About HP All-in-One Storage: Imagine having a single integrated solution that could provide shared storage for application servers (iSCSI Target), enhanced file serving for end-user clients (NAS), backup target services for network data, and data protection software to keep all of your data safe and secure; these are the key functions of HP All-in-One Storage and together, they allow businesses to lower costs, increase efficiencies, and respond to rapid data growth. HP StorageWorks All-in-One Storage Systems are radically simple, integrated, and affordable network storage solutions that enable small and mid-size companies to easily manage, grow, and protect their data without requiring them to become storage experts. These systems are designed to be deployed and managed by IT generalists with no storage expertise and deliver everything you need to lower the cost and complexity of rapidly growing data storage environments.

The easy-to-use, All-in-One Storage Manager (ASM) interface reduces the time, expense, and expertise required to keep up with rapidly growing applications like Microsoft Exchange. Busy IT Managers do not have time to learn complex storage technologies; ASM eliminates this barrier by handling all underlying storage tasks and presenting network storage in application-centric terms, giving administrators newfound levels of control. Data migration tools for Exchange 2003/2007 and SQL Server 2000/2005 include 'best practice' recommendations which allow any IT generalist to look like a storage expert. Tools for hosting 'user defined' applications enable flexible deployment in many different environments.

ASM provides easy setup of shared folders, backup target areas, and iSCSI Target storage for hosts running Windows Server, Linux, VMWare ESX, or any other standards-compliant iSCSI initiator. Administrators can quickly and easily setup or expand data areas, migrate data from capacity constrained servers, manage disk based backup storage areas, implement disk and tape backup policies, and more.

Now you can have a simple, affordable, and reliable network storage solution that provides many of the management, consolidation, and data protection features typically reserved for higher-priced and more complex storage products.

About the AiO400: This 1U 4-drive entry-level rackable solution provides shared storage expansion for application servers (iSCSI Target), enhanced file serving for end-user clients (NAS), and comprehensive data protection features. The AiO400 is an excellent solution for customers needing less than 1TB total raw capacity without the performance requirements of SAS.

NOTE: Updates to the HP All-in-One Storage Manager (ASM) are posted to support links available at http://www.hp.com/go/AiOStorage. Some of the management features discussed in this document may require the installation of software updates depending on the version of ASM installed on your system. Be sure to check for updates to make sure you are using the latest version of the software. Critical updates for the Windows Storage Server 2003 R2 operating system can be implemented using standard Windows Update functionality but you should disable any auto-restart options to avoid complications with iSCSI connections. For other software components you should only update components as part of an All-in-One Storage System update. Do not separately download or install individual updates for Data Protector Express as this may adversely affect the management integration of these components.

A single storage solution that can respond to a wide variety of business needs. HP All-in-One Storage Systems offer an incredible degree of utility and flexibility by providing shared storage for multiple application servers, file serving for end-user clients, disk based backup capabilities, and data protection for both file and application data via snapshots and backup software.

Managed through a single interface, HP All-in-One Storage provides shared application storage (iSCSI Target), file serving (NAS), and data protection below the cost of separate products and without the need to change your infrastructure. NOTE: A dedicated segment is recommended for your iSCSI traffic and can be implemented using standard Ethernet hardware you probably already have.

HP All-in-One Storage Systems include tools to easily migrate and manage data using best practice settings. For example, iSCSI storage for a Microsoft Exchange Storage Group can be expertly setup and migrated in less than 10 mouse clicks, saving you time and reducing the risk to your business.

Sharing storage between servers is more efficient and costs less to manage over time when compared against adding additional drives to individual servers. Sharing storage means that you maximize investments in additional capacity while enabling easier growth and shorter backup windows. HP All-in-One Storage Systems utilize the Microsoft iSCSI Software Target to provide block-based access to network storage.

Provides an easy mechanism to manage disk based snapshots for easy rollback, integrated data protection software for offsite and archive, hot plug disk drives (RAID), and hardware redundancy. Data can also be replicated to another system for enhanced disaster recovery. Utilize your All-in-One Storage pool as a disk based backup target for other systems in your environment and manage Data Protector Express virtual library objects direct from the All-in-One Storage Manager.

This entry-level rackable solution provides shared storage expansion for application servers (iSCSI SAN), enhanced file serving for end-user clients (NAS), and comprehensive data protection features. The AiO400 is an excellent solution for customers needing less than 1TB total raw capacity without the performance requirements of SAS.

• Sizing Guidelines: For Exchange environments, the AiO400 can be used for smaller Storage Groups with less than 100 mailboxes when using the Exchange ESRP implementation guidelines. Out of the box implementations should only use the AiO400 for very few users or archival Storage Groups. While it is certified for VMWare ESX iSCSI connectivity, the AiO400 is not recommended in VMFS environments due highly random read/write performance characteristics of VMFS.

This tower/rack solution provides shared storage expansion for application servers (iSCSI SAN), enhanced file serving for end-user clients (NAS), and comprehensive data protection features. The AiO600 is an excellent solution for customers looking for increased capacity, scalability, and hardware redundancy. The AiO600 is available in both SATA and Serial Attached SCSI (SAS) configurations.

• Sizing Guidelines: For Exchange environments, AiO600 SATA configurations are appropriate for storage groups with less than 500 mailboxes while AiO600 SAS configurations support up to 1,000 mailboxes when using the Exchange ESRP implementation guidelines. Out of the box implementations for the AiO600 will support approx 25% of these numbers. The AiO600 is certified with VMWare ESX for iSCSI connectivity; due to the highly random read/write performance characteristics of VMFS we recommend SAS HDDs and the AiO1200 SAS as the best performance option for use with VMWare ESX and VMFS.

This high capacity all-in-one solution provides shared storage expansion for application servers (iSCSI SAN), enhanced file serving for end-user clients (NAS), and comprehensive data protection features. The AiO1200 is an excellent solution for customers looking for increased performance and capacity from 12 internal drives and a high performance RAID controller. The AiO1200 is available in both SATA and Serial Attached SCSI (SAS) configurations.

• Sizing Guidelines: For Exchange environments, AiO1200 SATA configurations are appropriate for storage groups with less than 500 mailboxes while AiO1200 SAS configurations support up to 1,500 mailboxes when using the Exchange ESRP implementation guidelines. Out of the box implementations for the AiO1200 will support approx 25% of these numbers. The AiO1200 is certified with VMWare ESX for iSCSI connectivity; due to the highly random read/write performance characteristics of VMFS we recommend SAS HDDs for use with VMWare ESX and VMFS.

This half-height all-in-one storage blade solution was designed for HP c-class BladeSystem environments and provides shared storage expansion for blade servers (iSCSI SAN), enhanced file serving for end-user clients (NAS), and comprehensive data protection features. The AiO SB600c is an excellent solution for customers looking at c-3000 or c-7000 BladeSystem deployments. The AiO SB600c is available a SAS configuration.

• Sizing Guidelines: For Exchange environments, AiO SB600c SAS configurations are appropriate for storage groups with less than 500 mailboxes. The AiO SB600c is certified with VMWare ESX for iSCSI connectivity.
