4 Technical white paper Page 3 Introduction This document provides information about the HPE StoreVirtual 3200 Storage and HP ProLiant DL360 Gen9 Server solution for Microsoft Exchange Server 2016, based on the Microsoft Exchange Solution Reviewed Program (ESRP) Storage program. The ESRP Storage program was developed by Microsoft Corporation as a Microsoft Exchange Server program to facilitate third-party storage testing and solution publishing for Exchange Server. For more information about the Microsoft ESRP Storage program, go to Tested with ESRP Storage Version 4.0 Test Date: March 2017 Disclaimer HPE produced this document independently of Microsoft Corporation. Microsoft Corporation expressly disclaims responsibility for, and makes no warranty, expressed or implied, with respect to the accuracy of the contents of this document. Solution overview This solution implements the Database Availability Group (DAG) mailbox resiliency feature found in Microsoft Exchange Server This feature is the base component of the high availability and site resilience framework built into Exchange. A DAG is a group of up to 16 mailbox servers that hosts a set of databases and provides database-level recovery from failures that affect individual servers or databases. This document describes a tested configuration for deploying Microsoft Exchange Server 2016 (Exchange) in a 1000-user, mailbox-resilient environment. The performance results and best practices outlined in this document provide tested guidelines for configuring Exchange with HPE StoreVirtual 3200 Storage (HPE SV3200), HPE ProLiant DL380 Generation9 (Gen9) Server, and HPE Smart Array P441 Controller in a Storage Area Network (SAN) solution. This solution used a single DAG to support 1000 mailboxes, each with a 5 GB mailbox capacity and a work profile of 200 messages sent and received for each user, each day. To provide mailbox resiliency, there are four copies of each database in an Active/Active environment; two copies located at the primary site and two copies located at the secondary site. Microsoft s preferred architecture for Exchange Server 2016 is an Active/Active site deployment with active and passive databases equally distributed across the primary and secondary data centers. In this four-copy configuration, the recommendation is that the primary data center and secondary data center balance the user access equally across sites during normal operations. All four servers in the DAG host active databases supporting 1000 users across both sites. We tested the worst-case scenario with one server running all active databases with BitLocker enabled, using Microsoft s Resilient File System (ReFS). The performance results outlined in this paper are from the testing of a single building block at the secondary site. See Test results summary for more information. HPE Sizer for Microsoft Exchange Server 2016 HPE has developed the HPE Sizer for Microsoft Exchange Server 2016 to assist customers with proper server and storage sizing for their Exchange Server 2016 deployments. The algorithms developed and implemented in this tool originate from extensive testing of Exchange Server 2016 server roles and technologies, HPE s familiarity with Microsoft Exchange Server 2016, and our in-depth knowledge of server CPU, memory, and I/O subsystems. Designed to simplify configuration across a broad range of deployments, this tool is free to download and use. For more information, go to HPE Sizer for Microsoft Exchange Server 2016 ( In addition to the HPE Sizer, HPE recommends that customers use the Microsoft Exchange Mailbox Server Role Requirements Calculator. If this calculator is used as a starting point, it can be imported or read into the HP Sizer using the Load Exchange calculator button.

5 Technical white paper Page 4 Solution components This section describes the components of the HPE StoreVirtual Storage solution for 1000 mailbox resiliency with Exchange Server HPE StoreVirtual 3200 Storage HPE StoreVirtual 3200 Storage (HPE SV3200), shown in Figure 1, is a dual-controller hardware platform focused on low cost and ease of deployment for the small and midsize market. The HPE SV3200 provides high availability (HA) storage in a single enclosure and is an ideal entry-level storage platform for Exchange 2016 messaging solutions. The storage system (storage array) starts with a 2U array enclosure with dual storage controllers with either 25 SFF drive bays or 12 LFF drive bays. The storage system can scale up by adding drives and supports up to three external disk enclosures, increasing the maximum storage capacity to 288 TB when using LFF 6 TB disk drives. Each storage controller supports host connectivity with either two 1GbE ports, four 1GbE ports, two 10GbE ports, two 8 Gb Fibre Channel ports, or two 16 Gb Fibre Channel ports. The HPE SV3200 ships with HPE LeftHand OS 13 Key features 2U dual controller system highly available in the minimal configuration capable of surviving a single controller fault. Ability to select Network RAID 0 or RAID 10 to meet a variety of application needs. SFF and LFF enclosures with flexible drive configurations (SAS HDDs, MDL-SAS HDDs, SAS SSDs). Variety of host connectivity options: 4P/16 Gb FC, 4P/8 Gb FC, 4P/10GbE (SFP+), 8P/1GbE, 4P/1GbE. Redundant, hot-pluggable, and hot-swappable components (storage controller, disks, power supplies, fan modules). Scale up add drives to an existing array enclosure or add up to three drive enclosures to an array enclosure. 12 Gb SAS (array enclosure, disk enclosure, drives). Simple storage management through a web-based user interface. Note These key features of the StoreVirtual 3200 are not recommended for most Microsoft Exchange 2016 deployments: Adaptive Optimization features using two tiers of storage Thin provisioning Figure 1. HPE StoreVirtual 3200 Storage HPE StoreVirtual 3200 Management Console Unlike previous HPE StoreVirtual VSA and HPE ProLiant-based StoreVirtual solutions that used the Centralized Management Console (CMC), HPE StoreVirtual 3200 storage uses the HPE StoreVirtual 3200 Management Console (SVMC), as shown in Figure 2. The SVMC is a built-in, web-based interface that is run from the storage controllers in the management group and manages all the storage systems in that management group. The SVMC interface offers a look and feel similar to the HPE 3PAR StoreServ Management Console (SSMC) and HPE OneView, eliminating infrastructure complexity with automation simplicity.

8 Technical white paper Page 7 Solution description As described in Solution components on page 4, this solution is designed with two HPE SV3200 Storage systems for a 1,000 user Exchange 2016 deployment, and with high availability through Exchange 2016 DAG copies, using four active servers in the solution. Mailbox resiliency data protection is provided by configuring multiple database copies on a minimum of two HPE SV3200 Storage systems. Only one HPE SV3200 Storage system was included in the testing described in this document. This document provides best practices to help administrators implement an Exchange deployment with the environment below. Targeted customer profile A single Database Availability Group (DAG) deployment with two mailbox servers in the primary site and two mailbox servers in the secondary site, for a total of four mailbox servers across the entire solution. 1,000 mailbox users (250 user mailboxes per server). Exchange 2016 profile of 0.16 IOPS workload per user (200 messages sent and received per user, per day). 5 GB mailbox size. Four copies of each mailbox database (one active and three passive). Twelve databases per server (six active and six passive). Background Database Maintenance (BDM) enabled in testing. Designed for server and site resiliency. 24 6TB 12G SAS 7.2K Large Form Factor (LFF) (3.5-inch) Dual Port MDL hard drives per array for the Exchange databases and transaction logs. Storage configuration This solution uses the HPE SV3200 in the building block and contains one LFF storage system and three LFF disk enclosures. The storage system and disk enclosures each contain (12) 6 TB LFF disk drives for a total of (48) disk drives or 288 TB of raw storage capacity before RAID. The cache memory of SV3200 is 1 GB. The cache algorithm uses internal tuning, but it is not user configurable. The Exchange databases, logs, and restore volumes reside on the disk drives. The drive enclosures are connected to the array enclosure using an asymmetric cabling scheme. The cabling scheme is shown in Figure 5. The HPE StoreVirtual 3200 Storage cabling view maintains the high availability of the disk enclosures and is the only supported cabling scheme.

This solution demonstrates the worst-case scenario with one host in the SDC hosting 22 active databases, with the following requirements: 1,000 mailbox users IOPS workload per user (200 messages sent and received per user, per day, with an additional 20% headroom). 5 GB mailbox size. Primary site s database copies and one of the two servers at the secondary site are unavailable due to a planned or unplanned event. The mailbox server in the secondary site hosts 12 database copies all active. Background Database Maintenance (BDM) enabled.

This means that 1GB equals 1,000,000,000 bytes, not 1,073,741,824 bytes. Best practices When deploying Exchange, it is important to not only size for storage capacity but to also consider the storage performance demands. Validating that the storage subsystem is capable of supporting the anticipated and future workload minimizes the risk of the disk subsystem becoming an I/O bottleneck. Exchange Server is a disk-intensive application. For Exchange 2016 best practices on storage design from Microsoft, go to Based on the testing run using the ESRP framework, we recommend the following to improve storage performance: Drivers and firmware Ensure that firmware and drivers for all hardware in the solution are up-to-date. For more information, go to Physical Drive Write Cache Unlike controller-level cache, individual drive write caches are not protected. If the server loses power, or a hot plug drive is physically removed from the array during operations, unwritten data in the physical drives write caches will be lost. HPE recommends disabling Physical Drive Write Cache on the HPE Smart Array P441 Controller. For more information, go to Accelerator Ratio and Flash-Backed Write Cache (FBWC) HPE recommends setting 75 percent write cache and 25 percent read cache (battery-backed cache).

14 Technical white paper Page 13 Jetstress Before installing Exchange Server 2016, test your storage solution with Jetstress to ensure it is configured properly and meets your requirements. To download Jetstress, go to Mailbox database copies HPE recommends 4 database copies, 2 in each datacenter. Stripe size For Exchange deployments, HPE recommends using a strip size of 256 KB or larger for your selected RAID level. The strip size was configured for 256 KB for this solution testing. For more information, go to RAID level Database volumes used in this solution were configured as follows: Hardware RAID - RAID 10 (databases and logs volumes), Network RAID - RAID 10. BitLocker Drive Encryption BitLocker Drive Encryption provides considerable protection for data volumes. For more information about Windows BitLocker, go to Windows Volumes For best performance, format the Windows volumes with 64 KB allocation unit size with ReFS file system. Test results summary This section provides a high-level summary of the test data from the ESRP and a reference to the detailed HTML reports, generated by the ESRP testing framework. For solutions that use a uniform building block style, in which each building block is independent and isolated, ESRP requires testing only one building block. For this solution, a building block consisted of one HP ProLiant DL360 Gen9 Server and one HP D3600 Disk Enclosure, with 11 x 6 TB LFF SAS drives hosting all 4,000 mailboxes. Reliability Reliability testing exercises the storage with the maximum sustainable Exchange I/O load for 24 hours. The goal is to verify that the storage can handle the maximum I/O load for an extended period of time. Both log and database files are analyzed for integrity after the stress test to confirm that no database or log corruption occurred. After running the 24-hour test, we found no errors reported in the event log for the storage reliability testing and no errors reported for the checksum process. Storage performance results Storage performance testing exercises the storage with the maximum sustainable Exchange I/O load for two hours. The test measures storage I/O response times under the maximum sustainable Exchange I/O load. The following data is the sum of all logical disk I/Os and an average of all logical disk I/O latency in the two-hour test duration. This solution design is an Exchange deployment with a single DAG. The DAG has two mailbox servers in the primary site and two mailbox servers in the disaster recovery site. Ideally, the two servers in the disaster recovery site should host all active mailboxes when the primary site is offline (planned or unplanned.) Table 4 shows the worst-case scenario when one server is running all four databases. Table 4. Performance results Database I/O Necessary Disk Transfers/sec* 160 Database Disk Transfers/sec 377

Database backup and recovery performance This section contains two test reports. The first report measures the sequential read rate of the database files; the second report measures the recovery/replay performance (playing transaction logs into the database). The tests measure the read rates and log replay rates with all mailboxes under concurrent or simultaneous load. Database read-only performance This test measures the maximum backup rate for Volume Shadow Copy Service (VSS) aware backup applications. The following table shows the average and the sum of the database reads. Table 5.

16 Technical white paper Page 15 Summary The information in this technical white paper highlights the tested performance results and configuration best practices for an Exchange solution supporting 1,000 5 GB mailboxes and a 0.16 IOPS workload for each user (200 messages sent and received per user). The tested solution included an HPE SV3200 Storage with 24 6TB 7.2K LFF SAS drives for the mailbox database storage and transaction logs and 12 database volumes encrypted using BitLocker Drive Encryption. The test results demonstrated in this document are summarized below. Test results The HPE SV3200 Storage subsystem was capable of an aggregate 377 disk transfers per second, contains the necessary capacity to support 1,000 Exchange users with 5 GB mailboxes, and provides additional performance headroom. The test results and data presented in this document are from the ESRP test framework. Test results are only a guide; administrators should test their solution to make sure it meets requirements for their specific environment. Note The ESRP program is not a benchmarking program. The tests do not measure the maximum throughput for a given solution. Rather, program focus is on producing recommendations from vendors for Exchange Server storage solutions. Data presented in this document should not be used for direct comparisons among solutions. Appendix A: Stress testing Microsoft Exchange Jetstress 2013 Table 7.
