ensures industry-standard T10-PI end-to-end data integrity in the storage system (from the host ports to the drives).
• Dynamic volume and capacity expansion: Allows the capacity of a volume to be expanded by adding new physical drives or making use of unused space on existing drives.
• Synchronous mirroring: Provides storage system-based online, real-time data replication between the storage systems containing primary (local) and secondary (remote) volumes by using synchronous data transfers over Fibre Channel communication links (both storage systems must have licenses for synchronous mirroring).
• Asynchronous mirroring: Provides storage system-based data replication between the storage systems containing primary (local) and secondary (remote) volumes by using asynchronous data transfers over iSCSI or Fibre Channel communication links at set intervals (both storage systems must have licenses for asynchronous mirroring).

Note: The synchronous and asynchronous mirroring features of the ThinkSystem DE6000F interoperate with other ThinkSystem DE Series storage arrays.
Software maintenance is included in the ThinkSystem DE6000F base warranty and optional warranty extensions, which provides 3-year software support with the option to extend it up to 5 years in 1-year or 2- year increments (see Warranty and support for details).

Management

The DE6000F supports the following management interfaces:

• ThinkSystem System Manager, a web-based interface via HTTPS for single-system management, that runs on the storage system itself and requires only a supported browser, so there is no need for a separate console or plug-in. For more information, see the System Manager Online Help.
• ThinkSystem SAN Manager, a host-installed GUI-based application, for centralized management of multiple storage systems. For more information, see the SAN Manager Online Help .
• ThinkSystem DE Series Storage Plugin for vCenter. For more information, see the DE Series venter Plugin Online Help.
• Command line interface (CLI) via SSH or through serial console. For more information, see the CLI Online Help.
• Syslog, SNMP, and e-mail notifications.
• Optional Lenovo XClarity Administrator support for discovery, inventory, and monitoring.

Health Check supports Lenovo-branded server, storage, and networking devices, as well as select Lenovo- supported products from other vendors that are sold by Lenovo or a Lenovo-Authorized Reseller.
  • Some regions might have different warranty terms and conditions than the standard warranty. This is due to local business practices or laws in the specific region. Local service teams can assist in explaining region- specific terms when needed. Examples of region-specific warranty terms are second or longer business day parts delivery or parts-only base warranty.
  • If warranty terms and conditions include onsite labor for repair or replacement of parts, Lenovo will dispatch a service technician to the customer site to perform the replacement. Onsite labor under base warranty is limited to labor for replacement of parts that have been determined to be field-replaceable units (FRUs).

Parts that are determined to be customer-replaceable units (CRUs) do not include onsite labor under base warranty.
If warranty terms include parts-only base warranty, Lenovo is responsible for delivering only replacement parts that are under base warranty (including FRUs) that will be sent to a requested location for self-service. Parts-only service does not include a service technician being dispatched onsite. Parts must be changed at customer’s own cost and labor and defective parts must be returned following the instructions supplied with the spare parts.
