C is the old designator for Cluster. A couple of years ago NetApp decided to try to eliminate some confusion caused by common terms (instead they generally created more). They no longer call their cluster a cluster, instead they call it an Active/Active configuration. They no longer call their filer head a head, instead it is a storage controller. They no longer call their filer a filer, instead it is a storage appliances.
Are you sufficiently confused yet?

Hi,
thanks! Someone pointed this out as well.
I thought that A means "Alone"....cause some systems on specs are labled as c for cluster.
But the detailed text gives more information about the test-setup.

a FAS6030A is two heads! so a FAS6030 has 2 CPUs and a FAS6030A has 4 CPUs
Hopefully that helps.

Hi,
i tried that as well, but again, Spec says a FAS6030A has 4 CPU with single-core (
http://www.spec.org/sfs97r1/results/res2006q2/sfs97r1-20060425-00258.html)
but a poster i have from netapp says it has two and cluster has 4.
So still i am unsure...
Thanks and regards
Jochen

Browse the NFS benchmarks in specbench.org, they include a hardware list including CPU

Hi toasters,
i am wondering if anybody has an official overview of netapps controller hardware, and espacially the CPU types.
I found different sources telling me different things. e.g. i found an article on wikipedia (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/NetApp_Filer) saying
that
the FAS6040 is one die with dual-core. A poster from netapp states that
it
has two single-core dies.
Can anybody sched some light onto this?? My biggest interesst is how the FAS6040 compares to the FAS6030.
Regards
Jochen
