HP StorageWorks Flex Copy XP HP Flex Copy XP enables bidirectional, server-independent data transfer between the HP XP12000 and these HP Disk Array storage systems: XP48/128/256/512/1024, MSA1000, MSA1500, EVA 3000, EVA 4000, EVA 5000 EVA 6000, EVA 8000. Data can be transferred locally within a single data center or over metropolitan distances in a distributed storage network, without consuming server or LAN performance resources. This capability allows for more efficient, cost-effective leverage of business-critical data in a wide range of storage solutions, resulting in enhanced IT effectiveness and better return-on-investment in storage infrastructures. These storage solutions include nearline/array-based storage backup, data distribution and concentration, and hierarchical storage management. Multipathing/high availability software HP StorageWorks Secure Path HP Secure Path is a family of high availability multipathing software products providing continuous data access from the disk array to host servers running Windows Server 2003, Windows 2000, Windows NT, Linux, Sun Solaris, Novell NetWare, IBM AIX, and HP-UX. Redundant hardware, advanced RAID technology and Secure Path's automated failover capability enhance fault tolerance and availability. Secure Path effectively eliminates controllers, disk drives, interconnect hardware and host bus adapters as single points of failure. Secure Path: • Ensures increased business efficiency by maintaining high availability of business-critical data and by simplifying the task of path management • Monitors path status, and in the case of a path failure, automatically re-routes data to an alternate path • Allows easy path management from a single application with graphical displays and task automation 54 Software
