Features
•
Simplicity without compromise: The EVA6000 and HP StorageWorks Command View EVA software offerings simplify and automates any SAN and lowers TCO. The EVA provides online LUN growth, easy dynamic capacity expansion, instantaneous data replication and automatically optimizes performance. The EVA family is an excellent choice for stress-free IT consolidation
•
Agility: High throughput using new controllers with 2 Gb and 4 Gb connectivity, double the cache mirroring ports (from early generations) for improved I/O performance. Outstanding virtualization ensures all the disks in the array are used more efficiently, keeping them all busier and eliminating bottlenecks that lower performance
•
Agility: Add physical disks online quickly to increase capacity without restrictions typically associated with capacity expansion on traditional arrays. Mix High Performance and FATA drives on the same enclosure for maximum efficiency and cost savings
•
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. A powerful solution which provides integrated iSCSI connectivity with the features of an EVA without the need to install extensive Fibre Channel infrastructure
•
Virtually instantaneous Snapclone and capacity-free Snapshot (Vsnap): Allows immediate use of the clone copy, saving significant time. And provides a very efficient low cost option data replication option. Saves disk space and improves disk efficiency and utilization
