you can add connections without the additional processor overhead or latency associated with server virtualization. Flex-10 also reduces infrastructure costs by eliminating the need for additional server mezzanine cards and managed switches. Virtual Connect FlexFabric HP Virtual Connect FlexFabric modules and FlexFabric adapters extend Flex-10 technology to include data and storage traffic within each 10Gb server connection. With Virtual Connect FlexFabric, you can allocate LAN and SAN fabrics of a single 10GbE data stream into four separate connections (FlexNIC and FlexHBA). You can adjust the bandwidth and routing information of each of those connections for all data classes. FlexFabric adapters provide either offloaded iSCSI or Fiber Channel over Ethernet (FCoE) functionality for one of the four connections per port. Fully offloaded iSCSI functionality represents an advance over the accelerated iSCSI available on multifunction network adapters. HP Matrix Operating Environment HP Matrix Operating Environment (OE), previously called HP Insight Dynamics, is the ideal tool for capacity planning, configuration management, infrastructure orchestration, and recovery management. Matrix OE can help you consolidate and dynamically provision the infrastructure, perform energy-aware capacity planning, and achieve high availability where it was not cost effective before. Matrix OE builds on Insight Control and it seamlessly plugs into HP Systems Insight Manager. Matrix OE: Simplifies daily operations and manage data center capacity and power proactively. Provisions the infrastructure in minutes with best-practice templates Optimizes the infrastructure across physical and virtual resources Protects continuity of services with a complete range of availability and recovery solutions Extends data center life with energy-aware capacity planning The software also includes the automated provisioning, optimization, and recovery management capabilities for HP BladeSystem Matrix, a fully integrated converged infrastructure platform for delivering shared services. Matrix OE extends server automation integration for the self-service portal and template designer to include applications. In addition, you can use cost-effective iSCSI storage and storage tagging. 12
