HP StorageWorks 4100/6100/8100 Enterprise Virtual Arrays Family data sheet EVA4100 EVA6100 EVA8100
The HP StorageWorks 4100/6100/8100 Enterprise Virtual Arrays (EVAs) continue to offer customers in the mid-range to enterprise marketplace leading high performance, high capacity and high availability "virtual" array storage solutions. Not only do these solutions reduce IT costs and complexity, they save time, space and costs as compared to traditionally architected storage. And EVAs are supported by a powerfully simple suite of management software, making it easy for users to achieve higher levels of productivity. For visualizing the big storage area network (SAN) picture and reducing SAN complexity, HP Storage Essentials Standard Edition SRM software simplifies managing EVAs with SAN infrastructures and is highly recommended. Designed for the data center where there is a critical need for improved storage utilization and scalability, the EVAs meet application-specific demands for consistent high transaction I/O for the customer, and provide easy capacity expansion, instantaneous replication and simplified storage administration. With affordable, easy-to-deploy EVA4100 Starter Kits for small SAN use, XCS v6.110 software, 4Gb Host Bus Adapters and switches support, the EVA4100, 6100 and 8100 provide a comprehensive solution designed to simplify storage management and maximize performance. HP also brings integrated iscsi connectivity to the EVA and Remote Replication, SAN over WAN with EVA Continuous Access EVAs. Using the EVA Command View software to manage the iscsi connectivity to the array offers a powerful solution that provide iscsi connectivity to an EVA utilizing the EVA s existing FC infrastructure. And now EVA File Services provide easy, cost effective storage consolidation with block and file support for EVA customers. The EVA4100/6100/8100 combined with HP StorageWorks Command View EVA aggregates and automates management tasks to easily provision storage when capacity changes with just a few clicks. The EVA provides industry-leading automatic LUN growth and shrink with Dynamic Capacity Manager. Features and benefits 1. Simple a) EVA4100/6100/8100 with EVA business continuity software aggregates and automates management tasks allowing you to easily provision storage when capacity changes with fewer clicks. b) EVAs provide lower total cost of ownership through savings in IT support and less unplanned downtime for more affordable data center management. See ROI Case Study on EOHSI http://h71028.www7.hp.com/erc/downloads/ 4AA0-5762ENA.pdf. c) Powerful HP management solutions, such as Storage Essentials and ProLiant Essentials, easily integrate with Command View EVA and Replication Solution Manager to provide a total management framework. d) HP Storage Essentials SRM software reduces SAN complexity, providing your IT staff with an automated big picture SRM software solution to affordably manage EVA and infrastructure in small to medium HP storage-based SANs. HP StorageWorks delivers easy-to-install, easy-tomanage and easy-to-support proven server/storage/service solutions that help customers lower their TCO and minimize the complexity of their storage environment. 2
EVA4100 San Starter Kit 2. Reliable and available a) HP data shows that most customers are achieving 99.999% availability with the EVA4x00, 6x00 and 8x00 family. Following the HP EVA Availability Best Practices can help customers achieve this result: http://h71028.www7.hp.com/erc/downloads/ 4AA0-2787ENW.pdf?jumpid=reg_R1002_USEN. b) Comprehensive protection against system downtime from fault, failure or site disaster with HP Disaster Tolerant Solutions: HP Metrocluster, HP Continentalclusters and HP StorageWorks EVA Cluster Extension. These solutions automate site failover and failback for sustained operations during a crisis without human intervention. c) Minimize planned downtime with online firmware upgrades and automated disk drive firmware upgrades. d) EVAs fully switched architecture and multiple redundant paths from the controllers to the disk drives provide better data availability compared to traditional arbitrated loop connectivity. e) HP Instant Support Enterprise Edition Remote Data Collection captures information about your EVA configuration and proactively identifies problems to prevent reactive service requests or system downtime. 3. Faster for real world applications a) New controllers with 50 to 70% improvement in cache throughput and up to 24% improved performance (varies by controller type), with no increase in price. b) Enhanced performance especially benefits smallblock workload, transaction-oriented applications such as Exchange and banking and other financial services. 4. Green It s easy being green with EVAs a) The EVA s use of Vsnaps eliminates wasted capacity in local replication situations like backup. b) EVA components are designed to be environmentally friendly and to meet and exceed worldwide standards like WEEE and RoHS. c) EVAs integration with the new HP Dynamic Smart Cooling energy management system. This system actively manages the environment to deliver cooling where it is needed most, enabling essential cost savings to end users. 3
