• Thin Provisioning allows storage allocation of physical storage resources only once they are consumed by an application.

Thin Provisioning also allows over-provisioning of physical without predicting storage capacity upfront.

• All models feature a wide variety of drives: High-performance SSD drives, enterprise-class SAS, and SAS Midline drives.

• The MSA 2042 will support a maximum of 7 disk enclosures (either LFF and/or SFF). Add-on enclosures can either be

D2700 SFF drive enclosures or MSA 2040 LFF disk enclosures.

• The MSA 2042 can grow incrementally to a maximum of 96 LFF or 199 SFF drives.

• Disks Groups can be spanned across multiple enclosures.

• Virtual Storage RAID levels 1, 5, 6, 10.

• Linear Storage RAID levels 0, 1, 3, 5, 6, 10, 50.

• Maximum hard drive counts vary by RAID levels: 2 drive max for RAID level 1; max of 16 drives for RAID levels 0, 3, 5, 6,

2042 supports 3 distinct tiers:

1. A Performance tier with SSDs

2. A Standard SAS tier with Enterprise SAS HDDs

3. An Archive tier utilizing Midline SAS HDDs.

The MSA 2042 supports sub-LUN tiering and automated data movement between tiers. The MSA 2042 automated tiering engine moves data between available tiers based on the access characteristics of that data. Frequently accessed “pages” will migrate to the highest available tier delivering maximum I/O´s to the application (Performance Tiering). The Performance Tiering functionality is provided at no charge on the MSA 2042.

firmware or later. HPE MSA Remote Snap Software is array based software that provides remote replication on the HPE MSA 2042 Array products. HPE Remote Snap is a form of asynchronous replication which consists of replication of block-level data from a volume on a local system to a volume that may be on the same system or on a second independent system. This second system may be co-located with the first system or may be located at a remote site.

• HPE Remote Snap functionality is based on existing Snapshot technology offered by HPE MSA

SAN and SAS Array products. Snapshots are used to track the data to be replicated as well as to determine the differences in data updated on the master volume, minimizing the amount of data to be transferred.

• HPE Remote Snap replication technology provides the ability to accomplish key data

management and protection capabilities. First, because Remote Snap uses snapshots as the

VMware Site Recovery

VMware vCenter Site Recovery Manager (SRM) is an extension to VMware vCenter that delivers

Site Recovery Adapter

The MSA 2042 SRA, a free-to-use plugin, is the program that integrates the VMware vCenter SRM

implementing and testing the disaster recovery between sites located across geographies. It enables

a remote site which could be used for dispersed operations; and third but definitely not least important replication allows for business continuance in the event of a failure on the primary site.

• In order to perform a replication, a snapshot of the volume to be replicated is taken, creating a

point-in-time image of the data. This point-in-time image is then replicated to the destination volume by copying the data represented by the snapshot via a transport medium such as TCP/IP (iSCSI) or Fibre Channel. The amount of data transferred is minimized though the use of snapshots whenever possible.

NOTE: A Remote Snap License is provided with the MSA2042. One license per array is required for replication. For example, if you have two MSA arrays performing replication (from Primary system to Remote System), you will need a total of 2 licenses.

Product Features

• Storage based asynchronous snapshot replication

• Initial copy of data can be performed locally, reducing burden on wide area networks

• Support of both Ethernet and Fibre Channel interconnects provides flexible options to the

application environments. Remote Snap is not supported on SAS models.

• Snapshot based replication technology means only changed data will be replicated to alternate

site

• Many to 1 replication (up to 4 nodes) - primary use case is to replicate from "many" branch

offices to the home office for the purpose of backing up data from the branches

• Advanced scheduler provides several options to IT administrators for business continuance

• Flexible architecture allows remote replication between MSA 2042 and/or MSA 2040, MSA

1040 or P2000 G3 supported arrays. Protects existing investments and enhances business continuity planning objectives.

• Replication Wizard (Linear only) simplifies the task of setting up and establishing replication

pairs from one unified, easy to use GUI.

• Snapshot based replication enables both local and remote recovery depending on the need.

Snapshot replication isolates problems to a specific point in time which can be selected by the administrator. Additionally snapshot replication supports longer distance replication.

• Multiple relationships provide greater storage flexibility and utilization.

• Bundled 512 Snapshots and Volume Copy integration provides better efficiencies by

combining the management and array technologies to create local copies.

• Fast application recovery with minimal or no transaction loss

• Creation of disaster tolerant copies of your critical business data

• No-single-point-of-failure solution to increase the availability of your customers data

VMware vCenter

provides VMware administrators that are using VMware's vSphere management console (vCenter) with the ability to see how virtual machines are mapped to datastores and individual MSA 2042 volumes. By providing these clear relationships between VM's, datastores and storage, the VMware administrator's productivity increases, as does the ability to ensure quality of service. Roles for administrators can be defined on an individual basis, providing the ability to apply specific permissions for both view and control functions.

HPE OneView for VMware vCenter supports mixed array environments including MSA 2042, MSA 2040, MSA 1040, P2000, EVA, P4000, and the XP array series including the P9500.

When deployed with the MSA 2042 array, HPE OneView provides the following:

• Active Management functionality for the MSA 2042 array:

- Create/Expand/Delete a Datastore

• Monitors the health and status of the MSA 2042

• Displays LUN / volume connections from VMs and ESX servers to the arrays and provides
