HP LUN Configuration and Security Manager HP LUN Configuration and Security Manager provides additional LUN configuration and security options. You can add and delete paths, create custom-sized volumes, and configure foolproof LUN security that provides controlled, secure access to data stored on the disk arrays-preventing unauthorized servers from accessing your data. It also configures the arrays to meet changing storage requirements and enables users to share a single Fibre Channel array among multiple servers. HP LUN Configuration and Security Manager allows you to: • Create, define, and configure LUNs on the disk arrays • Consolidate LUNs (combine up to 36 LUNs) • Create small size LUNs to accommodate data locked into cache • Establish security at the LUN level so that you can enable multiple server connectivity to the disk arrays • Hide LUNs assigned to one server from other servers during IOSCAN operations • Configure LUSE and create custom volume sizes HP Cache LUN Cache LUN lets you reserve areas of memory cache to store frequently accessed information. It improves file access times and enables faster data transfers. Assigning information to on-board cache speeds up access to your data because cache-resident data is available at host data transfer speeds for both read and write operations. Cache LUN redirects I/O requests from the disk drives to data locked in the SVS200 cache. It's transparent, simple to implement, and it delivers immediate performance gains. Cache memory for Cache LUN can be set as low as one logical block or 512 MB. As your needs grow, you can increase cache volumes in increments of one logical block to a maximum of 1,024 cached volumes. HP StorageWorks 200 Storage Virtualization System owner's guide 45
