Data At Rest Encryption

• Controller based encryption of all data on the system – Included with Dell EMC Unity All Flash and Hybrid systems – Enabled at time of install

• Encryption/decryption occurs at the SAS controller – Supported on all SAS ports and SAS SLICs

• FIPS 140-2 Level 1 compliant encryption using Advanced Encryption Standard (AES) algorithms


Data At Rest Encryption

• Data encryption without drive limitations – Allows use of any drive type

• No impact to data services as all encryption takes place at the SAS controller level

• Little to no performance impact with encryption enabled


Data At Rest Encryption External Key Manager

• In the next major Dell EMC Unity OE release, external key management is supported via KMIP

– System prevented from booting unless key server and ignition key (KEK) are present

• KMIP (Key Management Interoperability Protocol) is emerging as the standard for external key management solutions

– Communication protocol that defines message formats for cryptographic keys on a key management server

• Feature does not require additional license on Dell EMC Unity system


Data At Rest Encryption External Key Manager – Supported Vendors

• License purchase required for KMIP vendor applications

• Supported external key server vendors: – Gemalto – SafeNet KeySecure – IBM – Security Key Lifecycle Manager

Unified Snapshots Overview

• Provides point-in-time snapshot of the data – Redirect on write technology – Retention Policy:

› Pool Automatic Deletion Policy › Retain for x Hours/Days › No automatic deletion (Only for manual Snapshots)

• Same snapshot technology for both Block and File resources

• Snapshots can be created manually or via a schedule


Unified Snapshots Source of Snapshots

• LUN

• LUN Consistency Group

• File System

• VMware Datastore

• Another Snapshot – Hierarchical snapshots

› LUNs / File Systems – 10 Levels deep

Dell EMC Unity Thin Clones

• A Thin Clone is a read-write copy of a Thin Block resource which shares blocks with the parent object

– Includes LUNs, LUNs within Consistency Groups, and VMFS Datastores – Supported on all Dell EMC Unity models and Dell EMC UnityVSA

(Professional and Community version)

• All data services remain available on the parent objects on creation of the Thin Clone

– Create Thin Clone from Attached Read-Only or Unattached Snapshots

• User is be able to: – Create, refresh, attach, modify and delete a Thin Clone


Dell EMC Unity Thin Clones Benefits

• Space savings – Space consumed by Thin Clone is only changed data – Reduce the cost for application test and development environments

• Can apply data services to Thin Clones: – Host I/O Limits (QoS) – Snapshots

› Create manually › Add a snapshot schedule

– Replication › Creates a full LUN copy on the target side

Synchronous Block Replication Overview

• A rapid response solution in the event of a disaster – Maintain business continuity – Meet service-level objectives

• Synchronous block replication provides a zero Recovery Point Objective (RPO) solution for block resources – Data is mirrored from a source system to a remote destination

system – Over short distances


Synchronous Block Replication Overview

• Synchronous Block Replication is provided for: – LUNs – Consistency Groups – VMFS Datastores

• One source resource to one destination resource

LUN 0 LUN 1 LUN 0 LUN 1 One-Way

or Bi-Directional

Asynchronous Replication Overview

• An asynchronous replication option for protecting Block and File Data – To meet corporate/regulatory requirements

• With asynchronous replication, an RPO is maintained – Goal set to maintain synchronization of data between source and

destination – A factor of time, not data



• Supported Block Resources: – LUNs – Consistency Groups – VMware VMFS Datastores

• Supported File Resources: – File Systems – NAS Servers – VMware NFS Datastores

• Asynchronous Replication is supported between: – Physical systems – A physical system to/from a Dell EMC UnityVSA – Dell EMC UnityVSAs – Pools on a single system – Any combination of the above

Pool 1 Pool 2

File Replication Enhancement

• This feature enables group operations at the NAS Server level – Group operations are propagated from the NAS Server to the file

systems automatically – Works with local and remote asynchronous replication

• Group operations available at the NAS Server level: – Failover, Failover with Sync, Failback, Pause, Resume

• These operations remain available at the file system level

• All other operations (Create, Sync, Delete, and Modify) remain individual commands


Snapshot Shipping

• Extends Asynchronous Replication to support replication of snapshots along with the primary storage resource

• Both user-created and scheduled snapshots can be replicated

• Supported for all primary resources that support Asynchronous Replication:

– LUNs – Consistency Groups – File Systems – VMware VMFS and NFS Datastores


Snapshot Shipping Benefits

• Destination can have a different retention policy – Extended retention periods for compliance (i.e. IRS, HIPAA, etc.)

• Cost Efficient – Replicated snapshots can be deleted from the source system

• Resiliency – Provides the user the ability to store the snapshots in a different

fault domain
