3958 DD4This is a newer, higher performance server available in December
2010. This server is based on the IBM System x3850 X5 Type 7145-AC1. When used as a server in the TS7650G, its machine type and model are 3958 DD4. Use this machine type and model for service purposes.
3958 DD3This is a higher performance server available in March 2009. This
server is based on the IBM System x3850 M2 Type 7233. When used as a server in the TS7650G, its machine type and model are 3958 DD3. Use this machine type and model for service purposes.
3958 DD1This is the original server available in August 2008. This server is
based on the IBM System x3850 M2 Type 7141. When used as a server in the TS7650G, its machine type and model are 3958 DD1. Use this machine type and model for service purposes.
3958 AP1 This server is based on the IBM System x3850 X5 Type 7145-AC1 at
the ProtecTIER version 2.5 release. When used as a server in the TS7650 Appliance, its machine type and model are 3958 AP1. Use this machine type and model for service purposes.

XIV Connection
XIV does not support direct-connect: always use a SAN switch
Paths from TS7650 to XIV
• Minimum connectivity for maximum performance is 1 path per XIV interface module (a fully configured XIV has 6 interface modules)
• Suggest 2 paths per interface for redundancy
• TS7650 FTSS can provide an XIV configuration whitepaper to help

TS7680 for Mainframe Environments
Provides a FICON tape device interface as access to ProtecTIER system
Uses the TS7650G for fast, efficient de-duplicated backend storage
Uses the availability of the clustered TS7650G
Packaged as a Gateway, using any disk array qualified for the TS7650G
Provides a zSeries Virtualization engine which is:
– Scalable to large capacities – through large storage capacities and de-duplication
– Highly available in a single footprint• Redundant controllers sharing
single disk repository– Disaster Recovery capabilities– Lightweight
• Quicker code installs• Focused functionality

TS7650/TS7680 Differences
Shelf / visibility
TS7650 – Volumes visible at one site at a time only. Think of them as being moved by truck.
TS7680 – Volumes replicated to DR site are visible and R/O.
Replication policies by VOLSER (barcode)
TS7650 – Applications use specific barcodes and replication policies can be created for specific uses.
TS7680 – z/OS applications use one common scratch pool for all applications and use of the VOLSER for creating replication policies is not practical.

System i Support
AS400 & BRMS qualification, Released in June 09.
Available as a standard patch upgrade installation
Patch is compatible with all current 3958 models, no new HW requirements or additional fees
Supports iSeries OS versions: V5R4M0, V5R4M5, V6R1M0
Operability – a single ProtecTIER system can be shared between open-systems hosts and AS400, but cannot share a library
TS3500 emulation supported
2.4.1.0 supports IBM i IOPless attachment
