This project involved the complete design and implementation of a high-performance storage and backup solution using Dell Unity 380F, Dell PowerVault ME5024, and Brocade Connectrix DS6610B SAN switches. The solution included RAID configuration, storage pool and LUN creation, SAN zoning, and host volume mapping to ensure maximum efficiency and fault tolerance.

Veeam Backup & Replication was deployed with Direct SAN Access to achieve high-speed, host-offloaded data transfers between Unity and PowerVault systems over Fibre Channel. Tailored backup and retention policies were developed for virtual machines, file-level, and application-aware workloads, ensuring both performance and long-term data protection.
