  3. Onboard Administrator iLO 2 Insight Control Management Software Insight Control Management A Superior Out-of-Box Experience • Easy to evaluate and deploy • Faster time to operation • Simplified c-Class enclosure setup • Integrated / shared power and cooling • No external connectivity requirements • No additional tools or devices needed • Intelligent management infrastructure • Self-discovery and configure enclosure components • Guided diagnostics and problem resolution • Local and remote access • New integrated management software • Infrastructure management environment rapidly installed, configured and ready-to-use

  4. Local Remote HP Onboard Administrator Simplified enclosure management out-of-the-box • Simple setup and configuration typical: less than 5 minutes • Diagnostics for rapid troubleshooting • Automated power and cooling management • Integrated local and remote management • Role based security for servers, network, and storage administrators • Integrates with Insight Control management software

  8. HP Enterprise Virtual Array 4400 • Based on proven EVA virtualization (since 2001) • First representative of a new EVA generation • Successor of the EVA4100 • Much higher density • EVA4400 controllers + 60 disks take 12U • EVA4100 controllers + 56 disks take 16U • High availability with hot plug drives, power supplies, fans, and industry failover software • 99.999% planned uptime • Data tiering with your choice of high performance FC drives or high capacity/lower cost FATA drives • Same robust and compatible local and remote replication capabilities as the known EVA product family: Business Copy and Continuous Access EVA

  9. HP Enterprise Virtual Array 4400 • New controller HSV300 • 4 GB Cache (2 GB per controller) • 4 FC front end ports (2 per controller) • 4 FC back end port (2 per controller) • New disk enclosures M6412 • 1 - 8 enclosures; up to 96 disks per EVA4000 • 4 Gbit/s end-to-end • More performance • EVA6100 like values • EVA software and features • EVA virtualization • Business Copy • Continuous Access • Replication Solution Manager • Command View 8.x (supports for all EVA generations)

  10. Ease of use Intuitive web-interface Unifies storage into a common pool shared RAID levels shared spare capacity Simple Vdisk (LUN) creation and presentation Straight forward local and remote-copy setup Operational efficiency TCO Significantly increase utilization and reduce stranded capacity (LUN Growth and Shrink, DCM) Different RAID levels in same disk group Less investment, maintenance cost and power consumption Availability * Enterprise-class availability (99.999%) Reconfiguration without downtime HP ISEE remote alerting and support Improve performance - service more customers Dynamic pool and Vdisk (LUN) expansion and downsizing Wide striping across all disks in group eliminates I/O hot spots provides optimal Vdisk performance Automatic load leveling Automatic re-leveling and re-striping when number of disks in a group changes The value of the EVA virtualization The EVA is designed to automatically adapt to changing workloads, provide ease of use and very high availability. * Also see the EVA availability whitepaper: http://h71028.www7.hp.com/ERC/downloads/4AA1-4202ENW.pdf?jumpid=reg_R1002_USEN

  11. HP Command View EVA Powerfully but simple Management

File system is shrunk E:\ E:\ 3. LUN on EVA is shrunk accordingly returning free space to Disk Group GB  0 100 200 300 400 500 600 700 800

  23. DCM demo • Not included in this presentation • Ask OptiCom for separate demo session

  24. Business Copy EVA Point-in-time copy capability for the EVA (local copy) • 4 options available: • Demand allocated vSnapShot • Fully allocated vSnapShot • vSnapClone • Mirror Clone • Controlled from Command View, RSM or SSSU. • Ideally suited to create point-in-time copies to: • Keep applications online while backing up data • Test applications against real data before deploying • Restore a volume after a corruption • Mine data to improve business processes or customer marketing
