Key Benefits |
|
|
- Shared storage solution for HP BladeSystem c-Class application servers: Managed through a single interface, the AiO SB600c Storage Blade provides shared application storage (iSCSI SAN), file serving (NAS), and data protection below the cost of separate products and installs directly inside a HP BladeSystem c-Class enclosure.
- Efficient use of storage capacity easily accommodates growing applications: Sharing storage between servers is more efficient and costs less to manage over time when compared against adding additional drives to individual servers. Sharing storage means that you maximize investments in additional capacity while enabling easier growth and shorter backup windows.
- Best Practice toolkit makes every IT Administrator look like a storage expert: The SB600c includes tools to easily migrate and manage data using best practice settings. For example, iSCSI storage for a Microsoft Exchange Storage Group can be expertly setup and migrated in fewer than 10 mouse clicks, saving you time and reducing the potential for error.
- Enhanced file serving for clients (NAS) to improve productivity and collaboration: The SB600c is tuned for faster file serving performance (beyond standard Windows servers). Single Instance Storage (SIS) can improve capacity utilization by 30% or more by eliminating duplicate files within shared volumes. Full text search capabilities increase the speed of end-user search.
- Comprehensive and integrated data protection to ensure easy roll-back and disaster recovery: Provides an easy mechanism to manage disk based snapshots for easy rollback, integrated data protection software for offsite and archive, hot-plug disk drives (RAID), and hardware redundancy. Data can also be replicated to another system for enhanced disaster recovery.
- Easy to deploy and manage so you can focus on your core business: The industry standard iSCSI interface provides the benefits of shared SAN storage on a traditional TCP/IP network. HP BladeSystem c-Class storage ensures reliability and easy support. The All-in-One Storage Manager quickly walks administrators through all setup and management tasks..
- Application-centric storage management simplifies operation and lowers costs: The All-in-One Storage Manager uses terms and functions that are familiar to application administrators. Includes easy iSCSI storage management for 32-bit and 64-bit Windows Server 2003 application servers. Data migration and optimization wizards for Microsoft Exchange 2003/2007 and SQL Server 2000/2005.
- Award winning warranty, support and troubleshooting tools to ensure worry-free operation: The SB600c can send alerts for various events such as an impending disk failure reducing the potential for downtime while HP’s world class support organization and partner network ensures that you can quickly recover in the case of a problem.
