Overview

The HP StorageWorks 12000 Virtual Library System EVA Gateway offers fast data protection and backup in complex SAN environments for customers with HP StorageWorks Enterprise Virtual Array (EVA) installations. It is a multi-node (up to 8 nodes) gateway solution for the EVA that offers industry-leading performance and easily scales in performance and capacity to 4800 MB/sec and 1080 TB of useable storage with 2:1 hardware compression. The VLS12000 EVA Gateway supports the licensing of Accelerated deduplication which retains up to 50 times more data readily available on disk. Accelerated deduplication delivers fast backup performance since the deduplication process does not impact the backup. The VLS12000 EVA Gateway integrates seamlessly into existing backup applications and processes. It is a highly available solution using HP ProLiant servers with redundant subsystems. As storage requirements grow, the VLS12000 matches the environment by scaling both capacity and performance.

Features

Fast data restoration and backup performance: The HP StorageWorks 12000 Virtual Library System EVA Gateway is a multi-node gateway solution for the EVA that easily scales in performance and capacity to 4800 MB/sec and 1080 TB of useable storage, with hardware compression. Accelerated deduplication retains up to 50 times more data readily available on disk.

Cost-effective data protection and on-going management: The VLS12000 EVA Gateway is deployed, managed and operated just like a tape library minimizing disruptions to your environment. Emulations include the HP StorageWorks ESL and MSL series tape libraries as well as HP 1/8 G2 Autoloader and all HP Ultrium Tape Drives as well as DLT7000, DLT8000 and SDLT 320 Tape Drives.

Reliability: While the VLS12000 EVA Gateway contains reliable hardware featuring hot plug disk drives, standard redundant power supplies and fans, the real reliability is for your data protection process. Simplifying the process by which storage is shared means fewer errors occur.

Easy operation: The VLS12000 EVA Gateway is deployed, managed and operated just like a tape library minimizing disruptions to your environment. Emulations include the HP StorageWorks ESL and MSL series tape libraries as well as HP 1/8 G2 autoloaders and all HP Ultrium Tape Drives and DLT7000, DLT8000 and SDLT 320 Tape Drives.

Automigration: The HP Virtual Library Systems support Automigration which allows VLS to move data to a physical library or another VLS. HP Data Protector 6.1 will support Smart copy, an enhanced copy, whereby DP manages the move and VLS implements it. Smart copy will be further enhanced when HP delivers low-bandwidth replication.
