Quick and easy license calculations

for your Open-E JovianDSS storage setup

With the new Open-E JovianDSS License Calculator you can select the calculation mode, either by demanded usable storage capacity or by the amount of data groups and disks in a data group. The calculator will display the following information:

• Gross and net unformatted storage capacity
• Formatted capacity factor and Pool max used capacity factor
• Usable data storage capacity
• Number of required disks
• Required and recommended license capacity

You will also see a simulation of the Zpool data groups as well as the Pool capacity efficiency. However, keep in mind that the calculations made by this tool do not include the number of disks required for additional groups: read cache, write log and spare disks.

Note: Results are for single pools only! The required total license capacity is estimated for data groups in a single pool only. If you want to estimate the license capacity for more than one pool, please calculate each pool separately or multiply the results by the desired number of pools (pools must have the same size).
