IBM’s Spectrum Virtualize is now Storage Virtualize and v8.6.0 is now available for download on FixCentral. And add:
- Inline data corruption detection – By computing the Shannan entropy of the data stream, IBM can find early warning that the data stream may be under attack.
- SVC support for safeguarded copies in stretched cluster configurations. Not only is IBM able to support SGC when using VDM, but it also increased the capacity that can be managed by ESC (Extended Stretched Cluster) by 10x.
- Multithreaded iSCSI kernel module. A single kernel module driving all iSCSI connections/ports was the bottleneck for maximizing iSCSI performance. Significant increases are now possible in proportion to the number of cores in the box.
- NVMe-TCP support. In addition to existing iSCSI, iSER, RoCEv2, and iWarp support, IBM now allows one or more Ethernet ports to run some or all of these protocols, including NVMe-TCP. The user can oversubscribe his 100Gb port as almost all Ethernet card slot restrictions have been removed.
