The S3200 storage system offers high levels of system and data availability with the following
technologies:
Dual-active RAID controllers with low latency cache mirroring

Dual-port drives (HDDs and SSDs) with automatic drive failure detection and rapid RAID rebuild with

global hot spares
Redundant hardware, including host ports, controller modules, and power supplies and fans

Hot-swappable and customer replaceable components, including controllers, power supplies with

fans, and drives
Automated path failover support for the data path between the host and the drives with multipathing

software
Non-disruptive controller firmware upgrades for dual controller configurations with multipathing

The following functions are included with every S3200:
Intelligent Real-time Tiering for HDDs

Storage tiering helps optimize storage use with intelligent data placement to improve system
performance, reduce costs, and simplify management. The S3200 automatically and dynamically
moves frequently accessed data to higher performing HDDs in the system without manually creating
and managing storage tier policies.
RAID levels 0, 1, 5, 6, and 10

Provide the flexibility to choose the level of data protection that is required.
Virtualized storage pools

Enables rapid, flexible storage provisioning and simple configuration changes. Stored data is
distributed across all drive groups in the pool (wide striping), which helps improve performance, lower
latency, and achieve higher volume capacities. When a new drive group is added to the pool, the
system performs automatic rebalancing to use all drives in the pool for better performance.
Thin provisioning

Optimizes efficiency by allocating drive storage space in a flexible manner among multiple
applications, based on the minimum space that is required by each application at any specific time.
With thin provisioning, applications use only the space they are actually using, not the total space that
was allocated to them, which allows clients to purchase storage they need today and add storage as
application requirements grow.
SSD Read Cache

An extension of the controller's cache to improve performance of read-centric workloads.
Rapid RAID Rebuild

Helps significantly decrease the time to recover lost data by rebuilding only the stripe where the
corruption occurred, not the empty space or other stripes.
Snapshots

Enables creation of copies of data for backup, parallel processing, testing, and development, and
have the copies available almost immediately. Base software supports up to 128 snapshot targets per
system.

Lenovo Storage S3200 4
The S3200 storage capabilities can be expanded with optional licensed functions. Each optional S3200
function is licensed on a per-system basis and covers controller enclosure and all attached expansion
units.
The following optional licensed functions are available:
Intelligent Real-time Tiering for SSDs

The SSD tiering upgrade option makes it easy and economical to deploy hybrid storage by
dynamically moving frequently accessed data to SSDs in the system, which results in flash drive
performance without manually creating and managing storage tier policies.
Snapshots upgrade

The snapshot upgrade options increase the supported number of snapshot targets to 512 or 1,024 per
system.
The S3200 supports the following management interfaces:
Web-based graphical user interface (GUI) via HTTP that requires only a supported browser (Microsoft

Internet Explorer, Google Chrome, or Mozilla Firefox), so there is no need for a separate console or
plug-in
Command line interface (CLI) via Telnet or SSH or through Direct Connect USB

HTTP scripting interface with XML encoding

SNMP and email notifications

The following types of RAID controller modules are available:
S3200 SAS RAID Controllers

S3200 FC and iSCSI RAID Controllers

S3200 SAS RAID Controllers provide direct SAS attachment for up to four hosts with a supported SAS
HBA that is installed in the host. Each S3200 SAS Controller has four 6/12 Gb SAS ports with Mini-SAS
HD (SFF-8644) connectors.
S3200 FC and iSCSI RAID Controllers provide SAN based iSCSI or FC connectivity to the hosts with a
supported software initiator or HBA installed. Each S3200 FC and iSCSI Controller has two built-in CNCs
that have two SFP/SFP+ ports each for a total of four SFP/SFP+ ports per RAID controller. Ports on the
CNC must have the same connectivity type, and different CNCs might have different connectivity types.
The Converged Network Controller supports the following storage connectivity protocols, depending on
the SFP/SFP+ transceivers that are installed:
1 Gb iSCSI with 1 GbE RJ-45 SFP optical modules

1/10 Gb iSCSI with 10 GbE SW SFP+ optical modules with LC connectors

10 Gb iSCSI with 10 GbE SFP+ DAC cables

4/8 Gb FC with 8 Gb FC SW SFP+ optical modules with LC connectors

4/8/16 Gb FC with 16 Gb FC SW SFP+ optical modules with LC connectors

Notes:
Both ports on the same CNC on the S3200 FC and iSCSI RAID Controller must have the same

connectivity type (the same type of SFP/SFP+ modules or DAC cables).
Hybrid iSCSI and FC connectivity or 1 Gb and 10 Gb iSCSI connectivity is supported on a per CNC

basis; that is, each of two CNCs on the RAID controller is configured with the different types of
transceivers.
For dual-controller configurations, both RAID controllers in the system must be of the same type, and

they must have matching port configurations (that is, the matching ports on both RAID controllers
must have SFP/SFP+ modules of the same type).
Both SAS controllers and FC and iSCSI controllers have one 6 Gb SAS x4 expansion port (Mini-SAS
SFF-8088 connector) for the attachment of the E1012 and E1024 expansion enclosures.
