We use an EQL PS6100 array for our VDI environment. The issue is it is taking up a lot of space even after I deleted the VDI's. How do I reclaim this space in the group management?

Hi, we have a PS6100 which was populated with 12 X HDD. This was originally RAID10, and we converted to RAID6. We needed more capacity still and have installed more ST3000NM0023 drives (x6) of them, of which the capacity has dynamically increased. We then couldnt find any more of these model drives,

We have both Equallogic and Compellent storage in our env. and we use both SAN HQ and Storage Manager to manage the storage array.

Good afternoon, My environment has quite a number of different EqualLogic SANs in it that are all behind on their firmware, about 3 or 4 versions behind. We know they need to be updated as we are getting alerts letting us know that our Disk Drive Firmware also needs to be updated.

L.S., I've obtained a Dell Equallogic PS6000 chassis with 2x Control Module type 7. Firmware is version 7.1.7 (uname -a). After connecting with a serial console cable, and performing a reset to factory defaults, the unit is still in some sort of initialization state (message: "The storage array is

Hi, we have an old PS4100 (well two actually), configured in a Group. We needed to gain space to allow us to carry out a re-jig of the fabric. The conversion from RAID10 to RAID6 is 33% through, and at the start we also ticked the box to 'Immediately expand group capacity'. The issue we have is that

We have an EqualLogic group comprised of 6 members. There are 4 pools in the group. All of the disk arrays are running firmware version 8.1.11. We have moved all data off 2 members and I would like to remove both members from the group without impacting volumes on the other 4 members because they h

Hello! I have recently purchased a new Compellent Storage array that I am monitoring through Storage Manager 2016 R3. I am able to connect my old PS groups to Storage Manager, but cant seem to find any IO Usage or Charting data. Is this even possible or do I still have to use SANHQ for that? &n

Are these cables compatible/supported for 10GB iSCSI connectivity between the PS6210X and Dell N4032F switches?I've already purchased the array and two N4032F switches. I wanted the non-F model of the N4032 switches and was going to use 10GBASE-T all the way through but the fiber models got ordered

Hi, I have recently moved my clustered VMs to some new nodes (from Dell R710s to R740s). The VMs run on a 3 node Hyper-V 2012 R2 cluster. The VM files are stored on Dell EqualLogic SANs. Some VMs are on CSVs while others are on dedicated LUNs/volumes. The ones with dedicated LUNs are the ones that

I have a PS6500 in its own RAID6 pool with around 50TB used. I need to repurpose this array for a different location, so I need to move all its data to a different pool. My initial plan was to merge our two RAID6 pools and then move the 6500 back out to its own pool again while leaving all the dat
