REFURBISHED HP STORAGEWORKS 4000_6000_8000 ENTERPRISE VIRTUAL ARRAYS


The HP StorageWorks 4000/6000/8000 Enterprise Virtual Arrays continue to offer customers in the mid-range to enterprise market place; leading high performance, high capacity and high availability "virtual" array storage solutions. Not only do these solutions reduce IT costs and complexity, they save time, space and costs as compared to traditionally architected storage, and they are supported by a powerfully simple suite of management software making it easy for users to achieve highest level of productivity.

Designed for the data center where there is a critical need for improved storage utilization and scalability, the EVA’s meet application specific demands for consistent high transaction I/O for the customer, and provide easy capacity expansion, instantaneous replication, and simplified storage administration. With affordable, easy to deploy EVA4000 Starter Kits for small SAN use, XCS v6.1 software, 4Gb Host Bus Adapters and switches support; the EVA4000, 6000, and 8000 provide a comprehensive solution, designed to simplify storage management and maximize performance. HP also brings integrated iSCSI connectivity to the EVA and Remote Replication, SAN over WAN with EVA Continuous Access EVA. Using the EVA Command View software to manage the iSCSI connectivity to the array offers a powerful solution providing iSCSI connectivity to an EVA utilizing the EVA’s existing FC infrastructure. And now EVA File Services provide easy cost effective storage consolidation with the introduction of block and file support for EVA customers.

HP StorageWorks delivers easy-to-install, easy-to-manage, and easy-to-support proven server/storage/service solutions that help customers lower their TCO and minimize the complexity of their storage environment.

  • XCS V6.1 for 2 and 4Gb EVA4000, EVA6000 and EVA8000
  • Improved reliability and availability
  • Operator Control Panel (OCP) security

    Features & Benefits

  • Reduce costs and complexity : The EVA4000/6000/8000 combined with HP StorageWorks Command View EVA software offers simplicity, security and automation of any SAN and lowers TCO. The EVA provides online LUN growth, easy dynamic capacity expansion, instantaneous data replication and optimized performance.
  • Robust, affordable small SAN solution: The EVA4000 Starter Kit includes EVA hardware and software, 8-146GB or 300GB10k rpm FC disks, and 4TBs licensing; for easy installation, use and scale. The EVA 4000 SAN Starter Kit includes all of the above from the Starter Kit, plus 1 HP 4/8 Base SAN Switch, 4 HP FC2142 4Gb PCI-e HBA, and the EZpilot software.
  • Adapts real time: Controllers with 2/4Gb connectivity double the cache mirroring ports (from early EVAs) for improved I/O performance. Outstanding virtualization ensures the disks in the array are used efficiently, providing automated load leveling which eliminates stranded capacity, keeping drives busier, providing superior performance.
  • Online expansion, tiered storage and online XCS upgrades: Add physical disks online quickly to increase capacity without restrictions typically associated with capacity expansion on traditional arrays. Mix High Performance and FATA drives on the same enclosure for maximum efficiency/ cost savings. Upgrade XCS online for the latest features, functionality/availability enhancements.
  • Value: Investment protection: State-of-the-art virtualization improves performance, disk usage, and allows for easy dynamic expansion. Disks are added to groups and the EVA automatically distributes the data. The EVA also offers support for integrated iSCSI connectivity, IP Distance Gateway for Continuous Access EVA SAN over WAN and EVA File Services.
  • Virtually instantaneous Snapclone and capacity-free Snapshot (Vsnap) and Delta Resync (Mirrorclone): Allows immediate use of the clone copy, saving significant time. And provides a very efficient, low cost local data replication option. Saves disk space and improves disk efficiency and utilization.
  • High capacity : Supports up to 84TB today in a single cabinet and up to 120TB with an expansion cabinet of versatile storage capacity, with any combination of high performance Fibre Channel and/or low cost (500GB) FATA drives while supporting all Vraid types. Can quickly and easily add physical disks online.
  • Support: Ensures effectiveness of SAN deployment in multiple environments and delivers the proactive services required to help maintain a stable, highly available HP StorageWorks EVA solution.
  • Comprehensive SAN Management, Service and Support Tools and Customer Self Repair: Includes SAN management tools to improve service levels and meet customer flexibility requirements. HP Systems Insight Manager server-storage management application, HP Instant Support Enterprise Edition (ISEE) proactive remote monitoring for high availability, Customer Self Repair for improved EVA customer flexibility.
