7% is the recommended minimum amount of Flash that a technical architect should specify when designing a Dell Unity XT 480 using the System Designer option of Sizer. This is because, Unity XT storage systems require a certain amount of flash storage to handle system-wide functions such as metadata, snapshots and other storage services.

The PowerStore X model configuration provides a hypervisor layer in addition to block storage.

Access-based enumeration is the attribute that must be used at the share level to restrict the share content visibility of a Dell Unity file system based on the access rights. Access-based Enumeration (ABE) is a feature that allows you to hide files and folders from users who do not have the necessary permissions to access them. When ABE is enabled, users only see the files and folders that they have permission to access. This helps to prevent users from accidentally accessing data that they should not have access to, and it helps to maintain the security and integrity of the data on the file system.

Based on the customer's monthly data access profile, where block data is accessed infrequently but frequently during month-end reporting, the technical architect should recommend a hybrid solution using FAST VP and FAST Cache. FAST VP (Fully Automated Storage Tiering for Virtual Pools) is a feature that automatically tiers data across different types of storage media based on access patterns. With FAST VP, frequently accessed data will be automatically moved to faster storage media such as flash, while infrequently accessed data will be moved to slower, less expensive storage media such as disk. FAST Cache is a feature that increases the performance of Unity storage systems by caching frequently accessed data on flash storage. With this hybrid solution, the customer will have the best of both worlds: high-performance flash storage for frequently accessed data, and lower-cost disk storage for infrequently accessed data. This will help the customer to improve performance during month-end reporting and save costs for infrequently accessed data. It's important to note that this design should be evaluated based on the specific requirements, workloads and expected growth of the customer.

The minimum recommended Flash capacity is at least 5% of the pool capacity.

Choosing the highest capacity flash drives when designing a Dell Unity XT All-Flash system can provide several benefits, including lower physical space, power and cooling requirements. Additionally, higher capacity drives can also improve system boot time, reduce maintenance and rebuild time, and decrease wear-leveling, performance, and redundancy requirements.
