LUN Configuration

Anant — Wed, 04 Jun 2025 15:19:18 GMT

Hi,

I have NetApp 2552 with 17 1TB disks running OnTap 8.2.3P3 7 Mode (Dual Controller)
I have a Dell Server with dual ported HBA card
I have connected each port of Dell Server HBA card with one controller each.
I want to have a LUN (maximum possible size) which can be included in the Volume Group in Dell Server running RHEL 7.
The Disk available will be used for storing mail boxes with Cyrus-IMAP.
Currently I do not have a SAN switch.

Currently, Controller-1 has been configured with one agreegate of 8 disks and controller-2 has been configured with 7 disks (RAID-DP). 2 Disks are Hot Spare

I want to have HA configured with resources which I have.

What are the best options taking into account

Failure of one of the controllers
Failure of one of the HBA card ports.

Thanks in advance.
