Q

Redundant array of independent (or
inexpensive) disks (RAID) levels

A

-ensure data isn’t corrupted or lost (parity)
-ensures that 1+ disk failures can be handled by an array without losing data
-used multiple disks with data Striped or Mirrored
->striped = spread across disks
->mirrored = completely copied

-combine RAID methods to increase redundancy
->RAID 0+1, RAID 1+0, RAID 5+1, ETC

Q

UPS

A

Uninterruptible power supply

-SHORT TERM backup power
-EX: blackouts, brownouts, surges

-features;
->auto shutdown
->battery capacity
->outlets
->phone line suppression

-UPS types;
->Offline/Standby UPS
–>Line-interactive UPS
–>On-line/Double-conversion UPS

Q

Dual power supply

A

-provide pwr 4 longer outages
-ensure pwr supply failure won’t disable a server

-Redundancy
–>Internal server pwr supplies
–>External pwr circuits

-Each pwr supply can handle 100% of the load (Would normally run at 50% of the load)

-Hot-swappable
–>Replace a faulty pwr supply without powering down

Q

PDUs (Managed power distribution units)

A

-Provide multiple pwr outlets
–>Usually in a rack

-Often include monitoring and ctrl
->Manage pwr capacity
->Enable/disable individual outlets

Q

Raid 0

A

-striping without parity
-data spread across all devices in the array

Advantages
-high performance
-better I/O performance
-all capacity used

Disadvantages
-no fault tolerance
-all data is lost if a drive is lost

39
Q

Striped

A

-spread across disks

40
Q

Mirrored

A

-completely copied

41
Q

RAID 1

A

-mirroring
-all data copied exactly to another drive/s

Advantages
-duplicates data 4 fault tolerance
-high speeds from multiple drives
-data available if a drive fails

Disadvantages
-requires twice the disk space

42
Q

RAID 5

A

-striping with parity
-data striped (spread across disks)
-one drive used for parity (check sum) of the data
-parity spread across drives and data

Advantages
-fault tolerant
-only requires an additional disk 4 redundancy
-data reads fast
-data writes a little slower
-drive failures can be rebuilt as long as only one drive fails

Disadvantages
-only tolerates a single drive failure at a time
-rebuilding arrays after a drive loss can be slow + impact performance

43
Q

RAID 6

A

-striping with double parity
-like RAID 5 BUT additional parity stored on another drive

Advantages
-like RAID5, BUT allows more than one drive to fail at a time

Disadvantages
-slower write performance than RAID 5
-rebuilding arrays after drive loss can be slow + impact performance

44
Q

RAID 10

A

-mirroring and striping
-data striped across 2+ drive, then mirrored to same # of drives
-sometimes written as 1+0

Advantages
-combines advantages disadvantages of RAID 0 and RAID 1

Disadvantages
-combines advantages disadvantages of RAID 0 and RAID 1

45
Q

Without parity

A

-data does not have redundancy or fault tolerance
