In this example Storage Layout (taken from the NetApp Lab
on Demand ‘SnapCenter for Enterprise Applications: Microsoft Exchange”) we
have:
1 x SnapCenter Server
1 x Client Access Server
3 x Mailbox Servers (MB1,
MB2, MB3)
2 x Clusters (cluster1
and cluster2)
2 x SVMs (svm1
on cluster 1 and svm2 on cluster2)
Note: MB1 and MB2 are on SVM1 while MB3 is on SVM2.
Note: SVMs are iSCSI (and CIFS) enabled with iSCSI
LIFs, and SVM admin/mgmt. LIF (and
CIFS LIF.)
In the below we use drive letters for the mount points.
In a real-world environment, you’d run out of drive letters, so would mount the
LUNs into a drive.
Storage Layout
Note: This is a
copied storage layout and is just for ideas. I don’t mention which Mailbox
Server has the active/passive database copies (actually, all active on MB2...)
Also, I don’t think the naming is optimal (but, after all, it was for a lab.)
