HP 3PAR Thin Provisioning SoftwareHP 3PAR Thin Provisioning Software can make any organization more agile and efficient by reducing upfront capacity reservations and allowing disk capacity to be purchased only as needed

Do you have storage pools that arenrsquot really efficient HP 3PAR Thin Provisioning Software solves the problem of inefficient capacity utilization by breaking the traditional linkage between allocated and purchased capacity Demand for thin provisioning solutions combined with increased attention to data

center power consumption has put pressure on vendors to introduce thin provisioning solutions but bolt-on implementations canrsquot deliver the simplicity or the efficiency of thin provisioning

With HP 3PAR Thin Provisioning capacity is dedicated and configured autonomically just-in-time and without active management Rather than create separate pools of storage the software creates one pool from which capacity is dedicated only as data is actually written And while other thin provisioning implementations use coarse allocation units that can range from 1 MB to 17 GB HP 3PAR Thin Provisioning uses a fine-grained 16 KB allocation unit to increase system efficiency

HP 3PAR Thin Conversion Software Leverages zero-detection capabilities within the HP 3PAR Gen3 ASIC to drive the conversion of inefficient ldquofatrdquo volumes on legacy arrays to more efficient ldquothinrdquo volumes on HP 3PAR Storage Systems

HP 3PAR Thin Provisioning SoftwareHP 3PAR Thin Provisioning Software can make any organization more agile and efficient by reducing upfront capacity reservations and allowing disk capacity to be purchased only as needed

Do you have storage pools that arenrsquot really efficient HP 3PAR Thin Provisioning Software solves the problem of inefficient capacity utilization by breaking the traditional linkage between allocated and purchased capacity Demand for thin provisioning solutions combined with increased attention to data

center power consumption has put pressure on vendors to introduce thin provisioning solutions but bolt-on implementations canrsquot deliver the simplicity or the efficiency of thin provisioning

With HP 3PAR Thin Provisioning capacity is dedicated and configured autonomically just-in-time and without active management Rather than create separate pools of storage the software creates one pool from which capacity is dedicated only as data is actually written And while other thin provisioning implementations use coarse allocation units that can range from 1 MB to 17 GB HP 3PAR Thin Provisioning uses a fine-grained 16 KB allocation unit to increase system efficiency

HP 3PAR Thin Conversion Software Leverages zero-detection capabilities within the HP 3PAR Gen3 ASIC to drive the conversion of inefficient ldquofatrdquo volumes on legacy arrays to more efficient ldquothinrdquo volumes on HP 3PAR Storage Systems

HP 3PAR Thin Provisioning SoftwareHP 3PAR Thin Provisioning Software can make any organization more agile and efficient by reducing upfront capacity reservations and allowing disk capacity to be purchased only as needed

Do you have storage pools that arenrsquot really efficient HP 3PAR Thin Provisioning Software solves the problem of inefficient capacity utilization by breaking the traditional linkage between allocated and purchased capacity Demand for thin provisioning solutions combined with increased attention to data

center power consumption has put pressure on vendors to introduce thin provisioning solutions but bolt-on implementations canrsquot deliver the simplicity or the efficiency of thin provisioning

With HP 3PAR Thin Provisioning capacity is dedicated and configured autonomically just-in-time and without active management Rather than create separate pools of storage the software creates one pool from which capacity is dedicated only as data is actually written And while other thin provisioning implementations use coarse allocation units that can range from 1 MB to 17 GB HP 3PAR Thin Provisioning uses a fine-grained 16 KB allocation unit to increase system efficiency

HP 3PAR Thin Conversion Software Leverages zero-detection capabilities within the HP 3PAR Gen3 ASIC to drive the conversion of inefficient ldquofatrdquo volumes on legacy arrays to more efficient ldquothinrdquo volumes on HP 3PAR Storage Systems

HP P9000 for Compatible Extended Remote Copy (XRC) SoftwareProvides disaster protection for data stored on the HP P9500 Disk Array subsystem by providing IBM mainframe compatible asynchronous remote replication

HP P9000 for Compatible Extended Remote Copy Software provides disaster protection and data migration capability for data stored on an HP P9500 Disk Array by implementing IBM mainframe compatible asynchronous remote replication P9000 XRC provides the same functionality as IBM Extended Remote Copy (now called IBM TotalStorage zOS Global Mirror) and is compatible with System Data Mover (SDM) mainframe software When data is written to the local HP P9500 Disk Array XRC temporarily stores a timestamped copy of it in a side file SDM in one of the mainframe hosts asynchronously reads the side file data from the local P9500 Disk Array and then writes the data to the remote disk array

XRC can be combined with other P9500 Disk Array replication products for additional availability When combined with P9000 Continuous Access Synchronous for Mainframe XRC supports three Data Center disaster recovery solutions

HP P9000 for Compatible FlashCopy Mirroring SoftwareEnhances data availability and productivity by providing IBM mainframe compatible point-in-time local copies for data stored on an HP P9500 Disk Array

HP P9000 for FlashCopy Mirroring Software enhances data availability for mainframe data and improves productivity by providing IBM FlashCopy compatible point-in-time copies within an HP P9500 Disk Array As soon as a copy is created it becomes available for use The copy can be either virtual or

physical If a virtual copy is specified it remains a pointer-based copy that only saves the changes from the original However if a physical copy is specified a full copy will be completed in the background while both the source and the copy remain available for access

For additional availability FlashCopy can be combined with Business Copy for Mainframe Continuous Access Synchronous for Mainframe Continuous Access Journal for Mainframe and HP P9000 for Compatible Extended Remote Copy

HP P9000 for Compatible Parallel Access Volumes SoftwareImproves operational efficiency by providing substantially faster access to mainframe data stored on the HP P9500 Disk Array subsystem

HP P9000 for Compatible Parallel Access Volumes and HP P9000 for Compatible Hyper PAV Software enable high-performance concurrent access of mainframe volumes by permitting a mainframe host system to issue multiple IO requests in parallel to individual logical devices within the HP P9500 Disk Array Without PAV mainframe systems can initiate only one IO request per device at a time and must wait for the IO to complete before starting another IO request to the same device By utilizing alias addresses that all point to the same device as the base address PAV enables the host system to start several IO requests simultaneously to the same device thus greatly improving performance

The P9500 Disk Array supports static PAV dynamic PAV and Hyper PAV With static PAV the number of aliases assigned to each base device does not change With dynamic PAV high-workload base devices can borrow idle PAV aliases from other base devices increasing their IO capability

Additional HP 3PAR Software

HP 3PAR Thin Provisioning SoftwareHP 3PAR Thin Provisioning Software can make any organization more agile and efficient by reducing upfront capacity reservations and allowing disk capacity to be purchased only as needed

Do you have storage pools that arenrsquot really efficient HP 3PAR Thin Provisioning Software solves the problem of inefficient capacity utilization by breaking the traditional linkage between allocated and purchased capacity Demand for thin provisioning solutions combined with increased attention to data

center power consumption has put pressure on vendors to introduce thin provisioning solutions but bolt-on implementations canrsquot deliver the simplicity or the efficiency of thin provisioning

With HP 3PAR Thin Provisioning capacity is dedicated and configured autonomically just-in-time and without active management Rather than create separate pools of storage the software creates one pool from which capacity is dedicated only as data is actually written And while other thin provisioning implementations use coarse allocation units that can range from 1 MB to 17 GB HP 3PAR Thin Provisioning uses a fine-grained 16 KB allocation unit to increase system efficiency

HP 3PAR Thin Conversion Software Leverages zero-detection capabilities within the HP 3PAR Gen3 ASIC to drive the conversion of inefficient ldquofatrdquo volumes on legacy arrays to more efficient ldquothinrdquo volumes on HP 3PAR Storage Systems

What can I do to improve the capacity efficiency of my legacy storage volumes without complex data migration or professional services HP 3PAR Thin Conversion Software leverages the zero-detection capabilities within the HP 3PAR Gen3 ASIC to drive the conversion of inefficient ldquofatrdquo volumes on legacy arrays to more efficient higher utilization ldquothinrdquo volumes on HP 3PAR Storage Systems This ldquothinningrdquo of volumes enables data centers to meet ldquogreen ITrdquo targets reduce wasted space and increase utilization rates Because the fat-to-thin conversion mechanism is built into array hardware volume conversions take place inline at wire speeds while preserving service levels and without disruption to production workloads

With Thin Conversion a technology refresh no longer requires a terabyte-for-terabyte replacement but instead offers the opportunity to reduce capacity requirements by 50 percent or more without the need to invest in professional services

23

HP 3PAR Thin Persistence SoftwareMeans that thin volumes on the HP 3PAR Storage System stay as lean and efficient as possible by leveraging the HP 3PAR Gen3 ASIC to non-disruptively reclaim unused space associated with deleted data

What good are thin provisioning savings if they canrsquot be preserved over time HP 3PAR Thin Persistence Software means that thin volumes on the HP 3PAR Storage System stay as lean and efficient as possible by leveraging the HP 3PAR Gen3 ASIC to reclaim unused space associated with deleted datamdashsimply quickly and non-disruptively Writing and deleting large amounts of data can leave unused space within thin volumes Even lots of small writes and deletions can eventually reduce the efficiency of thin volumes This logical deletion of data without actually freeing up unused space creates a hidden utilization penalty that can really add up over time

HP 3PAR Thin Persistence Software reclaims this unused space to increase capacity efficiency keep costs down and help defer the purchase of additional capacity to handle new data growth Thin Persistence also helps enterprises maintain sustainability targets by keeping down data center power and cooling needs

HP 3PAR Virtual Copy SoftwareEnables HP 3PAR Storage System users to flexibly and affordably protect and share data from any application without sacrificing performance availability or versatility

Need to create snapshots for data backup application recovery business intelligence and to expedite development and testing HP 3PAR Virtual Copy Software flexibly delivers instant point-in-time (PIT) copies of your data so you can share and protect data from any application simply and affordably Use Virtual Copy to stay ahead of the innovation curvemdashfor example by enabling rapid application recoverymdashwhile containing costs with a ldquothin-awarerdquo implementation that reduces the amount of physical capacity that is actually being consumed by your datamdashand without sacrificing performance availability or versatility

Most traditional copy solutions lack flexibility and require too great an investment in online capacity to be considered economical Virtual Copy Software is a reservationless non-duplicative copy-on-write product that consumes capacity only for changed data in fine-grained increments and without ever duplicating changed data within a snapshot tree

HP 3PAR Remote Copy Software Provides enterprise and cloud data centers autonomic disaster recovery and replication technology to protect and share data from any applicationmdashsimply efficiently and affordably

HP P6000 family software

HP P6000 Command View SoftwareProvides HP P6000 EVA disk arrays with a comprehensive software suite that includes everything needed to manage an EVA while reducing IT costs and management complexity

Want to reduce IT costs and management complexity for your storage arrays and SANs Need to be ready for the next set of changes The HP P6000 Command View Software provides you with a powerfully simple storage management experience that automates and aggregates storage management to reduce complexity while increasing productivity Quickly and easily automate tasks such as configuring RAID groups

Provisioning capacity is simple and you can dynamically expand LUNs and add drives online without downtime You can easily create Vdisks and grow or shrink LUNs all without downtime HP P6000 Command View Software allows you to replicate data with snapshots for immediate use With the new thin provisioning you can provision storage for higher capacity utilization at reduced costs You can change the characteristics of an existing LUN using Dynamic LUNRAID migration to quickly meet changing business needs And you can be secure about your data with the industry-leading security features

HP P6000 SmartStart Software is a configuration utility that simplifies installation for the HP P6000 EVA family Installing both HP P6000 Command View Software and Command View EVAPerf Software it assists with the initial provisioning of new storage

HP P6000 Thin Provisioning SoftwareHP P6000 Thin Provisioning Software provides the ability to create a Vdisk such that the application sees more capacity available than is physically allocated by the array This provides an ideal solution to combat the challenges of storage sizing and management P6000 EVA thin provisioned Vdisks once defined automatically grow over time and only allocate additional physical disk space when there is a requirement for more storage As Vdisks get provisioned based on requirements Vdisk utilization rates are exceptionally high The combined efficiency of a high utilization rate and on-demand provisioning means that disk drive purchases can be deferred reducing CAPEX Also the OPEX associated with power and cooling and floor space requirements can be reduced

The P6000 EVA continues to provide high performance through wide striping of data across the physical disks in a disk group Together thin provisioning and wide striping deliver an easy to manage cost effective and high performance solution

physical If a virtual copy is specified it remains a pointer-based copy that only saves the changes from the original However if a physical copy is specified a full copy will be completed in the background while both the source and the copy remain available for access

For additional availability FlashCopy can be combined with Business Copy for Mainframe Continuous Access Synchronous for Mainframe Continuous Access Journal for Mainframe and HP P9000 for Compatible Extended Remote Copy

HP P9000 for Compatible Parallel Access Volumes SoftwareImproves operational efficiency by providing substantially faster access to mainframe data stored on the HP P9500 Disk Array subsystem

HP P9000 for Compatible Parallel Access Volumes and HP P9000 for Compatible Hyper PAV Software enable high-performance concurrent access of mainframe volumes by permitting a mainframe host system to issue multiple IO requests in parallel to individual logical devices within the HP P9500 Disk Array Without PAV mainframe systems can initiate only one IO request per device at a time and must wait for the IO to complete before starting another IO request to the same device By utilizing alias addresses that all point to the same device as the base address PAV enables the host system to start several IO requests simultaneously to the same device thus greatly improving performance

The P9500 Disk Array supports static PAV dynamic PAV and Hyper PAV With static PAV the number of aliases assigned to each base device does not change With dynamic PAV high-workload base devices can borrow idle PAV aliases from other base devices increasing their IO capability

HP 3PAR Thin Provisioning SoftwareHP 3PAR Thin Provisioning Software can make any organization more agile and efficient by reducing upfront capacity reservations and allowing disk capacity to be purchased only as needed

Do you have storage pools that arenrsquot really efficient HP 3PAR Thin Provisioning Software solves the problem of inefficient capacity utilization by breaking the traditional linkage between allocated and purchased capacity Demand for thin provisioning solutions combined with increased attention to data

center power consumption has put pressure on vendors to introduce thin provisioning solutions but bolt-on implementations canrsquot deliver the simplicity or the efficiency of thin provisioning

With HP 3PAR Thin Provisioning capacity is dedicated and configured autonomically just-in-time and without active management Rather than create separate pools of storage the software creates one pool from which capacity is dedicated only as data is actually written And while other thin provisioning implementations use coarse allocation units that can range from 1 MB to 17 GB HP 3PAR Thin Provisioning uses a fine-grained 16 KB allocation unit to increase system efficiency

HP 3PAR Thin Conversion Software Leverages zero-detection capabilities within the HP 3PAR Gen3 ASIC to drive the conversion of inefficient ldquofatrdquo volumes on legacy arrays to more efficient ldquothinrdquo volumes on HP 3PAR Storage Systems

HP P6000 family software

HP P6000 Command View SoftwareProvides HP P6000 EVA disk arrays with a comprehensive software suite that includes everything needed to manage an EVA while reducing IT costs and management complexity

Want to reduce IT costs and management complexity for your storage arrays and SANs Need to be ready for the next set of changes The HP P6000 Command View Software provides you with a powerfully simple storage management experience that automates and aggregates storage management to reduce complexity while increasing productivity Quickly and easily automate tasks such as configuring RAID groups

Provisioning capacity is simple and you can dynamically expand LUNs and add drives online without downtime You can easily create Vdisks and grow or shrink LUNs all without downtime HP P6000 Command View Software allows you to replicate data with snapshots for immediate use With the new thin provisioning you can provision storage for higher capacity utilization at reduced costs You can change the characteristics of an existing LUN using Dynamic LUNRAID migration to quickly meet changing business needs And you can be secure about your data with the industry-leading security features

HP P6000 SmartStart Software is a configuration utility that simplifies installation for the HP P6000 EVA family Installing both HP P6000 Command View Software and Command View EVAPerf Software it assists with the initial provisioning of new storage

HP P6000 Thin Provisioning SoftwareHP P6000 Thin Provisioning Software provides the ability to create a Vdisk such that the application sees more capacity available than is physically allocated by the array This provides an ideal solution to combat the challenges of storage sizing and management P6000 EVA thin provisioned Vdisks once defined automatically grow over time and only allocate additional physical disk space when there is a requirement for more storage As Vdisks get provisioned based on requirements Vdisk utilization rates are exceptionally high The combined efficiency of a high utilization rate and on-demand provisioning means that disk drive purchases can be deferred reducing CAPEX Also the OPEX associated with power and cooling and floor space requirements can be reduced

The P6000 EVA continues to provide high performance through wide striping of data across the physical disks in a disk group Together thin provisioning and wide striping deliver an easy to manage cost effective and high performance solution

Such just-in-time provisioning coupled with appropriate monitoring capability means that a measurable and an accessible amount of unused storage capacity is always held in reserve With Vdisks managers know what they have in use and what is being held in reserve and can plan more efficiently

Additional HP 3PAR Software

HP 3PAR Thin Provisioning SoftwareHP 3PAR Thin Provisioning Software can make any organization more agile and efficient by reducing upfront capacity reservations and allowing disk capacity to be purchased only as needed

Do you have storage pools that arenrsquot really efficient HP 3PAR Thin Provisioning Software solves the problem of inefficient capacity utilization by breaking the traditional linkage between allocated and purchased capacity Demand for thin provisioning solutions combined with increased attention to data

center power consumption has put pressure on vendors to introduce thin provisioning solutions but bolt-on implementations canrsquot deliver the simplicity or the efficiency of thin provisioning

With HP 3PAR Thin Provisioning capacity is dedicated and configured autonomically just-in-time and without active management Rather than create separate pools of storage the software creates one pool from which capacity is dedicated only as data is actually written And while other thin provisioning implementations use coarse allocation units that can range from 1 MB to 17 GB HP 3PAR Thin Provisioning uses a fine-grained 16 KB allocation unit to increase system efficiency

HP 3PAR Thin Conversion Software Leverages zero-detection capabilities within the HP 3PAR Gen3 ASIC to drive the conversion of inefficient ldquofatrdquo volumes on legacy arrays to more efficient ldquothinrdquo volumes on HP 3PAR Storage Systems

Additional HP 3PAR Software

HP 3PAR Thin Provisioning SoftwareHP 3PAR Thin Provisioning Software can make any organization more agile and efficient by reducing upfront capacity reservations and allowing disk capacity to be purchased only as needed

Do you have storage pools that arenrsquot really efficient HP 3PAR Thin Provisioning Software solves the problem of inefficient capacity utilization by breaking the traditional linkage between allocated and purchased capacity Demand for thin provisioning solutions combined with increased attention to data

center power consumption has put pressure on vendors to introduce thin provisioning solutions but bolt-on implementations canrsquot deliver the simplicity or the efficiency of thin provisioning

With HP 3PAR Thin Provisioning capacity is dedicated and configured autonomically just-in-time and without active management Rather than create separate pools of storage the software creates one pool from which capacity is dedicated only as data is actually written And while other thin provisioning implementations use coarse allocation units that can range from 1 MB to 17 GB HP 3PAR Thin Provisioning uses a fine-grained 16 KB allocation unit to increase system efficiency

HP 3PAR Thin Conversion Software Leverages zero-detection capabilities within the HP 3PAR Gen3 ASIC to drive the conversion of inefficient ldquofatrdquo volumes on legacy arrays to more efficient ldquothinrdquo volumes on HP 3PAR Storage Systems

HP 3PAR Thin Provisioning SoftwareHP 3PAR Thin Provisioning Software can make any organization more agile and efficient by reducing upfront capacity reservations and allowing disk capacity to be purchased only as needed

Do you have storage pools that arenrsquot really efficient HP 3PAR Thin Provisioning Software solves the problem of inefficient capacity utilization by breaking the traditional linkage between allocated and purchased capacity Demand for thin provisioning solutions combined with increased attention to data

center power consumption has put pressure on vendors to introduce thin provisioning solutions but bolt-on implementations canrsquot deliver the simplicity or the efficiency of thin provisioning

With HP 3PAR Thin Provisioning capacity is dedicated and configured autonomically just-in-time and without active management Rather than create separate pools of storage the software creates one pool from which capacity is dedicated only as data is actually written And while other thin provisioning implementations use coarse allocation units that can range from 1 MB to 17 GB HP 3PAR Thin Provisioning uses a fine-grained 16 KB allocation unit to increase system efficiency

HP 3PAR Thin Conversion Software Leverages zero-detection capabilities within the HP 3PAR Gen3 ASIC to drive the conversion of inefficient ldquofatrdquo volumes on legacy arrays to more efficient ldquothinrdquo volumes on HP 3PAR Storage Systems

HP P9000 for Compatible Parallel Access Volumes and HP P9000 for Compatible Hyper PAV Software enable high-performance concurrent access of mainframe volumes by permitting a mainframe host system to issue multiple IO requests in parallel to individual logical devices within the HP P9500 Disk Array Without PAV mainframe systems can initiate only one IO request per device at a time and must wait for the IO to complete before starting another IO request to the same device By utilizing alias addresses that all point to the same device as the base address PAV enables the host system to start several IO requests simultaneously to the same device thus greatly improving performance

The P9500 Disk Array supports static PAV dynamic PAV and Hyper PAV With static PAV the number of aliases assigned to each base device does not change With dynamic PAV high-workload base devices can borrow idle PAV aliases from other base devices increasing their IO capability

HP 3PAR family software

HP 3PAR InForm Operating System SoftwareProvides advanced internal virtualization capabilities features and tools that increase storage management efficiency capacity utilization and performance in enterprise and cloud data centers

Supported across all HP 3PAR Storage System models HP 3PAR InForm Operating System Software utilizes advanced internal virtualization capabilities features and tools to increase storage management efficiency capacity utilization and performance in enterprise and cloud data centers The InForm OS simplifies storage management by handling provisioning and change management autonomicallymdashintelligently at a subsystem level and without administrator intervention Autonomic provisioning features reduce traditional storage planning by delivering instant application-tailored provisioning Fine-grained virtualization of lower-level components and wide striping of data make sure that service levels remain high and predictable even as the use of the system grows or in the event of a component failure Industry-leading ease of use is delivered through the simple unified HP 3PAR Management Console and the powerful scriptable HP 3PAR Command Line Interface

Additional HP 3PAR Software

HP 3PAR Thin Provisioning SoftwareHP 3PAR Thin Provisioning Software can make any organization more agile and efficient by reducing upfront capacity reservations and allowing disk capacity to be purchased only as needed

Do you have storage pools that arenrsquot really efficient HP 3PAR Thin Provisioning Software solves the problem of inefficient capacity utilization by breaking the traditional linkage between allocated and purchased capacity Demand for thin provisioning solutions combined with increased attention to data

center power consumption has put pressure on vendors to introduce thin provisioning solutions but bolt-on implementations canrsquot deliver the simplicity or the efficiency of thin provisioning

With HP 3PAR Thin Provisioning capacity is dedicated and configured autonomically just-in-time and without active management Rather than create separate pools of storage the software creates one pool from which capacity is dedicated only as data is actually written And while other thin provisioning implementations use coarse allocation units that can range from 1 MB to 17 GB HP 3PAR Thin Provisioning uses a fine-grained 16 KB allocation unit to increase system efficiency

HP 3PAR Thin Conversion Software Leverages zero-detection capabilities within the HP 3PAR Gen3 ASIC to drive the conversion of inefficient ldquofatrdquo volumes on legacy arrays to more efficient ldquothinrdquo volumes on HP 3PAR Storage Systems

What can I do to improve the capacity efficiency of my legacy storage volumes without complex data migration or professional services HP 3PAR Thin Conversion Software leverages the zero-detection capabilities within the HP 3PAR Gen3 ASIC to drive the conversion of inefficient ldquofatrdquo volumes on legacy arrays to more efficient higher utilization ldquothinrdquo volumes on HP 3PAR Storage Systems This ldquothinningrdquo of volumes enables data centers to meet ldquogreen ITrdquo targets reduce wasted space and increase utilization rates Because the fat-to-thin conversion mechanism is built into array hardware volume conversions take place inline at wire speeds while preserving service levels and without disruption to production workloads

With Thin Conversion a technology refresh no longer requires a terabyte-for-terabyte replacement but instead offers the opportunity to reduce capacity requirements by 50 percent or more without the need to invest in professional services

23

HP 3PAR Thin Persistence SoftwareMeans that thin volumes on the HP 3PAR Storage System stay as lean and efficient as possible by leveraging the HP 3PAR Gen3 ASIC to non-disruptively reclaim unused space associated with deleted data

What good are thin provisioning savings if they canrsquot be preserved over time HP 3PAR Thin Persistence Software means that thin volumes on the HP 3PAR Storage System stay as lean and efficient as possible by leveraging the HP 3PAR Gen3 ASIC to reclaim unused space associated with deleted datamdashsimply quickly and non-disruptively Writing and deleting large amounts of data can leave unused space within thin volumes Even lots of small writes and deletions can eventually reduce the efficiency of thin volumes This logical deletion of data without actually freeing up unused space creates a hidden utilization penalty that can really add up over time

HP 3PAR Thin Persistence Software reclaims this unused space to increase capacity efficiency keep costs down and help defer the purchase of additional capacity to handle new data growth Thin Persistence also helps enterprises maintain sustainability targets by keeping down data center power and cooling needs

HP 3PAR Virtual Copy SoftwareEnables HP 3PAR Storage System users to flexibly and affordably protect and share data from any application without sacrificing performance availability or versatility

Need to create snapshots for data backup application recovery business intelligence and to expedite development and testing HP 3PAR Virtual Copy Software flexibly delivers instant point-in-time (PIT) copies of your data so you can share and protect data from any application simply and affordably Use Virtual Copy to stay ahead of the innovation curvemdashfor example by enabling rapid application recoverymdashwhile containing costs with a ldquothin-awarerdquo implementation that reduces the amount of physical capacity that is actually being consumed by your datamdashand without sacrificing performance availability or versatility

Most traditional copy solutions lack flexibility and require too great an investment in online capacity to be considered economical Virtual Copy Software is a reservationless non-duplicative copy-on-write product that consumes capacity only for changed data in fine-grained increments and without ever duplicating changed data within a snapshot tree

HP 3PAR Remote Copy Software Provides enterprise and cloud data centers autonomic disaster recovery and replication technology to protect and share data from any applicationmdashsimply efficiently and affordably

Do you want the ability to replicate data to remote locations more efficiently and cost effectively HP 3PAR Remote Copy Software provides enterprise and cloud data centers with autonomic replication and disaster recovery technology that allows the protection and sharing of data from any application simply efficiently and affordably Remote Copy Software dramatically reduces the cost of remote data replication and disaster recovery by leveraging thin copy technology enabling multi-site and multi-mode replication with both Mid-range and high-end arrays and reducing the need for professional services

HP Remote Copy Software offers fast autonomic disaster recovery configuration set up and testing in minutes from a single window With support for synchronous long distance replication customers now have an affordable multi-site alternative for achieving low recovery time objectives (RTOs) and zero data loss recovery point objectives (RPOs) with complete distance flexibility

24

HP 3PAR Adaptive Optimization SoftwareProvides an autonomic storage tiering solution that enables virtual and cloud data centers to deploy service-level optimization on a broad scale at a low cost and with low risk

Do you want to optimize service levels effortlessly on a large scale and for a lower total cost than other solutions The HP 3PAR Adaptive Optimization Software is a granular policy-driven autonomic storage tiering solution that delivers service-level optimization for virtual and cloud data centers to reduce cost while increasing agility and lowering risk Adaptive Optimization Software delivers the next-generation autonomic storage tiering by taking a fine-grained highly automated approach to service-level optimization Policy-driven granular data movement takes place autonomically providing highly reliable non-disruptive and cost-optimized storage tiering at the sub-volume level to deliver the right QoS to the right data at the right time on a large scale

HP 3PAR Dynamic Optimization Software Alleviates costly and time-consuming quality of service (QoS) level management by giving organizations the ability to react autonomically to changing application and infrastructure requirements

Looking for a storage solution that alleviates costly and time-consuming QoS level management HP 3PAR Dynamic Optimization Software is an autonomic storage tiering tool that provides the ability to react quickly and nondisruptively to changing application and infrastructure requirements Dynamic Optimization enables organizations to achieve optimized data QoS levels at a low cost at all times across all

stages of the disk-based data lifecycle It enables users to nondisruptively alter service levels associated with a storage volume (RAID level subsystem failure protection level drive type stripe width or radial placement) and to rebalance storage volumes each with a single click Policy Advisor for Dynamic Optimization is an add-on application that analyzes how volumes on the HP 3PAR Storage System are using physical disk space and makes intelligent autonomic adjustments to enable optimal volume distribution and tiering of storage volumes

HP 3PAR Virtual Domains SoftwareLifts service levels and lowers cost by enabling consolidation on secure ldquovirtual private arraysrdquo on shared HP 3PAR Storage Systems while preserving the benefits of massively parallel load balancing

Are security and performance concerns standing in the way of infrastructure consolidation The technology of HP 3PAR Virtual Domains Software is capable of providing thousands of secure ldquovirtual private arraysrdquo within a single massively-scalable HP 3PAR Storage System By providing secure administrative segregation of users hosts and application data Virtual Domains allows hosting providers to deliver virtual private array services and enterprise IT organizations to deliver ldquoself-servicerdquo storage that is both secure and capable of high quality-of-service levels Through consolidation onto the massively parallel and dynamically-tiered HP 3PAR Storage System individual user groups and applications achieve greater storage service levels (performance availability and functionality) than pre-consolidation levels with less infrastructure Virtual Domains is ideal for both internal and external storage service providers and for any enterprise deploying a converged infrastructure

25

HP P9000 for FlashCopy Mirroring Software enhances data availability for mainframe data and improves productivity by providing IBM FlashCopy compatible point-in-time copies within an HP P9500 Disk Array As soon as a copy is created it becomes available for use The copy can be either virtual or

physical If a virtual copy is specified it remains a pointer-based copy that only saves the changes from the original However if a physical copy is specified a full copy will be completed in the background while both the source and the copy remain available for access

For additional availability FlashCopy can be combined with Business Copy for Mainframe Continuous Access Synchronous for Mainframe Continuous Access Journal for Mainframe and HP P9000 for Compatible Extended Remote Copy

HP P9000 for Compatible Parallel Access Volumes SoftwareImproves operational efficiency by providing substantially faster access to mainframe data stored on the HP P9500 Disk Array subsystem

HP P9000 for Compatible Parallel Access Volumes and HP P9000 for Compatible Hyper PAV Software enable high-performance concurrent access of mainframe volumes by permitting a mainframe host system to issue multiple IO requests in parallel to individual logical devices within the HP P9500 Disk Array Without PAV mainframe systems can initiate only one IO request per device at a time and must wait for the IO to complete before starting another IO request to the same device By utilizing alias addresses that all point to the same device as the base address PAV enables the host system to start several IO requests simultaneously to the same device thus greatly improving performance

The P9500 Disk Array supports static PAV dynamic PAV and Hyper PAV With static PAV the number of aliases assigned to each base device does not change With dynamic PAV high-workload base devices can borrow idle PAV aliases from other base devices increasing their IO capability
