Description
High-capacity flash drive set
IBM DS8880 offers a high-capacity 1.92 TB flash drive set (feature number 1622) to expand the capacity options for the business class DS8882F and DS8884F offerings.
This high-capacity flash drive is in addition to the already supported 400 GB, 800 GB, 1.6 TB, and 3.2 TB high-performance flash drive sets, and 3.84 TB, 7.68 TB, and 15.36 TB high-capacity flash drives.
Intermixing of high-performance and high-capacity flash drives in the same enclosure is not supported.
The 1.92 TB flash card expands the capacity options for the business class DS8882F and DS8884F offerings, providing a low capacity alternative at competitive cost within high-capacity flash drives.
High-capacity flash drive set
IBM DS8880 offers a new high-capacity 15.36 TB flash drive set (feature number 1625) to provide additional performance options with flexible capacity to address application and business requirements.
This high-capacity flash drive is in addition to the already supported 400 GB, 800 GB, 1.6 TB, and 3.2 TB high-performance flash drive sets, and 3.84 TB and 7.68 TB high-capacity flash drives.
Intermixing of high-performance and high-capacity flash drives in the same enclosure is not supported.
With this added flash option, the maximum flash storage capacity supported per flash enclosure pair is 737.28 TB raw.
Enable write operations for zHyperLink
zHyperLink is a short distance, mainframe attach link. zHyperLink is intended to accelerate Db2 12 for z/OS, update intensive transaction processing, and improve active log write for z/OS. zHyperLink technology delivers low latency by using a new short distance link technology which compliments transactional SAN attached DS8880/F systems. Low latency read and write operations are provided for storage systems within the 150-meter distance requirement using a point to point link from the z14 to the DS8880/F I/O bay. Low I/O latencies deliver value through improved workload elapsed times and faster transactional response times, and contribute to lower scaling costs. The DS8880/F implementation of zHyperLink I/O delivers service times fast enough to enable a synchronous I/O model in high- performance IBM Z servers. zHyperLink writes accelerates Db2 12 for z/OS transaction processing.
Restrictions
- The zHyperLink write capability supports Metro Mirror and HyperSwap within 150-meter distances.
- Asynchronous replication (Global Mirror, zGlobal Mirror (XRC), Global Copy), Safeguarded Copy, DS8882F, and any other 6-core configurations are not supported for zHyperLink write operations.

High-capacity flash drive set
IBM DS8880 offers a new high-capacity 7.68 TB flash drive set (feature number 1624) to provide additional performance options with flexible capacity to address application and business requirements.
This high-capacity flash drive is in addition to the already supported 400 GB, 800 GB, 1.6 TB, and 3.2 TB high-performance flash drive sets, and the 3.84 TB high-capacity flash drive.
Easy Tier has been enhanced to support the use of high-capacity flash drives and will treat them as a separate tier when combined with high-performance flash drives. This enables both types of flash drives to be contained in the same storage pool with Easy Tier promoting the most active data to the high-performance flash drives.
Intermixing of high-performance and high-capacity flash drives in the same enclosure is not supported.
With this added flash option, the maximum flash storage capacity supported per flash enclosure pair is 368.64 TB raw.
FlashCopy support in Transparent Cloud Tiering
Transparent Cloud Tiering currently supports migration and recall of data to simplex and volumes participating in a metro mirrored relationship. This provides the capability to recall data and maintain disaster recovery and high availability positions.
Transparent Cloud Tiering is adding support for migration and recall of data to volumes that are in a FlashCopy relationship, broadening its capabilities and use cases.
IBM Storage Enabler for Containers support
Container technology is a new, up-and-coming technology which enables prepackaged and configured software to be deployed easily in any environment. This simple, flexible technology fits perfectly with the advantages of private and public cloud computing environments.
Due to this lightweight and flexible capability, containers historically have used short-term storage for the application within. As adoption for this grows, there is an inherent need for enterprise capabilities such as disaster recovery, concurrent upgrades, and container movement within the hybrid cloud environment.
IBM Storage Enabler for Containers software, in conjunction with IBM Spectrum Connect 3.4 and an orchestration layer such as Kubernetes or IBM Cloud Private, enables an application to store data separate from the container itself, in persistent, highly available DS8880 block storage.
Transparent cloud tiering
Cloud object storage delivers a solution to consolidate and store various types of unstructured data that is both dense and cost effective, whether on-premise using IBM Cloud Object Storage or a public or hybrid cloud.
IBM DS8880 offers transparent cloud tiering, a software feature that enables users to migrate and recall data directly from the DS8880 to cloud object storage without the data going through the mainframe. With tight integration with IBM DFSMS software, data continues to be managed by DFSMShsm without major changes in the operational model.
The combination of server-less data movement through DS8880 and the efficiencies in DFSMS enable a reduction in CPU processing and frees up MIPS for use by other applications. This also helps with data management across the enterprise system by adding another tier for which cold data can be archived to. With transparent cloud tiering, this additional tier will enable an IBM TS7700 to be the target of DFSMShsm migration data.
Transparent cloud tiering is a software-only enhancement and does not require additional DS8000 hardware as it uses the existing Ethernet ports on DS8000 servers. Microcode support for this function is available for R8.2.3. This support also requires z/OS V2R1 with APAR OA51622 or z/OS V2R2 with APAR OA50667.
In this release, only ECKD data format type is supported and use is restricted to simplex devices only. Configuration to connect the DS8880 to cloud object storage is performed using DSCLI and ISMF panels via a new SMS construct in z/OS.
UNMAP command (VMware support)
VAAI Thin Provisioning Block Space Reclamation (UNMAP) Primitive feature is introduced in vSphere 5.0. This feature is designed to efficiently reclaim deleted space to meet continuing storage needs.
The VMware host will notify the storage device about freed space on a thin-provisioned LUN by sending a SCSI Unmap command. DS8880 will release any entire extents that have been allocated within that freed space.
On DS8880, the extent size is either 16 MB for small extents or 1 GB for large extents. Therefore, for any space to be released, the request must be for at least 16 MB. If the request is not aligned on extent boundaries, then only full extents contained within the requested range will be released.
The UNMAP command can help improve the efficiency of storage management and released space can be claimed for use by other applications.
This function is available for R8.2.3 and also required ESXi version 5.0, or higher, on the host.
The IBM DS8880 family offers three all-flash array models, DS8884F, DS8886F, and DS8888F, to meet the demand for higher speed storage. All-flash arrays deliver higher IOPS and bandwidth with lower power consumption to reduce the total cost of ownership as compared to hybrid or HDD-based solutions.
DS8884F is a single frame, all-flash storage system designed for entry-level customers with small capacity needs looking to boost performance. DS8884F will support the following features:
- Six cores with options of 64 GB, 128 GB, and 256 GB memory combinations

The IBM DS8880 All Flash Family consists of model 984, 985, 986, and 988 that represent the base unit and model 85E, 86E, and 88E that represent the expansion unit.
Physical view
The physical configuration of the DS8880 consists of the following components:
- Base unit: The base unit DS8880 Model 98x provides the rack and packaging that contain a dual processor complex, host adapters, I/O enclosures, power supplies, batteries, and cooling, as well as space for up to 4 flash enclosure pair that contain 48 flash cards can be installed.
- Expansion unit: DS8880 Model 88E provides the rack and packaging
for an additional up to one expansion frames and support up to 4 flash
enclosure pair (two flash enclosures pair that contain 96 flash cards
in the second position model 85E and 86E).
Expansion frames in the second position can also contain additional host adapters, and I/O enclosures. They also contain their own set of power supplies, batteries, and cooling. Expansion frames can only be attached to DS8000 series (16-core, 24-core, or 48-core) controllers for model 85E, 86E, or 88E.
- Host adapters: Host adapters provide the I/O connections between the DS8880 and server/fabric components. Up to sixteen Fibre Channel (SCSI-FCP and FICON host adapters) can be installed in any combination in a DS8880 Model 985/986. Up to thirty-two Fibre Channel (SCSI-FCP and FICON) host adapters can be installed in a DS8880 Model 985/986 system in any combination (16 in the DS8880 base unit and another 16 in the first DS8880 expansion unit). For DS8880 model 984 system can installed up to sixteen Fibre Channel (SCSI-FCP and FICON) in any combination (eight in the DS8880 base unit and another eight in the first DS8880 expansion unit). The Fibre Channel adapters have four or eight ports. They are installed within I/O enclosures and can communicate with both processor complexes.
- Storage facility: A storage facility is composed of a storage server and two or more storage enclosures that are packaged in one or more racks with associated power supplies, batteries, and cooling.
- Storage server: A storage server is composed of two processor complexes, two or more I/O enclosures, and a pair of Rack Power Control (RPC) cards.
- Processor complex: A processor complex controls and manages the storage facility to perform the function of a storage server. The two processor complexes form a redundant pair and execute Licensed Machine Code (LMC) to manage and control the operations and licensed function of the DS8880. The processor complex also has Ethernet connections to allow management functions to be invoked over a network. The new DS8880 provides 6, 8, 16, and 24-core processor complex options within the same model.
Sub-components in a processor complex include:
- Processor: The processor complex contains one or more processors that share a common address space.
- Processor memory: The memory on a processor complex is used to store instructions and data for the processors or is used to store data that is transferred between processor complex memory and I/O adapters within the configuration. Some of the processor memory is used as Nonvolatile Storage (NVS) to store a second copy of write data to help protect against loss of data in the event of a processor or power failure. In addition, some of the processor memory is used for hardware caching to help improve the performance of the processor complex. The DS8884 (6-core) supports up to 256 GB of processor memory and the DS8886 (8-core) supports 128 GB and 256 GB of processor memory, the DS8886 (16-core) supports 256 GB and 512 GB of processor memory, and the DS8886 (24-core) supports 1,024 GB and 2,048 GB of processor memory.
- I/O enclosures: An I/O enclosure provides a way to interconnect
one or more external I/O adapters to the processor complex I/O
interface. The I/O enclosure supports the following types of external
I/O adapters:
- Host adapters: A host adapter supports the attachment of host systems to the storage facility device adapters.
- Storage enclosure: A storage enclosure provides a way to interconnect one or more external storage devices to the I/O interface attached to a device adapter I/O port. Each storage enclosure contains a redundant pair of storage enclosure services cards.
- Flash cards: The flash cards provide additional capacity and performance for the DS8880. Flash cards are installed in a High Performance Flash Enclosure Gen2 pair, in an install group of sixteen flash cards and can be intermixed.

Logical view
To servers, the DS8000 series appears to be a set of disk volumes that can be configured to emulate disk device types that are compatible with the attaching servers.
The storage capacity of the DS8000 series is logically divided into groups of eight physical media that are each configured as either a RAID-5, RAID 6, or RAID-10 array. RAID-6 will be defaulted RAID type for all the storage media. The array is logically formatted to support either:
- Count-key data (3380 or 3390 track format)
- Fixed-block data (either 512 or 520 byte logical blocks)
Once formatted, the arrays are then subdivided into allocable storage units that can be allocated to individual volumes or LUNs that can be assigned to the various attached servers.
The DS8880 logical configuration is created and managed using the IBM System Storage DS Storage Manager, IBM DS Command Line Interface (CLI), or IBM DS Open API and Graphical User Interface (GUI).

(#0606) Flash card sets custom placement indicator
Feature Description ------- ------------------------------------------ 0606 Flash card sets custom placement indicator
This feature gives users the opportunity to manually select high
performance flash enclosure (HPFE) pair (feature #1600) allowing the
flash card sets to be spread across HPFE pair to optimize performance.
Note: If you have ordered HDDs, the e-config system will
allocate the required number of 2.5-inch and 3.5-inch drive enclosures
first. No intermix of different capacity drives within the enclosure
is allowed.
The number of HPFE pair cannot be reduced from the minimum determined by e-config. Also, the total number of HPFE pair cannot be increased above the maximum allowed in the e-config system.
For DS8886 example, where a quantity of four of feature #1610 (400 GB 2.5-inch flash card) is ordered, when feature #0606 is selected, quantity 2 of feature #1600 (HPFE pair) can be manually selected. This will result in first two sets of flash card sets being installed in the first enclosure pair and second sets of being installed in the second enclosure pair, spread on two microbays.
