3 What’s new for HP Technology Forum?
Increased flexibility New! 12 port model of the HP StorageWorks SN6000 FC Switch Enhanced functionality Updated Simple SAN Connection Manager (SSCM) software with VCEM 6.1 integration Expanded capability: New! Enterprise Fabric Management Suite (EFMS) software option MPX200 online and FC-iSCSI, iSCS-iSCSI data migration Exceptional value: New! P2000 G3 FC MSA DC SMB SAN Starter Kit HP Technology Forum was held in June of 2010, and HP introduced a variety of new products based on QLogic technology. Let’s take a look at some of these. HP increased the flexibility of it’s offerings by introducing the new 12-port model of the H-series SN6000 stackable fibre channel switch. HP enhance the functionality for customers by updating Simple SAN Connection Manager, or SSCM, to integrate with Virtual Connect Enterprise Manager and provide customers with virtual server environment more visibility and control of their storage network. HP expanded the capability for customers by introducing Enterprise Fabric Management Suite software to allow customers with H-series SANs more granular control of their storage network. HP also update the capability of the MPX200 multi-protocol router by adding support for XP disk arrays and adding functionality for both on-line and off-line data migration. And from a value perspective, HP set a new bar for the industry with the introduction of the P2000 G3 SMB SAN Starter Kit. This new single sku offering provides customers with a complete SAN solution at 30% off the standard pricing of the individual components. HP has made scalable SAN more affordable now than ever! Let’s take a look in more detail as some of these new offerings. July 2010

4 HP StorageWorks SN6000 Stackable 8Gb 12-port Single Power Fibre Channel Switch
First let’s look at the HP StorageWorks SN port fibre channel switch, which is the newest member of the H-series SN6000 fibre channel switch family.

5 HP StorageWorks H-series Switches
500+ port with multi-stack HP StorageWorks H-series Switches SN port stack Features included in H-series switch price: Simple SAN Connection Manager – simple single pane of glass mgmt Stacking Architecture – pay as you grow Transparent Router – providing interoperability across fabrics I/O StreamGuard – protection against data interruptions Adaptive Trunking – maximizing performance New 12-port Configuration for SN6000! 8 device ports, 4 stacking (ISL) ports Single Power Supply 4 port license upgrades SN port stack Single power Dual power SN port stack $ SN port stack Simple SAN Connection Manager The new 12-port model of the SN6000 has 8 device ports activated and as with all SN6000 switches, has 4 dedicated stacking, or inter switch link, ports for connecting switches together. The device ports are 8Gbps fibre channel and are backward compatible with 2 and 4 Gb fibre channel. The stacking ports are 10Gbps fibre channel and can be upgraded to 20Gbps with a software license if higher performance is required. The 12-port SN6000 comes in a single supply configuration and additional device ports can be activated in 4-port increments via a software license. This now rounds out the H-series portfolio so customers can scale from 8 to more than 500 ports in a single fabric. With the 8/20q non-stackable offering on the low end for smaller SANs and cost-sensitive customers, and the SN6000 family that is available is 8 or 20 port base models, HP can deliver a scalable SAN solution for the SMB customer to the enterprise customer. All H-series switches come with Simple SAN Connection Manager software included. This feature rich software provides customers with the ability to converge the management of their entire SAN from end to end. This single application can manage each element in the SAN: the HBAs, switches and storage. With storage provisioning for the HP MSA or EVA array families, SSCM provides a single pane of glass for customers to manage their entire storage network. The SN6000 products in the H-series family include the stacking architecture to interconnect switches as storage network needs grow. This provides completely non-disruptive scalability from 8 ports to 120 ports in a single stack of 6 SN6000 switches. For customers who need even more scalability, 5 stacks can be connected together to create a fabric of more than 500 available device ports. The stacking architecture is much more efficient and economical than using device ports for inter switch connections and provides customers with seamless scalability. Transparent Router is a feature exclusive to HP , that uses NPIV technology to allow H-series SANs to seamlessly connect to B or C-series SANs. I/O StreamGuard is a feature that is ideal for applications like video editing and data backup where sequential data flow must not get interrupted. Finally, a key feature to the H-series portfolio is Adaptive Trunking. This allows data flow between switches to be optimized without the need for expensive ISL Trunking Licenses. This saves HP customers thousands of dollars per switch compares to competitor offerings that require these trunking licenses for optimal performance.

HP StorageWorks Simple SAN Connection Manager 3.2 and Virtual Connect Enterprise Manager 6.1 Enhanced Single-Pane-Of-Glass Storage Network Management And speaking of SAN management, let’s explore the latest release of Simple SAN Connection Manager and the integration of this software with HP’s Virtual Connect Enterprise Manager software.

13 New! Converged Management – HP Virtual Connect, HP StorageWorks H-series SAN
HP Virtual Connect Enterprise Manager (VCEM) HP BladeSystem C7000 HP SN6000 Switch HP Virtual Connect HP StorageWorks Simple SAN Connection Manager (SSCM) Trunking LTU not required Trunking included in switch price Single Application, instead of three, for managing Adapters, Switches and Storage For customers who need virtualized server environments, the HP BladeSystem is the ideal choice. And with HP Virtual Connect, customers can greatly simplify how the virtual servers are interconnected to the LAN and SAN environments outside the server enclosure. Many customers think that Virtual Connect is expensive. Well VC is not expensive when looking at the Total Cost of Ownership (TCO) of the entire solution. And with HP StorageWorks Simple SAN Connection Manager and H-series switches, HP simplifies SAN deployment and management and does so with no additional expensive trunking licenses required. The H-series switches bring a huge new benefit by optimizing SAN performance with no additional expense and by converging the day to day management of the HBA’s, SAN and storage, to one screen from three with HP StorageWorks Simple SAN Connection Manager. By leveraging the API for Virtual Connect Enterprise Manager (VCEM) and integrating this with SSCM, HP has enhanced the end-to-end management of a virtualized server environment to include information about the blade chassis, virtual connections and more. Let’s take a look. HP EVA 6400/8400 HP P2000/MSA July 2010 13
