Disk Shelf Hardware Overview
optimized cache and write-optimized log operations. This disk shelf features dual, redundant I/
O Modules (IOMs), and dual power supplies with integrated fan modules.
External Read Cache Devices - Read cache devices, installed in disk shelves, are external to
the controller and referred to as external second level adaptive replacement cache (EL2ARC).
When a cluster takeover occurs, read cache remains persistent and sharable between controllers,
enabling read performance to be sustained.
For slot configuration details and minimum software requirements, see “Disk Shelf
Configurations” on page 286.
