The EVA family's redundant architecture and value added software is designed to eliminate single-points­of-failure from server to storage in clustered or single server configurations with multi-pathing.

Expanding the power of the HP StorageWorks Enterprise Virtual Array (EVA), the HP StorageWorks
12000 Virtual Library System EVA Gateway accelerates backup performance in complex SAN
environments while improving overall reliability. Integrating seamlessly into existing backup applications
and processes by emulating popular tape libraries and tape drives, the HP VLS 12000 EVA Gateway
matches the existing data protection environment, removing the need to change backup software or
monitoring policies. Additionally, because the VLS EVA Gateway uses HP EVAs as the storage pool, ease
of use is maintained throughout the system. By emulating multiple tape drives simultaneously, more backup
jobs can be done in parallel resulting in reduced backup times and, because the data resides on disk,
single file restores are exceptionally fast.

See Operating System, Cluster and High Availability Compatibility matrix for Operating System

The HP Virtual Library System EVA Gateway simplifies your SAN environment by providing more virtual
devices and leveraging existing switches and HP EVA infrastructure. The result is the ability to vastly
increase scale yet reduce the complexity of shared storage while maintaining the manageability of the
system. As your environment changes, the HP Virtual Library System EVA Gateway adapts to it - host
masking and mapping ensure that only the appropriate hosts have access to the HP Virtual Library System.

The HP StorageWorks IP Distance Gateway provides SAN over WAN connectivity for protecting and
replicating data between EVA systems. By connecting islands of SANs over WANs, the IP Distance
Gateway enables CA replication (Asynchronous and Synchronous), SAN device sharing, data migration
and other long distance data services. At the core of providing long distance data services is the ability to
copy, move and replicate data locally and over long distances. However, SANs have limited distance
capabilities (10km) and IT managers need to share, protect and move data over greater distances than
10km, routers and switches that link SANs over IP WANs is the weapon of choice for most IT managers.
The IP Distance Gateway uses the FCIP (Fibre Channel Internet Protocol) standard to extend SAN
connectivity over the WAN.

Enclosed as an accessory with all StorageWorks arrays is HP Systems Insight Manager (SIM). HP SIM is
the foundation for HP's unified server-storage strategy -- it is packaged as a no-cost, customer installable
management application and is derived from the heritage of Compaq Insight Manager, HP Toptools, and
HP Servicecontrol. HP SIM runs on HP Windows, Linux, and HP-UX and provides discovery and
identification, fault management, security administration, asset reporting, and centralized configuration
management across heterogeneous servers, storage and infrastructure. HP SIM is easily extensible,
integrating other HP management products and value-add plug-ins such as the ProLiant Essentials, Integrity
Essentials, and Server Essentials.

HP SIM relies on industry standards like SMI-S, SNMP, SSH, WBEM, and WMI to detect and report
heterogeneous device attributes. HP SIM may also be configured to launch array specific applications for
configuration, reporting and replication. For more information on HP Systems Insight Manager see:

http://www.docs.hp.com/en/netsys.html

Dual and multi-node cluster support is provided for host level fault tolerance and high system availability.
See the Operating System, Cluster and High Availability Compatibility table for operating system specific
support.

Heterogeneous and homogeneous host support provides the ability to share storage between multiple
servers. The EVA provides storage access control (i.e. Selective Storage Presentation or LUN masking)
assuring that a host cannot access data belonging to a different host. SAN-based zoning is also
supported.

Single-pathing (or single HBA per host) support is provided for all supported operating systems (but may
be version dependent). Use of single-pathing, which does not offer a redundant path option, should be
used with care. Failure of the single HBA will result in loss of access for that host until the HBA is
replaced.

The EVA provides one of the highest density disk storage solutions in the industry. The EVA8100 in the
42U HP 10000 G2 Series Rack supports up to twelve 3U 14-bay M5314C FC disk enclosures for a
maximum capacity of 168 disk drives and a maximum storage capacity of 168 TB of disk capacity. An
expansion cabinet allows users to expand with another six enclosures for a total of up to eighteen disk
enclosures, up to 240 disks, and up to 240TB.

HP offers a spectrum of offerings allowing customers to align their payments according to the usage of
storage capacity.

For customers requiring assistance in managing their storage infrastructure, Managed Storage
Solution (MSS) meets that need while providing the option to acquire storage on a utility model.
Customers have the ability to choose other options like Backup/Restore, Data Availability, Local
Copy and Remote Copy services. All these capabilities are offered at a $/GB/Month fee.
For customers that want to build and manage their own storage utility, Utility Ready Storage (URS)
provides customers with storage that never runs out; priced as the customer uses it; and is easy to
procure. URS pricing is based on $/GB/Month of average allocated capacity over the customer's
minimum commitment. URS provides a unique opportunity to allow customers access to storage
when they need it, permitting them to adapt to their changing business needs.
For customers whose need is best described by predictable growth, Pay per forecast (PPF), offered
from HP Financial Services, is an ideal fit. It is a step lease based solution where the payments are
structured upfront according to the customer's forecasted growth.
For even further demanding financial needs of customers, HP Financial Services are ready to craft a
customized solution for them.

FATA Drive Support

Fibre Channel Technology

The EVA supports 500GB and 1TB dual ported 2 Gb/s Fibre Attached Technology Adapted (FATA) disk.
An EVA will support a full configuration of FATA disk drives. The EVA4100 Starter Kits,
EVA4100/6100/8100 can be configured with any combination of FATA and high performance disk
drives; total raw capacity will vary based upon the redundancy (Vraid) selected. A minimum of eight FATA
drives are required in a configuration.

FATA drives are designed for lower duty cycle applications such as near on-line data replication for back­up. These drives should not be used as a replacement for EVA's high performance, standard duty cycle,
Fibre Channel drives. Doing so could shorten the life of the drive.

Please see the following URL for more information on FATA drives, their uses and their benefits:

http://h71028.www7.hp.com/ERC/downloads/5982-7353EN.pdf

The EVA4100 Starter Kits and EVA4100/6100/8100 takes advantage of the benefits of Fibre Channel
(FC) in distance, performance and connectivity. The use of optical Fibre cabling allows distances between
connected segments of a SAN to be up to 500 meters @ 1 Gb/s; 300 meters @ 2 Gb/s using short
wave multi-mode cable and up to 10 kilometers (6.21 miles) @ 1 Gb/s when using long wave cable.
The EVA4100 Starter Kit and EVA4100/EVA6100/EVA 8100 with XCS v6.1100 for HSV200 and
HSV210 are 4 Gb/s enabled on each FC path, but will also support 2 Gb/s FC paths for backwards
compatibility. Storage Area Networks (SANs) can be constructed using FC switches/directors for fabric
connectivity (currently up to a maximum of 20 FC switches supported).

Easy Installation

Support for up to twenty FC switches operating at 2 Gb/s and FC switches operating at 4 Gb/s allow
the full benefits of a storage area network (SAN), providing exceptional connectivity while increasing the
effective bandwidth of the network. Supported SAN features include Zoning for communication isolation
and Inter-Switch Links (hops) up to 10 km. The EVA4100 Starter Kits and EVA4100/6100/8100
supports 4 Gb/s FC enabled with XCS vv6.110.
For more information on specific support specifications see the following Switch URL:

http://h18006.www1.hp.com/storage/saninfrastructure/switches.html

The EVA4100 Starter Kits and EVA4100/6100 has two FC host interfaces per HSV200-B controller; four
for a controller pair. The EVA8100 has four FC host interfaces per HSV210-B controller; eight for a
controller pair. Each controller-to-host interface is 4 Gb/s. The controllers are also compatible with 2
Gb/s and 4 Gb/s FC switches, HBAs, servers and other storage solutions.

Each EVA controller pair interfaces with M5314C drive enclosures either directly or through fibre channel
loop switches. With 2 (for EVA4100/6100) and 4 (for EVA8100) device ports per controller and dual
FC I/O modules per drive enclosure, each controller can connect to each FC drive A and B port. So
each controller has a redundant path to each drive.

The EVA4100 Starter Kits and EVA4100/6100/8100 predefined models ship from the factory fully
configured. After unpacking, they can be plugged into power sources, connected to the FC SAN,
enabled and configured using Command View EVA and they are ready for use.

Continuous Access EVA is a controller-based application that performs real-time replication between HP
StorageWorks Enterprise Virtual Arrays. The solution is enhanced to perform remote replication, and
deliver high data availability and performance to users on Fibre Channel based campus, metro or
continental Storage Area Networks (SANs).

HP StorageWorks Disaster Tolerant Solution for mySAP Business Suite on EVA offers a business
continuance solution for SAP environments, where data integrity and value added functionality are high
priorities. Best practices for implementing remote mirroring of an SAP database as part of an overall data
protection strategy with SAP applications can be found at:

http://h71028.www7.hp.com/ERC/downloads/4AA1-5683ENW.pdf

All EVA are configured with dual HSV controllers that operate in a redundant mode. Each controller has
redundant Fibre Channel (FC) host ports (2 for the EVA4100 Starter Kits EVA4100/6100 and 4 for the
EVA8100). Each EVA4100/6100 controller has two FC device ports and the EVA8100 controller has
four FC device ports. For the EVA4100 Starter Kits and EVA4100/6100/8100 in the event of a path
failure, the alternate paths to the controller can be utilized with the use of multi-path software in the
Operating System or in Secure Path software.

http://h18006.www1.hp.com/storage/software.html

On the EVA4100 Starter Kits and EVA4100 each port connects to one FC I/O module on a drive
enclosure. Up to four drive enclosures can be connected in a FC loop arrangement with a controller pair
and connect to one port of up to 56 drives. With the two FC ports per controller, each controller can
connect to both ports on up to 56 disk drives for redundant paths to all 56 drives. On the EVA6100 each
port connects to a FC loop switch which in turn connects to one FC I/O module on up to eight drive
enclosures and to one port of up to 112 disk drives. On the EVA8100 each port connects to a FC loop
switch which in turn connects up to one FC I/O module on the drive enclosures and to one port of up to
168 disk drives. With the four FC ports, each controller can connect to both ports on up to 240 disk
drives for redundant paths to all 240 drives.

EVA8100 configurations, with more than four drive enclosures, are configured with two pairs of FC-AL
switches connected between the two controllers and the drive enclosures. Up to nine drive enclosures can
be redundantly connected to each pair of switches, which are redundantly connected to each controller.
Each loop switch is independently powered and cooled. Should one loop switch fail, it can be replaced
while I/Os continue through the remaining redundant loop switch.

The HSV controllers also have dual redundant hot plug power supplies and dual redundant hot plug
blowers. Each controller has hot plug cache batteries to maintain cache contents for up to 96 hours in
case of a total power failure.

The M5314C FC drive enclosure has dual redundant hot plug FC I/O modules that allow the controllers
to distribute I/Os between the two modules and provides redundant paths should either FC I/O module
become unavailable. The enclosure also has dual redundant hot plug power supplies and dual hot plug
blowers. The enclosure also has a hot plug Environmental Monitoring Unit (EMU) to monitor and report the
condition of the power supplies and fans. The EMU can be replaced without affecting I/O operations.

The FC and FATA disk drives have dual FC ports which can be redundantly accessed by each controller.
The drives are hot plug. The drives can be arranged, using redundant Vraid1 or Vraid5 protection, so that
a drive failure will not cause loss of data. Optional virtual sparing can be configured so that a drive
failure will trigger an automatic rebuild of the Vraid1 or Vraid5 protection using the virtual spare.

All EVAs have dual redundant power distribution. Two independent power cords distribute power through
two Power Distribution Units (PDUs) to each side of the EVA cabinets and to each power supply of the
controllers and to each power supply of the drive enclosures and to each of the FC loop switches. Each
cabinet power cord can be connected to independent power sources. For maximum availability, a
customer should provide redundant power from independent power circuit breakers, independent power
lines from the power company and even independent power companies.

Integration

EVA Manageability

HP EVA4100 Starter Kits and EVA4100/6100/8100 models are 4Gb/s FC Switched Fabric "enabled"
and can operate on 4Gb/s or 2Gb/s FC Switched Fabric SANs. They can co-exist in the same FC SAN
with EVA3000 and EVA5000 FC storage solutions and many other SAN devices.

HP StorageWorks Command View EVA provides the capability to manage the EVA Array family in a
SAN or direct connect Fibre Channel host attach configuration. HP Command View EVA software runs on
a variety of server configurations; ProLiant DL380 G5 and DL585 G2 Storage Servers are the perfect
platforms from which to run Command View EVA. ProLiant Storage Server gateway models (including the
DL380 G5 x64 SAN Storage Server and DL585 G2 Storage Server) allow you to stretch your investment
by combining EVA management, file and print services, and iSCSI connectivity all on the same platform.

The powerful Command View EVA provides an easy mechanism to manage up to 16 EVA units in a SAN
configuration. Industry leading security enhancements in Command View now allows administrators to
take advantage of Windows domains and local groups. Command View integrates with Windows Active
Directory to authorize and authenticate users. In addition, all user actions and events that change system
state are logged. Administrators can now use the audit logging capabilities to see who did what and
when.

The Command View EVA media kits and license are required with all EVA models. HP Command View
EVA requires a License to use (LTUs) equal to, or greater than the total raw capacity of each array. For the
HP EVA4100 Starter Kits, Command View EVA software is included as well as licensing for up to 4 TBs
as part of the bundled offering.

Performance

NOTE:
EVA4100 Starter Kits.

Fibre Channel host connections provide up to 200MB/s bandwidth for each path. Dual mirrored port
write caching capability, with battery backed cache, maintains optimal availability while assuring data
integrity in the event of a failure.

Each HSV200-B controller (for EVA4100 Starter Kits, EVA4100/6100 configurations) has two Fibre
Channel host ports (four ports in a redundant pair of controllers) assuring the availability of bandwidth for
the most demanding applications. In addition, up to 4GB of cache per controller pair ensures high
performance.

Each HSV210-B controller (for EVA8100 configurations) has four Fibre Channel host ports (eight ports in a
redundant pair of controllers) assuring the availability of bandwidth for the most stringent applications. In
addition, up to 8GB of cache per controller pair ensures high performance.

Scalability

EVA as Virtualized Storage
behind the XP

A storage management server can manage up to 16 EVA controller pairs (EVA 3000s, EVA5000s,
EVA4x00 Starter Kits, EVA4x00s, EVA6x00s and/or EVA8x00s) in any one fabric. An EVA controller
pair will support up to 256 host connections (up to 1024 HBAs).

The EVA4100 Starter Kits and EVA4100 will scale up to 56 disks (56TB using 1TB FATA disk drives, and

25.2TB using 450GB high performance disk drives).

The EVA6100 will scale up to 112 disks (112TB using 1TB FATA disk drives, and 50.4TB using 450 GB
high performance disk drives).

The EVA8100 will scale up to 168 disks in a single cabinet and with the addition of an optional utility
cabinet, an EVA8100 will scale up to 240 disks (240TB using 1TB FATA disk drives, and 108TB using
450GB high performance disk drives).

Configure to Order (CTO) options and the HP 10000 G2 Series Racks allow even greater server and
device integration, flexibility and scalability for the EVA4100 Starter Kits and EVA4100/6100/8100.
Data center managers can customize server, storage and back-up configurations as well as using the
residual cabinet U space to mount Storage Management servers, switches and have the peace of mind
that it is built with HP factory precision manufacturing. The EVA8100 2C2D, 2C6D, and 2C12D, now
allows customers to configure-to-order their new EVA8100 units from HP manufacturing.

HP StorageWorks EVA4100 Starter Kits and EVA4100/6100/8100 disk arrays can be connected as
external storage devices behind HP StorageWorks XP disk arrays.

The XP24000/XP20000 simplifies the management of heterogeneous SAN environments through its
ability to support up to 247 PB/ 96 PB respectively of external storage-all configured 'behind' a single XP.
XP External Storage software uses advanced virtualization technology to allow storage administrators to
host XP Disk Array LUNs on externally attached disk arrays. Any Fibre Channel port from any CHA pair
installed in any slot can be used to connect to external storage EVA4100 Starter Kits and
EVA4100/6100/8100.

With external EVA storage, XP presents multiple tiers of storage to a wide range of host systems. Instead
of seeing a confusing collection of arrays, host systems perceive all the data to be stored inside the XP
disk array. In effect, the XP disk array becomes the storage controller for a flexible, multi-tiered collection
of EVAs with a range of cost and performance capabilities. By configuring EVA storage arrays behind a
single XP24000/XP20000, data can be moved back and forth dynamically across tiers, all of which is
invisible to the applications.

The XP12000's virtualization feature also reduces the total cost of storage ownership by:

Exploiting common storage management across multiple vendors' systems
Easily deploying a dual-vendor policy
Facilitating simpler and lower cost data migrations
Increasing storage utilization
Extending the life of legacy storage

For the EVA4100 Starter Kits, EVA4100, EVA6100 and EVA8100 a variety of HP 10000 G2 Series
Rack offerings and integration options are available. The EVA configurator tools utilize a 42U HP 10000
G2 Series Rack as the standard recommendation and will provide a 220/240V PDU and country
specific power cords. The EVA4100 Starter Kits and EVA4100/6100/8100 configurations can be
customized to meet a wide variety of customer needs. Both the height and types of rack and PDUs can be
modified based upon the specific customer need. If other devices, such as servers, switches or back-up
devices, are to be installed with the EVA; this can be specified and the cabinets and PDUs can be
modified to support the configuration. The EVA4100 Starter Kits and EVA4100/6100 also support 22U
and 36U racks and 100V PDUs.

J.D. Power Gives HP a Seal of Approval
Good service is a key factor in deciding which computer or printer to buy these days, and Hewlett­Packard hopes a customer service endorsement from J.D. Power and Associates will help boost sales of
HP products. HP said this week it is the first company to receive the
Technology Service and Support certification

Consumers will soon see the J.D. Power and Associates service mark on product boxes, web sites and
advertising for everything from HP PCs and all-in-one devices to HP cameras and fee-based services. To
earn the certification, HP performed within the top 20 percent of technology support organizations on a
variety of customer service criteria. J.D. Power and Associates found that HP has met or exceeded this
new standard for customer satisfaction in supporting its North American customers.

NOTES:

1

Upgrading an EVA4100 to an EVA6100 does not require a controller replacement. 2 FC loop switches must be added, Business

Copy EVA and Continuous Access EVA upgrade licenses must be purchased if previously installed.

2

The addition of the loop switches or the addition of the EVA8100 controller assembly and loop switches requires down time and

would be an opportunity to upgrade firmware, hardware and software components.

3

Proper Command View licensing requires a License To Use (LTUs) equal to, or greater than the total raw capacity of each array and
may be purchased in additive increments of 1TB or Unlimited LTUs). Correct licensing should be checked when expanding an
EVA4100.
