Fujitsu Training Documentation
Introduction to Unified Storage
NAS Functionality ETERNUS DX S3
Separated SAN (Storage Area Network) and NAS (Network Attached Storage) environments has two main disadvantages
Unified storage provides both functionalities in one system
Consolidation of file based on block based access in a single storage system
Support for Fibre Channel SAN, IP-based SAN (iSCSI) and NAS
Enables storing of file data (shares) and use of block-based I/O (input/output) of enterprise applications
1. There is a need to learn separate
management operations
2. Unable to share resources
