Product Highlights

Autonomic Configuration: With the HP 3PAR ® Management Console, even multi-site DR can be set

 

up and tested in just minutes, and from a single window. Built-in, autonomic configuration

 

capabilities unique to 3PAR Remote Copy enable DR to automatically and intelligently configure

 

itself. With just a few clicks, you can set up and test remote replication with HP 3PAR StoreServ, or a

 

combination of arrays at multiple sites.

 

Multi-Protocol Support: With Native IP as well as Fibre Channel (FC) support, 3PAR Remote Copy

 

delivers out-of-the-box connectivity over your IP network, enabling you to replicate data more

 

cost-effectively by leveraging your existing infrastructure. Achieve robust DR without the expensive

 

converters and management of a separate, special-purpose infrastructure.

 

Host-Independent Replication: HP 3PAR Remote Copy is a host-independent, array-based data

 

mirroring solution that boosts performance by offloading host servers of replication tasks. HP 3PAR

 

Virtual Volumes (VVs) are mirrored from one HP 3PAR array to another over variable distances using

 

the mode of operation that best fits your needs.

 

Flexible, Modular Architecture: HP 3PAR Remote Copy is supported on all StoreServ arrays (both

 

high-end and mid-range), all of which are scalable to meet your precise requirements. This

 

flexibility gives you the ability to implement right-sized systems that meet the unique needs of

 

each location. No more purchasing and managing high-end arrays even in DR configurations where

 

smaller mid-range arrays could suffice. HP 3PAR Remote Copy also allows you to configure remote

 

mirrors with different RAID properties from their source volumes so you can more precisely tailor

 

protection levels and cost.

 

Balanced Performance: HP 3PAR Remote Copy's line-trunking capability simplifies data

 

transmission by making the most efficient use of all configured network links. Data transfers are

 

autonomically balanced across all links, thus avoiding bottlenecks. Line-trunking also increases

 

availability by automatically rebalancing the load in case of a link failure.

 

Long Distance Replication with Zero Data Loss: HP 3PAR Remote Copy offers a unique

 

Synchronous Long Distance mode that allows you to meet low RTOs and zero-data loss RPOs with

 

complete distance flexibility while saving on hardware

 

Thin Provisioning Awareness: HP 3PAR Remote Copy is "thin provisioning-aware", so target

 

volumes provide the same cost and ease-of-use benefits as thin source volumes. With the

 

combination of HP 3PAR Thin Provisioning and HP 3PAR Remote Copy, both primary and remote

 

sites can share in the benefits of allocating volumes just once while consuming only necessary

 

physical capacity. The result is unprecedented efficiency in data replication.

 

 

HP 3PAR Peer Persistence

Overview

HP 3PAR Peer Persistence software allows companies to federate their 3PAR StoreServ Storage systems

 

across geographically separated data centers. This inter-site federation of storage allows customers to

 

use their data centers more effectively by allowing them to move applications from one site to another as

 

per their business need, and more importantly, without any application downtime.
