HP StorageWorks P2000 G3 Modular Smart Array Systems

When a DR site is initially created a normalization or initial copy of the data from the source volume to the target volume must occur. The P2000 G3 array allows this first copy to take place locally. After completion the disks can me manually moved to the remote location. Subsequent changes will only remotely copy the changed blocks.

SAN Extensions

HP P2000 G3 Array provides the capability to replicate data over direct Fibre Channel. The distances supported over dark fiber are determined by the speed of the dark fiber connection and the technology used to communicate over the dark fiber.

HP StorageWorks Natural and man-made disasters can occur when you least expect it - serving as a reminder that

Storage Mirroring in less than a moment's notice, volumes of data loss can occur. To prevent data loss from failure, error, or disaster, HP StorageWorks Storage Mirroring Software provides replication and recovery of valuable Windows and Linux data to another server. Proactive replication is a key strategy coupled with tape backup and snapshot technology for up-to-the-second data protection. Having replicated data co-located enables customers to recover their static and transactional data in seconds to minutes.

Patented replication and failover technology continuously captures byte-level data changes as they occur in your production environment and replicates those changes to one or more servers in any location without geographic limitations. By replicating only the bytes that change, Storage Mirroring Software uses the absolute minimum bandwidth required to replicate customer data. The software does not require special hardware to run and utilizes existing LAN or WAN infrastructure -saving time, additional investment, and maintenance. Storage Mirroring software is storage independent and will support any DAS, NAS, and SAN storage device. Additional flexibility is achieved with Windows and Linux operating system support. Storage Mirroring works on Windows Server 2003, Windows Server 2008, Windows Storage Server, 64-bit Windows, Windows on Itanium and Red Hat Linux. The platform flexibility, resource optimization, and application-specific protection enable customers to solidify their data and disaster protection strategies.

Storage Mirroring will now be offered in 3 different product SKU families

Stock LTU (channel stocked license(s))

E-LTU (electronic delivery - order any number of licenses - 10 or higher)

LTU (paper delivery which replaces all previous 10 pack licenses -an alternative to electronic delivery)

Paper Delivery LTU

Order E-LTU when you require 10 or more licenses and you desire electronic delivery of those 10+ licenses. E-LTUs replace the previous 10 packs. Previously, an odd number of licenses over 10 require 10 packs and multiple singles, now E-LTUs will deliver the exact number of licenses electronically. Add corresponding Storage Mirroring Care Packs for support.
