The Huawei OceanStor N8500 Cluster Heads Standard Version (SKU N8500-STD-N2M48G-G8-DC-1) is a dual-node storage head system featuring two CPUs, 48 GB cache, and eight Gigabit Ethernet host ports designed for data center deployments.
This configuration includes two compute nodes, dual Intel® Xeon® CPUs per node, 48 GB shared cache, eight GE front-end ports, and supports DC power inputs.
The dual-node design delivers active-active failover, ensuring continuous access and non-disruptive maintenance by automatically redistributing workloads if one node fails.
The standard version provides 48 GB of high-speed read/write cache per cluster head, accelerating I/O performance for mission-critical applications.
It offers eight Gigabit Ethernet host ports for iSCSI, FCIP, and other IP-based storage protocols, enabling flexible integration with existing networks.
Each node requires a DC power input and standard data-center cooling; the system supports hot-swappable fans and power modules for continuous operation.
SPE61C0200 provides the OceanStor N8500 Base Software Edition, which includes advanced RAID, thin provisioning, and automated tiered storage features.
Built-in RAID 6, snapshot, and remote replication ensure high data availability and rapid recovery in the event of hardware failures or disasters.
Yes, the cluster head can be expanded with additional storage shelves and nodes to scale capacity and performance linearly.
Huawei provides the OceanStor DeviceManager GUI and the eSight unified management platform for centralized monitoring, configuration, and performance tuning.
With dual CPUs, large cache, and eight GE host ports, the N8500 delivers up to hundreds of thousands of IOPS and sustained high throughput for enterprise workloads.
Ideal scenarios include virtualization, database acceleration, AI data lakes, and high-availability file services in large-scale data centers.
Yes, it supports Huawei’s and selected third-party JBOD/JBOF shelves via standard SAS interfaces to extend capacity seamlessly.
Huawei offers a three-year on-site hardware warranty with optional upgrade to 24×7 support, plus software maintenance and subscription packages.
Deployment involves racking the two compute nodes, connecting DC power and network cables, and configuring storage pools via the OceanStor DeviceManager wizard.
