Blank Isilon Configuration Guide in Excel Format

Greetings!

Many of the documents and the ILT's refer to a setup document known as the Isilon Configuration Guide, which is an Excel doc that we can sit down with our customers and go over the details of our Isilon Designs with the customer before we hand it off to our Implementation team to deploy the Isilon, as per our design created with the customer.

Where can I find this document?  I've been looking around on support, the community hubs, and the partner portals, but still unable to find a copy of this.  Where can EMC Partners get this document for our Isilon gigs?

Hi Bob,

I recently came across this same question in another group. I believe I found the document you are looking for although I can't confirm that it is the most up to date version:

https://www.emc.com/auth/rcoll/servicekitdocument/CG_Isilon_PS-CUS-ISILON.xlsx

I did put in a request to find the most up to date version and get it added to the Solve generator which can be found in the Partner Portal.

I will provide an update once I hear back from Solve.

One example from the Isilon Site Preparation and Planning Guide.

https://www.emc.com/collateral/TechnicalDocument/docu52911.pdf

Page 32

Your EMC Isilon project team will help you complete the Configuration Guide worksheet, which documents technical details that will be needed for the installation and implementation of your Isilon cluster.

It is also referred to in great detail in the Isilon vILT (I'm assuming the in-person ILT as well) slide decks and lectures.

Now, all this said, I did find the same document that you referred to above.  For those trying to get to the document, I believe you do need Partner Portal level access on your EMC account.  It is sitting in the Isilon service kits section, not support.emc.com, so that is why I wasn't able to find it before. 

It may be viewed as a pre-sales document, but on the delivery side, I do see value of having the document available on support, since it is referred to as a customer deliverable.

Hi Bob,

SolVe and the Isilon Document Feedback group are working with me on this. They asked for an example of the documents that mention the Isilon Installation Guide. I have limited access to pre-production documentation so my searches are coming up empty. I know I have seen it referenced myself though, and clearly the document exists. Do you have an example of a document that references the Isilon Installation Guide that I can pass along to the teams?

Thank you.
