The new HP StorageWorks 4/256 SAN Director and the HP StorageWorks 4/256 SAN Director Power Pack provide high availability and high performance features required in mission critical Data centre SAN implementations. With up to 384 ports of connectivity in a single domain, the 4/256 SAN director offers flexible scalability for large core-to-edge SAN architectures. The 4/256 SAN Director hardware and software architectures support “five nines” availability with hot-swappable and redundant central processors. Reliability and availability features ensure non disruption when upgrading hardware and software. The 4/256 SAN Director is 1, 2, or 4Gb/s auto-sensing capable and protects customer investment by being fully backward compatible with the entire B-series family of fabric switches and director switches. The Power Pack software provides the SAN administrator with the necessary tools to monitor the health and performance of the network through a single pane of glass.
