How can I calculate effective capacity for block data?

Applies to

NetApp Element software

Answer

Total cluster cluster capacity - cluster metadata capacity = total capacity for block data

Example:

For a 6 H610S-4 storage node cluster:

• 72 total drives
• 6 metadata drives
• 3.84 TB per drive

Total cluster capacity = 72 * 3.84 TB = 276.48 TB

Cluster metadata capacity = 6 * 3.84 TB = 23.04 TB

Total capacity for block data = 276.48 TB - 23.04 TB = 253.44 TB
