Sharing storage means that you maximizeinvestments in additional capacity while enabling easier growth andsmaller backup windows. Extra capacity will be accessible acrossmultiple servers rather than isolated in a single server, which means it isavailable to the application that needs it. HP All-in-One StorageSystems utilize the Microsoft iSCSI Software Target to provide blockbasedaccess to network storage.Built on top of Windows Storage Server 2003 R2, these solutions aretuned to deliver performance improvement over standard Windows fileservers while improving capacity utilization by reducing duplicate fileswithin shared volumes. Supports both CIFS and NFS client access. Inaddition, this solution speeds up end-user search with full-text indexingof all documents.Data protection features include the ability to implement scheduled orad-hoc disk-based snapshots of data for fast and easy roll-back.Integrated data protection software allows for easy backup to disk, tape,or other removable media for archival and offsite. Microsoft DFS-Replication functionality allows data to be replicated on a scheduledbasis to another system for enhanced disaster recovery. Snapshots andBackups for Exchange and SQL Server are done in an applicationaware context so that the data is preserved in a consistent state for theapplication.HP All-in-One Storage Systems are managed through the intuitive Allin-OneStorage Manager. This single interface radically simplifies thegrowth, management, and protection of data. Designed for ITgeneralists with no storage expertise, these systems can be setup andactively serving files in less than 30 minutes.The All-in-One Storage Manager uses terms and functions that arefamiliar to application administrators, hiding the complexities typicallyassociated with storage. Includes easy iSCSI storage management for32-bit and 64-bit Windows Server 2003 application servers. Datamigration and optimization wizards for Microsoft Exchange 2003/2007and SQL Server 2000/2005.Building on HP's leadership in Microsoft solutions, the HP All-in-OneStorage System includes tools to easily migrate and manage data whileimplementing best practice settings for storage implementation. Forexample, iSCSI storage for a Microsoft Exchange Storage Group can besetup and migrated in less than 10 clicks.HP All-in-One Storage Systems utilize the industry standard iSCSIinterface which means it can be installed on existing TCP/IP networkswith no added infrastructure (However, using a separate subnet fornetworked storage traffic is recommended.). Standard hardware anddrive enclosures ensure easy support and future growth. The All-in-OneStorage Manager quickly walks administrators through all setup andmanagement tasks.DA - 12557 Worldwide QuickSpecs — Version 7 — 5/14/2007 Page 2
