• HPE 3PAR File Controller Dashboard consolidates all key status information such as capacity utilization,
performance, and health in a single interface and reduces the need to navigate multiple tools and
interfaces for system monitoring. Low capacity warning email alerts now available to minimize disruption.
• HPE 3PAR StoreServ File Controller Tools menu within Windows Server manager to access the most
commonly accessed tools and tasks that an administrator uses for day-to-day management. The 3PAR
StoreServ File Controller Tools menu provides management of storage pools, snapshots, emails and
alerts, enclosure settings, and firmware updates. It also includes access to the Deduplication Evaluation
tool, storage viewer and the initial configuration task wizard.
• Windows Storage Server 2016 includes a set of new and enhanced features, in addition to all of the
existing WSS2012 R2 features around advanced security and data services. StoreEasy 3850 system
based on WSS 2016 has an improved deduplication engine that supports files up to 1TB and file
systems up to 64TB. Additionally, new security and encryption technologies provide stronger protection
against man-in-the-middle attacks.
• Windows Storage Server 2012 R2 (WSS2012 R2) includes a robust range of file serving and storage
capabilities. It addresses heterogeneous environments and it enables more efficient storage utilization.
WSS2012 R2 delivers a similar level of performance and reliability comparable to more expensive
storage solutions and it offers support for both file SMB/CIFs and NFS protocols, allows for a flexible mix
of configurations and includes advanced data management tools.
• WSS2016 or WSS2012 R2 leverages your Windows Server management skill sets and tools including

SMB 3.1.1 protocol only supported in WSS2016.
feature-rich storage for business-critical applications and virtual servers using advanced new
functionality.
- SMB 3.1.1 protocol: Enhances security between SMB clients and StoreEasy. When both a client
and StoreEasy connect over SMB 3.1.1, SMB signing and encryption protects against an
attacker tampering with or eavesdropping on any network packets. SMB 3.1.1 with AES-128GCM, the latest fixed cryptographic algorithm, showed a 2x performance improvement
compared with SMB 3.0 using AES-128-CCM in certain scenarios such as copying large files
over an encrypted SMB connection.
- SMB 3.X.X Multi-channel: Enable aggregation of network bandwidth and network fault tolerance
when multiple paths are available between SMB clients and file servers.
- SMB 3.1.1. Multichannel and Multi-NIC Cluster Networks: Allows the use of multiple NICs on the
same cluster network subnet and automatically enables SMB Multichannel. This allows
customers to maximize throughput of SMB 3.1.1 network traffic.
- NFS v4.1: Server for NFS has been updated to support continuous availability. These
improvements make it possible to reliably store and run VMware ESX on a virtual machine that
is running Windows Server by using the NFS v4.1 protocol to share files. Additional
improvements in failover clustering take advantage of better resilience to hardware and
software outages that may afflict individual cluster nodes. At the same time, failover clustering
isolates VMware ESX hypervisor hosts from intermittent glitches during failovers.

• VSS for Remote SMB File Shares: Leverage proven Volume Shadow Copy Service (VSS) to offload
- File screening: File screens help you control the types of files that user can store on a file server.
You can limit the extension that can be stored on your shared files. For example, you can create
a file screen that does not allow files with an MP3 extension to be stored in personal shared
folders on a file server.
- File Classification Infrastructure: File Classification Infrastructure provides insight into your data
by automating classification processes so that you can manage your data more effectively. You
can classify files and apply policies based on this classif
access control for restricting access to files, file encryption, and file expiration. Files can be
classified automatically by using file classification rules or manually by modifying the properties
of a selected file or folder.
- File Management Tasks: File Management Tasks enables you to apply a conditional policy or
action to files based on their classification. The conditions of a file management task include the
file location, the classification properties, the date the file was created, the last modified date of
the file, or the last time the file was accessed. The actions that a file management task can take
include the ability to expire files, encrypt files, or run a custom command.

manage storage performance for virtual machines using Hyper-V and the Scale-Out File Server roles.
- Data deduplication enables WSS2016 and WSS2012 R2 to store more data in less physical
space for greater storage efficiency. Data deduplication uses variable size chunking and
compression, which deliver optimization ratios of 2:1 for general file servers and up to 20:1 for
virtualization data. Evaluate your deduplication savings with the included deduplication
evaluation tool which allows you to determine the expected savings that you would get if
deduplication is enabled on a particular volume. The Deduplication evaluation tool supports
local drives and mapped or unmapped remote shares.
- Data deduplication within Windows Storage Server 2016 has specific improvements for
deduping large volumes and large files - up to 64 TB and 1TB respectively. In WSS 2012 R2, it
was recommended to run deduplication on volumes under 10TB in size. WSS 2016’s
deduplication engine will run multiple threads in parallel using multiple I/0 queues on a single
volume and thereby improve the performance for deduping large volumes.

devices, often referred to as bring-your-own device (BYOD), in addition to corporate PCs. Users gain a
convenient location to store work files, and they can access them from anywhere. Organizations maintain
control over corporate data by storing the files on centrally managed file servers, and optionally
specifying user device policies such as encryption and lock-screen passwords. Work Folders can be
deployed with existing deployments of Folder Redirection, Offline Files, and home folders. Work Folders
stores user files in a folder on the server called a sync share. You can specify a folder that already
contains user data, which enables you to adopt Work Folders without migrating servers and data or
immediately phasing out your existing solution. Work folders in support on Windows 10, Windows 8.1,

• DFS Namespaces: Enables you to group shared folders that are located on different servers into one or
more logically structured namespaces. Each namespace appears to users as a single shared folder with a
series of subfolders. However, the underlying structure of the namespace can consist of numerous file
shares that are located on different servers and in multiple sites.
• Distributed File System Replication (DFS-R): Enables you to efficiently replicate folders (including those
referred to by a DFS namespace path) across multiple servers and sites. DFS Replication uses a
compression algorithm known as remote differential compression (RDC). RDC detects changes to the
data in a file, and it enables DFS Replication to replicate only the changed file blocks instead of the entire
file.
• New VHDX Standard: Deploy larger capacity virtual storage that can grow to 64 terabytes, is more
resilient against corruption, and provides more efficient usage of new 4 KB sector hard disks with the
new VHDX virtual storage standard.
• Live Storage Migration: Maintain maximized service-level availability even while moving virtual machine
storage between host servers independent of the actual virtual machine.

Windows Server 2012 R2 and Windows Storage Server 2012 R2 are built on the same code base.
Applications certified for Windows Server are expected to have the same application compatibility profile
on Windows Storage Server. Windows Server and Windows Storage Server have the same application
frameworks, services and plumbing to support running the full breadth of Window-compatible
applications. Applications that rely upon certain roles that are removed from Windows Storage Server
2016 and 2012 R2, such as fax server, active directory domain controller or terminal services will not be
able to leverage those roles. Independent Software Vendors (ISVs) ultimately decide what versions and
editions of Windows Server or Windows Storage Server are supported by their products and users should
review ISV compatibility and support information before purchasing. HPE StoreEasy customers should
review the End User License Agreement (EULA) to see the types of applications that are permitted for
