The EVA8000 includes: 42U graphite cabinet; dual Power Distribution Units with power cords; dual HSV210 Controller pair; Drive enclosures; four FC loop switches (for 2C6D and 2C12D models); FC interconnect cables between the internal modules; power cords for all modules; and mounting hardware for all models.
summary
The HP StorageWorks 8000 Enterprise Virtual Array is one of three next generation storage array products. Designed specifically for customers in the enterprise marketplace, by offering a high performance, high capacity, and high availability "virtual" array storage solution. Not only does this solution save time, space and costs compared to traditionally architected storage, it is supported by a powerfully simple suite of management software making it easy for users to achieve the highest level of productivity. The EVA8000 is designed for the data center where there is a critical need for improved storage utilization and scalability. The EVA8000 meets application specific demands for consistently high transaction I/O for the enterprise customer. It provides easy capacity expansion, instantaneous replication, and simplified storage administration. The EVA8000 combined with the HP StorageWorks Command View EVA software provides a comprehensive solution designed to simplify and maximize performance. HP offers a full spectrum of complimentary HP StorageWorks EVA hardware and software product services. This ranges from the new Foundation Service Solution, the base level of service included with every EVA, to Critical Service, the support for mission critical environments.
The EVA8000 combined with the HP StorageWorks Command View EVA software suite simplifies and automates large enterprise storage area networks (SANs) and lowers the total cost of ownership. Online LUN growth without compromising application availability. The EVA family has proven that it provides excellent ease-of-use features to customers. Simplicity without compromise:
Increased throughput using new controllers that provide twice the host ports and double the cache mirroring ports for improved I/O performance. Outstanding virtualization features ensure all the disks in the array are used more efficiently, keeping them all busier and eliminating bottlenecks that lower performance.
Ability to add physical disks online quickly with the capacity needed without the restrictions typically associated with adding disks online with traditional arrays. Growth without limits:
State-of-the-art design improves performance, disk usage, and allows for easy dynamic storage expansion.
When new disks are added to groups the controller automatically distributes the data and removes potential hot spots. Unique virtualization capabilities:
Allows immediate use of the clone copy, saving significant time. Virtually instantaneous Snapclone:
Very efficient low cost option. Saves disk space and improves disk utilization efficiency Virtually capacity-free Snapshot (Vsnap):
Supports up to 50.4TB in a single cabinet and up to 72 TB with an expansion cabinet today (and more when larger disks are available) of versatile storage capacity, with any combination of high performance FC and/or low cost FATA drives with any of the supported Vraid types. Can quickly and easily add physical disks online. High capacity:
Enables effectiveness of deployment and delivers the proactive services required to help maintain a stable, highly avai lable EVA8000 storage platform over time. Support:
If you're managing a 24x7 business with little tolerance for unplanned downtime, HP Instant Support Enterprise Edition (ISEE) with proactive remote monitoring can help keep your IT infrastructure highly available.
ISEE, the remote service tool for EVA, provides, at no additional cost, event monitoring and proactive diagnostic capability via transmission of EVA status to the HP Service Center for proactive problem resolution Remote Service Tools:
