Need Opinion Please ...


HI

My customer has VNX5500 and will use it for below pourpose.

・CIFS

・SnapSure

・ReplicatorV2(Local/Remote)

・CAVA

・Audit

Because they think would be easyer / cost affective  to put PFS /SFS /Ckpt  ( local replication)

in one nas_pool ...

Is anybody knows this kind of plan would work or not .. Or advise me he should  create seperate

Pool for PFS/SFS/Ckpt ....( too riskey? .. )

Yes you can use one pool

Two pools are better if you are using FAST Cache

See the VNX unified best practices for performance doc on support.emc.com

how many drives ?  Don't get too carried away if you have a limited number of drives. More drives in a pool = more performance.
