You are designing an Isilon 5-node cluster configuration for a customer who wants to store user home directories on the new cluster. Each user has 100 small files of 4KB each, 100 medium sized files of 80KB each, and 100 larger files of 512KB each. How much space is occupied by the medium sized files data blocks on an N+1n cluster?

A customer wants to add Unix users to their cluster, and requires that NFS access be fault-tolerant.
What would you recommend?

You have been working with a customer to size a new Isilon cluster for their environment. You recently determined that a cluster with three X400 nodes with 1TB drives and 48 GB RAM would be a perfect starting point for their workflow, but will have extra capacity. The customer just informed you that they have decided to also use the cluster for a small home directory environment and implement SmartQuotas.
Which configuration changes should you consider?

A hospital is considering using Isilon to store their archived medical images and Genomic Sequencing data. They currently have 56 TB of PACS images and 24 TB of genomic data, and expect to double their capacity requirements this year. They will replicate to a DR cluster, and plan to use N+2 protection. The production workload needs to be run at either site.
Which minimum cluster configuration, at each site, including software, would meet this customer's environment?

The security team at a customer site has created a new requirement that in-flight replication traffic must be encrypted end-to-end. The customer is running OneFS 8.2.1 on their cluster.
What encryption protocol versions does SyncIQ support?
