The storage challenge: Rapid, continuous

growth
Research shows that file growth is exceeding that of database
and email

Productivity: Word, Excel, PDFs, PowerPoint

Media & animation: security, digital film production, video, audio
Imaging: photographs, cheque images, scanned images, x-rays,
geo/satellite images, etc.
Manufacturing: CAD/CAM, source code, EDA

Your customers mission

Reduce infrastructure requirements (and costs) instead of adding
to them
Reduce or eliminate the need for more IT resource time

2006 MicroAge

Top five storage roadblocks

Runaway costs

Need to meet rising data volume needs without increasing management

overhead

Complicated installation and deployment

Can be time-consuming, labour-intensive, with too much downtime

Manageability

Too many servers, too much data, too many other priorities
Sluggish network
Data volume overload reduces system responsiveness
Business risk
Need to simplify safeguarding or archived business-critical information

2006 MicroAge

Customers storage wish list

Make it easy to install
Make it easy to manage
Make it easy to expand

HP X1000 Automated Storage Manager (HP ASM)

Unbelievably simple management: Application-centric management hides
storage complexity and allows IT managers to manage storage at the application
level while embedded logic makes anybody look like a storage expert

Radically simple: View storage

usage in application terms:
Exchange, SQL, File Shares,
User-defined data...
Worry free storage: Set
warning thresholds and receive
e-mail alerts when applications
are running out of capacity.
Disruption free growth: Easily
allocate more space to specific
applications without impacting
end-users
Data protection with no backup
window: Setup application
aware snapshot and
backup/replication policies by
data type and easily recover
with the click of a mouse.

2006 MicroAge

Without HP ASM: Moving Exchange to shared storage

1. Locate, read & understand
Exchange storage best
practices
2. Use Array Control Utility to
build Logical Disks. (NAS)
3. Use Disk Manager to initialize
Disks and create Volumes
(NAS)
4. Use iSCSI Target UI to build
iSCSI Pools/LUNs (NAS)
5. Use iSCSI Initiator to connect
iSCSI LUNs (Exchange Server)
6. Use Disk Manager to build NTFS

(Exchange Manager)
7. Use Exchange System Manager
to migrate DBs/Logs (Exchange

HP X1000 Automated Storage Manager

Its like having a storage expert in the box Automated data migration
and setup wizards make the move to network storage a quick and
painless experience. Best practice logic ensures that storage is setup for
optimal performance
1) Launch Exchange Migration
Tool and select an Exchange
Server
2) Select the storage group and

Why use an HP X1000/X3000 Network Storage System

for dedicated File Sharing?

Achieve 15-20% faster file serving than general purpose Windows

Server
Microsoft datasheet: Due to file server optimization, Windows Storage Server is 15-20%
faster than a general purpose Windows Server in file servingWindows Storage Server is
designed (and optimized) as a dedicated file and print serving appliance.

Increases disk utilization by >35% with file based de-duplication

SIS Deduplication: store only one instance on the disk although several copies of the same
file might exist shown to save more than 35% disk space and reduce storage
management costs

Find data quickly from the users desk top. What tools are
available?
quickly and efficiently locate what they store Users search the content of their files
from the convenience of their desktops

Provide shared storage (i.e., flexible storage capacity) for

application servers

Customer Impact of the MSA2000 family

Customer
Problem

What they do today

Business/IT
A: Buy more servers to
have more DAS
Storage needs
growing
exponentially

How the MSA2000 solves the

problem & adds business
value

Why now with HP?

A: Provides a choice of highperformance reasonably priced shared

storage/SAN solutions

A: One source
servers and storage
together, one support
organization

B: Poor return on
investment with stranded
capacity and high
management costs of DAS

B: Gives the choice of Fibre Channel,

iSCSI, or SAS for attaching to hosts

C: Expensive outsourcing
sometimes sought as an
answer

C: Allows the user to start with a very

small configuration and grow
modularly as they need. The new
MSA2000 G2 supports even more total
storage than before

D: Contrary to good
business practices, risky
deletion of older files to
make space

D: Built on a long term relationship

with products from a single source
that the customer can count on being
available for extended periods

Differentiators

B: Thousands of
trained and certified
resellers
C: Economies of scale
allow for an extremely
competitive low cost
D: More experience in
the entry-level SAN
segment translates to
HP being able to
provide the most
suitable products for
these needs

Position the MSA2000 family as the ideal family of Arrays for the entry-level storage due to its
unsurpassed flexibility of host connect choices, appropriate drive types, scalability, and ease of use
all at highly affordable total costs

HP beats the competition

HP-specific
Features

Benefits

2.5-in SAS Drives

More spindles greater I/O performance

Smaller size reduce power and cooling

70% less space and 50% less power than 3.5-in drives

8-node Clustering (singlepath)

Most number of nodes per storage device in the market without using a switch

4-node Clustering (dualpath)

Provides high-availability for critical application such as Exchange or SQL

Superior cache Technology

Super Capacitors superior advantage over conventional battery backed up cache protection

Ensures cache data is stored safely when power fails

System enters write-back mode in minutes vs. hours with batteries

Up to 10 year life span eliminates periodic battery replacement down time

Environmentally friendly corresponds with our global responsibility spirit

All configuration, management, partitioning, and licensing software come standard with no extra
charge

Lowers the total cost of ownership

No need to pay extra for upgrading cache for performance gain

1 GB Standard transportable for single controller configuration

Larger disk drives exposes customer to:

Software Support

1 GB Cache Standard
RAID (6)

69

LUN Size, max 16 TB

Extended rebuild times

Chance of a second disk drive failure and therefore data loss during rebuild

Best fault tolerance because any two drives can fail without affecting data integrity

Superior data protection

Minimal performance penalty

> 2 TB compliments larger drive size, databases and applications
