HP P10000 3PAR Storage System

HP 3PAR Thin Provisioning Software improves storage system efficiency and optimizes capacity utilization system-wide. It does this by addressing the problem of capacity over-allocation through eliminating the need to dedicate storage capacity on a per-application basis. Since its introduction, HP 3PAR Thin Provisioning Software has given HP 3PAR Utility Storage clients the ability to meet Green IT targets and reduce capacity purchases. Thin Provisioning makes this possible by cutting SAN costs, floor space requirements, and energy expenses by up to 75% and decreasing administration time by up to 90%. It does this by allowing organizations to purchase only the disk capacity they actually need, only as they actually need it through eliminating the need for up-front capacity allocation and dedicating resources to individual applications. This prevents clients from paying to power, house, and cool disks that they may not need for months or years to come, or may never actually need.

To realize the ultimate efficiency and cost-saving benefits of starting thin or getting thin, storage also needs to stay thin. An industry first, HP 3PAR Thin Persistence Software ensures that thin volumes on the array stay as lean and efficient as possible. Thin Persistence Software accomplishes this by using the HP 3PAR Thin Engine with the system's built-in zero-detect capability to reclaim unused space associated with deleted data. With Thin Persistence, space reclamation on HP 3PAR arrays takes place simply, quickly, and without disruption to production workloads.

Thin Copy Reclamation is an HP 3PAR InForm Operating System Software feature that performs a similar function to HP 3PAR Thin Persistence Software, but uses the HP 3PAR Thin Engine to reclaim unused space from thin copies (virtual copy snapshots and remote copies) rather than thin volumes.

On average, HP 3PAR Utility Storage clients already purchase 60% less capacity than with traditional storage arrays. With HP 3PAR Thin Persistence and Thin Copy Reclamation, customers can improve this average capacity savings by another 10% for a total savings of up to 70%. Volumes and snapshots can now stay thin to help sustain Green IT targets, defer the cost of purchasing raw capacity to handle new data growth, and keep costs down without the need to purchase special host-based software or retaining professional services.

The HP Management Pack for Systems Center Operations Manager provides seamless integration with Microsoft Systems Center Operations Manager and now System Center Essentials by integrating predefined discovery and state monitoring policies, event processing rules and tasks, and diagram and topology views for the storage system.
