Multipathing: Performance and
Redundancy:
Multipathing technology combines both failover and aggregated link
throughput. It works with a dual RAID controller Fibre Channel
storage solution and a host adapter card with a dedicated
multipathing driver. Both controllers can aggregate performance
across multiple Fibre Channel connections to the
storage—effectively doubling throughput. Also, the driver
detects if a controller fails or if a Fibre Channel cable is
unplugged, and reroutes the signal through the working controller.
The controller is also hot-swappable so you can replace it on the
fly. Multipathing technology brings performance as well as
reliability, reducing downtime and insuring continuous workflow
with maximum performance.
LaCie and ATTO:
While LaCie has already developed multipathing drivers for Linux
and Windows for many high-performance Fibre Channel cards, they
have now partnered with ATTO to create a custom multipathing driver
for Macintosh. The ATTO Celerity 8Gb/s is a highly reliable host
bus adapter and features an intuitive GUI for advanced
troubleshooting and performance-tuning. Purchase the ATTO Celerity
from LaCie for a fully redundant Fibre Channel solution, as well as
access to 12big premium local support** to help you maximize
performance.
12big Rack Fibre 8:
The 12big Rack Fibre 8 features near-silent operation and
high-performance throughput combined with Enterprise-Class
components. Use the ATTO Celerity Fibre Channel card together with
the dedicated LaCie multipathing driver to achieve 1280MB/s with 12
drives*** only or 2100MB/s with one expansion chassis.
