Award of Bid, Storage Area Network Hardware
BACKGROUND
Staff has found It increasmgly difficult to keep up WIth the network storage
requirements of city users usmg dedicated storage deVICes Within our network
computer servers. The Implementation of a storage area network will centralize all
computer storage under one platform that will allow for real time adjustments of
storage space as each department's needs expand. In addition, this platform will
also be utilized to provide hourly snapshot backups of critical CIty data.
The MIS staff has contacted 8 major storage area network vendors for product
demonstrations, documentation, and government references. Based on this
research, Equallogic was chosen for its ability to deliver a high performance
solution using lower cost hardware. Quotes for the product were received from
Computer Integrated Technologies, a local Equallogic partner, and Dell
Computers, who recently purchased the company Staff recommends accepting
the quote from Computer Integrated Technologies as It is the lower of the two
bids and the vendor is a company that has a long relationship with the city Due to
the reduced cost of the initial hardware and software for phase one, staff will be
able to implement the second phase, which is a secondary disaster recovery
storage site, WIthin the project funding for 2008. The second phase was budgeted
for 2009
RECCOMMENDATION
Staff recommends the purchase of an Equallogic Model PS5000E Storage Area
Network which will be utilized to replace existing storage hardware installed in
our network computer servers. This project was originally submitted as a 2007
CIP item, but was moved to 2008 Funds were approved in the 2008 CIP

Description
This project funds the purchase of a storage area network, (SAN) which will gradually replace all internal disk drives in existing netWork servers.
The storage area network is a central storage device made up of individual storage modules, and managed from a single console. The SAN allows
disk storage to be modified as storage needs change, without any downtime for city users.
.TustlJicDtlDn
The need for digital storage space for city documentation and applications is growing at a rate of SOGS to 100GS per year Existing storage space
is becoming difficult to manage on individual network servers. Internal storage utilization is inefficient, and requires system downtime to
reconfigure. SAN storage allows for real time reconfiguation as well as the ability to make real time copies for redundancy and for daytime backup
processes. The initial San installation would reside in the server room at city hall. Additional storage units would be added in later years at other
city buildings to facilitate disaster recovery A 1.8 Terabyte redundant SAN is proposed to be implemented in year one, with a second single unit
added in years 2 and 3. As each unit is added, the overall performance of the SAN as a whole is greatly increased.
