Program products for mainframe The following tables list and describe the XP Remote Web Console-based products and the host- and server-based products for use with mainframe systems. Table 2 XP Remote Web Console-based software for mainframe users Name Description XP Thin Provisioning Provides virtual storage capacity to simplify storage addition and administration, eliminate application service interruptions, and reduce costs. HP StorageWorks XP Continu- Enables the user to perform remote copy operations between storage systems ous Access Synchronous for in different locations. Provides synchronous and asynchronous copy modes for Mainframe mainframe data. HP StorageWorks XP Business Copy for Mainframe Allows the user to create internal copies of volumes for purposes such as application testing and offline backup. Can be used in conjunction with Continuous Access Synchronous for Mainframe to maintain multiple copies of data at primary and secondary sites. FlashCopy Mirroring Provides compatibility with the IBM FlashCopy mainframe host software function, which performs server-based data replication for mainframe data. HP StorageWorks XP Continuous Access Journal for Mainframe Provides a RAID storage-based hardware solution for disaster recovery which enables fast and accurate system recovery, particularly for large amounts of data which span multiple volumes. Using Continuous Access Journal for Mainframe, you can configure and manage highly reliable data replication systems using journal volumes to reduce chances of suspension of copy operations. Compatible XRC Provides compatibility with the IBM Extended Remote Copy (XRC) mainframe host software function, which performs server-based asynchronous remote copy operations for mainframe LVIs. XP External Storage Realizes the virtualization of the storage system. Users can connect other storage systems to the disk array and access the data on the external storage system over virtual devices on the disk array. Functions such as Continuous Access Synchronous for Mainframe and Cache Residency can be performed on the external data. XP Disk/Cache Partition Provides storage logical partition and cache logical partition: • Storage logical partition allows you to divide the available storage among various users to reduce conflicts over usage. • Cache logical partition allows you to divide the cache into multiple virtual cache memories to reduce I/O contention. XP Virtual LVI/LUN (VLL) XP Cache Residency Manager Compatible PAV Enables users to convert single volumes (LVIs or LUs) into multiple smaller volumes to improve data access performance. Allows users to lock and unlock data into cache in real time to optimize access to your most frequently accessed data. Enables the mainframe host to issue multiple I/O requests in parallel to single LDEVs. Provides compatibility with the IBM Workload Manager (WLM) host software function and supports both static and dynamic PAV functionality. Volume Security Allows users to restrict host access to data Mainframe users can restrict host access to LVIs based on node IDs and logical partition (LPAR) numbers.

Program products for mainframe
The following tables list and describe the XP Remote Web Console-based products and the host- and
server-based products for use with mainframe systems.
Table 2 XP Remote Web Console-based software for mainframe users
Description
Name
Provides virtual storage capacity to simplify storage addition and administration,
eliminate application service interruptions, and reduce costs.
XP Thin Provisioning
Enables the user to perform remote copy operations between storage systems
in different locations. Provides synchronous and asynchronous copy modes for
mainframe data.
HP StorageWorks XP Continu-
ous Access Synchronous for
Mainframe
Allows the user to create internal copies of volumes for purposes such as ap-
plication testing and offline backup. Can be used in conjunction with Continuous
Access Synchronous for Mainframe to maintain multiple copies of data at
primary and secondary sites.
HP StorageWorks XP Busi-
ness Copy for Mainframe
Provides compatibility with the IBM FlashCopy mainframe host software function,
which performs server-based data replication for mainframe data.
FlashCopy Mirroring
Provides a RAID storage-based hardware solution for disaster recovery which
enables fast and accurate system recovery, particularly for large amounts of
data which span multiple volumes. Using Continuous Access Journal for Main-
frame, you can configure and manage highly reliable data replication systems
using journal volumes to reduce chances of suspension of copy operations.
HP StorageWorks XP Continu-
ous Access Journal for Main-
frame
Provides compatibility with the IBM Extended Remote Copy (XRC) mainframe
host software function, which performs server-based asynchronous remote copy
operations for mainframe LVIs.
Compatible XRC
Realizes the virtualization of the storage system. Users can connect other storage
systems to the disk array and access the data on the external storage system
over virtual devices on the disk array. Functions such as Continuous Access
Synchronous for Mainframe and Cache Residency can be performed on the
external data.
XP External Storage
Provides storage logical partition and cache logical partition:
•
Storage logical partition allows you to divide the available storage among
various users to reduce conflicts over usage.
•
Cache logical partition allows you to divide the cache into multiple virtual
cache memories to reduce I/O contention.
XP Disk/Cache Partition
Enables users to convert single volumes (LVIs or LUs) into multiple smaller volumes
to improve data access performance.
XP Virtual LVI/LUN (VLL)
Allows users to lock and unlock data into cache in real time to optimize access
to your most frequently accessed data.
XP Cache Residency Man-
ager
Enables the mainframe host to issue multiple I/O requests in parallel to single
LDEVs. Provides compatibility with the IBM Workload Manager (WLM) host
software function and supports both static and dynamic PAV functionality.
Compatible PAV
Allows users to restrict host access to data Mainframe users can restrict host
access to LVIs based on node IDs and logical partition (LPAR) numbers.
