Enliven Hot spares for RAID 6 0 Yesterday, 5:51 AM EST by Enliven
Thread started: Yesterday, 5:51 AM EST  Watch
Can anyone suggest how many hot spares are required for a RAID 6 array?

Current intention is to configure as a DAS with with 2 Disk Groups - RAID 6 for SAS Drives and RAID 6 for SATA Drives with the following provisions:
1 X MD3000i - 15 X SAS
1 X MD1000 - 15 X SAS
1 X MD1000 - 15 X SATA

TIA

For an OLTP SQL workload, when making a RAID 10 with 8 drives on a PERC 6, what is the preferred span size to optimize for performance. The utility asks "physical drives per span" but I can't find any documentation that compares performance for using 2 versus 4. Thanks!

I am looking to see if the EqualLogic support Microsoft Clustering for SQL 2008 when using Hyper-V. If so were can I can white papers supporting this. According to the Microsoft website in order to support SQL 2008 Clustering with Hyper-V they need RAW or pass thru disks on the ISCSI SAN, is this possible with the EqualLogic, if so, how? Thanks...Comments appreciated
