2 Configuring SRM and the HP EVA disk array This chapter summarizes the steps to set up SRM and the HP EVA disk array for use with HP EVA Virtualization Adapter. For detailed information on these steps, see the documents listed in Related documentation. The following steps need to be completed: 1. Set up EVA SAN environment. 2. Install HP EVA Virtualization Adapter. 3. Pair SRM sites (Protected/Recovery). 4. Configure SRM to communicate with Command View EVA. 5. Create Protection Group(s). 6. Create Recovery Plan(s). Setting up the HP EVA SAN environment Setting up the EVA SAN environment involves the following steps: • Set up zones • Install licenses for HP StorageWorks Continuous Access EVA and HP StorageWorks Business Copy EVA • Create vdisks for datastores • Add vdisks to data replication groups • Create datastores Adding an ESX server After zoning, use HP Command View EVA to add an ESX server to the hosts that are available to the local HP EVA disk array. You can assign an alias (host name) to HBA ports (initiator IDs) that can be seen by the HP EVA disk array and will be used for LUN presentation. For more information on these tasks, see the HP StorageWorks Command View EVA user guide. Installing licenses HP StorageWorks Continuous Access EVA (needed to create replication pairs and perform failover between data centers) and HP StorageWorks Business Copy EVA (needed to create snapshots during recovery plan testing) need to be on the HP EVA disk arrays at the protected site and recovery site. For more information on HP StorageWorks Continuous Access EVA and HP StorageWorks Business Copy EVA, see the documents in Related documentation. EVA Virtualization Adapter administrator guide 13

2 Configuring SRM and the HP EVA disk
array
This chapter summarizes the steps to set up SRM and the HP EVA disk array for use with HP EVA
Virtualization Adapter. For detailed information on these steps, see the documents listed in
Related
documentation
.
The following steps need to be completed:
1.
Set up EVA SAN environment.
2.
Install HP EVA Virtualization Adapter.
3.
Pair SRM sites (Protected/Recovery).
4.
Configure SRM to communicate with Command View EVA.
5.
Create Protection Group(s).
6.
Create Recovery Plan(s).
Setting up the HP EVA SAN environment
Setting up the EVA SAN environment involves the following steps:
•
Set up zones
•
Install licenses for HP StorageWorks Continuous Access EVA and HP StorageWorks Business Copy
EVA
•
Create vdisks for datastores
•
Add vdisks to data replication groups
•
Create datastores
Adding an ESX server
After zoning, use HP Command View EVA to add an ESX server to the hosts that are available to the
local HP EVA disk array. You can assign an alias (host name) to HBA ports (initiator IDs) that can be
seen by the HP EVA disk array and will be used for LUN presentation.
For more information on these tasks, see the
HP StorageWorks Command View EVA user guide
.
Installing licenses
HP StorageWorks Continuous Access EVA (needed to create replication pairs and perform failover
between data centers) and HP StorageWorks Business Copy EVA (needed to create snapshots during
recovery plan testing) need to be on the HP EVA disk arrays at the protected site and recovery site.
For more information on HP StorageWorks Continuous Access EVA and HP StorageWorks Business
Copy EVA, see the documents in
Related documentation
