Feature bundles

Enclosure software for the DM3010H is available in the following bundles of features:

* Requires the encryption version of ONTAP. See the ONTAP software section.
** Not available in PRC.

The features are summarized as follows: 

• RAID-4, RAID-DP, and RAID-TEC data protection: Provides the flexibility to choose the level of data protection required and helps improve performance and availability with built-in spare capacity and by distributing data across all physical drives in the aggregate, sustaining to up to one (RAID-4), two (RAID-DP), or three (RAID-TEC) concurrent drive failures. 
• Thin provisioning: Optimizes efficiency by allocating storage space based on the minimum space required by each application at any given time, so that applications consume only the space they are actually using, not the total space that has been allocated to them, which allows customers to purchase storage they need today and add more as application requirements grow. 
• Compression: Provides transparent inline and post-process data compression to reduce the amount of storage that customers need to purchase and manage. 
• Deduplication: Performs general-purpose deduplication for removal of redundant data to reduce the amount of storage that customers need to purchase and manage. 
• Snapshots: Enables creation of read-only copies of data for backup, parallel processing, testing, and development, and have the copies available almost immediately. 
• Encryption: Provides software-based encryption for data at rest for enhanced data security with the traditional drives and embedded key management (requires the encryption-capable version of the ONTAP software). 
• Balanced placement: Provides automated workload distribution across the cluster to help increase utilization and performance. 
• Dynamic capacity expansion: Allows the capacity of a volume or aggregate to be expanded by adding new physical drives. 
• Adaptive Quality of Service: Simplifies operations and maintains consistent workload performance by defining QoS policies and automatically adjusting storage resources to respond to workload changes. 
• SnapRestore: Enables quick recovery of data by reverting a local volume or file to its previous state from a particular snapshot copy stored on the file system. 
• FlexClone: References snapshot metadata to create writable point-in-time copies of a volume. 
• FlexVol: Provides abstraction layer between the logical volume and its physical location in the storage array. 
• FlexCache: Speeds up access to data and offloads traffic from heavily accessed volumes for read-intensive workloads by placing frequently used data in cache locally or remotely (closer to the point of client access) and serving the data to the clients directly from cache without accessing the data source. 
• SnapMirror asynchronous replication: Provides storage system-based data replication between the storage systems containing source (local) and destination (remote) volumes by using asynchronous (at specified regular intervals) data transfers over IP communication links. 
• SyncMirror data protection: Adds extra level of data protection and availability by mirroring a pair of RAID aggregates. 
• Trusted Platform Module (TPM): For encryption enabled systems.  The encryption keys for the onboard key manager (OKM) are no longer stored in the boot device, but instead are stored in the physical TPM for systems so equipped, offering greater security and protection. Moving to the TPM is a nondisruptive process.
• NVMe over TCP Protocol: Enables NVMe over TCP
• Data Protection Optimized (DPO): Increases the amount of concurrent SnapMirror sessions per node, as well as improving SnapMirror performance to the cluster.
• SnapMirror synchronous replication: Provides storage system-based data replication between the storage systems containing source (local) and destination (remote) volumes by using synchronous (as soon as the data is written to the source volume)
• FlexGroup: Enables a single volume to span across multiple clustered storage arrays to maximize storage capacity and automate load distribution. New to ONTAP 9.11: FlexGroups can now be created as SnapLock volumes.
• SnapVault disk-based storage backup: Enables data stored on multiple systems to be backed up to a central, secondary system quickly and efficiently as read-only snapshot copies. 
• SnapCenter: Provides application- and virtual machine-aware backup and restoration of data by using the Snapshots technology and leverages the SnapMirror capabilities of storage systems to provide onsite or offsite backup set mirroring for disaster recovery. 
• ONTAP S3: Expands the DG/DM Series unified story and allows customers to manage, block, file, and object data from one interface. Customers can now natively store data in S3 buckets onboard the DG/DM Series. 
• SnapMirror S3: Enables you to protect buckets in ONTAP S3 object stores using familiar SnapMirror mirroring and backup functionality. Requires ONTAP 9.11 or later on both source and destination clusters. Requires the Unified Premium Bundle.
• SnapMirror Cloud: A backup and recovery technology designed for ONTAP users who want to transition their data protection workflows to the cloud. SnapMirror Cloud is an extension to the family of SnapMirror replication technologies. While SnapMirror is frequently used for ONTAP-to-ONTAP backups, SnapMirror Cloud uses the same replication engine to transfer Snapshot copies for ONTAP to S3-compliant object storage backups.
• Multitenant Key Management (MTKM): Provides the ability for individual tenants or storage virtual machines (SVMs) to maintain their own keys through KMIP for NVE. With multitenant external key management, you can centralize your organization’s key management functions by department or tenant while inherently confirming that keys are not stored near the assets. This approach decreases the possibility of compromise.
• Anti-ransomware: Uses workload analysis in NAS (NFS and SMB) environments to proactively detect and warn about abnormal activity that might indicate a ransomware attack. When an attack is suspected, anti-ransomware also creates new Snapshot backups, in addition to existing protection from scheduled Snapshot copies. New to ONTAP 9.11: Optional multi-admin verification to approve administration functions that could result in data loss.

Optional Extended features also available via Feature on Demand (FoD) (see the Extended ONTAP features section)

• FabricPool: FabricPool is a hybrid storage solution that uses an all flash (all SSD) aggregate as the performance tier and an object store as the external capacity tier. Data in a FabricPool is stored in a tier based on whether it is frequently accessed or not. Using a FabricPool helps you reduce storage cost without compromising performance, efficiency, or protection.
• No license is required when tiering to StorageGRID or ONTAP S3

Software maintenance is included in the DM3010H warranty and support (see Warranty and support for details).

Extended ONTAP features

FabricPool is an optional extended feature. To obtain this feature license, order the part numbers as listed in the following table. 

* Field upgrade only; no factory installation.

The ThinkSystem DM3010H supports the following management interfaces:

• Lenovo ThinkSystem Storage Manager, a web-based interface via HTTPS for single-system management or centralized management of the cluster of systems, that runs on the storage system itself and requires only a supported browser (Microsoft Internet Explorer, Google Chrome, or Mozilla Firefox), so there is no need for a separate console or plug-in.
• Command line interface (CLI) via SSH or through serial console.
• Syslog, SNMP, and e-mail notifications.
• Optional Lenovo XClarity for discovery, inventory, monitoring, and alerts.

The following table lists the management port cable option.
