HP MSA P2000 G3 Modular Smart Array Systems

Overview

HP MSA P2000 G3 Modular Smart Array Systems
Hewlett Packard's MSA P2000 Family of storage arrays features P2000 G3 arrays with the latest 8 Gb Fibre Channel, 6 Gb SAS,
10GbE iSCSI connected models, and an iSCSI model with four 1 Gb iSCSI ports per controller. The arrays are designed for entrylevel customers and feature the latest in functionality and host-connect technology while offering excellent price/performance.
They are ideal for companies with small budgets or limited IT expertise, and also larger companies with departmental or remote
requirements. Each solution is designed to be easy to deploy, to be secure, along with low management costs, while driving rapid
return on investment through efficient storage consolidation.
The MSA P2000 G3 arrays are 2U storage area network (SAN) or direct connect solutions (OS and protocol dependent) offering a
choice of five controllers - two FC, one SAS, one 10GbE iSCSI and the newest model features a four port 1 Gb iSCSI. The first Fibre
Channel controller is a high-performance, 8 Gb dual port model. The second offering is a unique dual-purpose Combo controller
with two 8 Gb Fibre Channel ports with the addition of two 1GbE iSCSI ports. The third controller choice is 6Gb SAS with four ports
per controller. There is also the addition of a two port 10 Gb iSCSI, while the latest controller introduction features four 1 Gb iSCSI
ports per controller. Whatever the situation calls for, the P2000 G3 line-up has the right solution.
The dual-protocol MSA P2000 G3 MSA FC/iSCSI Combo Controller gives exceptional flexibility. The 8 Gb FC ports support a full FC
SAN while the two 1GbE iSCSI ports can serve two purposes. With this combination you can economically share the array storage
resource with a smaller department accessing it over iSCSI or enable the new optional Remote Snap functionality over iSCSI
protocol (also available over FC).
The MSA P2000 G3 SAS is the follow-on product to the MSA2000sa G2, adding the latest 6 Gb SAS technology to the four host
ports per controller. The P2000 G3 SAS array is designed for directly attaching up to four dual-path or eight single path rack
servers. SAS array support for BladeSystems utilizes the HP 6 Gb SAS BL Switch.
The MSA P2000 G3 10GbE iSCSI brings the very latest in high-performance host connection with technology generally found only
in higher priced arrays. The bandwidth it provides in conjunction with server consolidation is highly advantageous in shared
storage configurations. Array connection to 10GbE switches that are in turn connected to 1GbE NICs is commonplace. Directly
attached server support requires the server units to have 10GbE NICs.
Rounding out the controller choices is the MSA P2000 G3 iSCSI controller featuring four 1Gb iSCSI Ethernet ports, double the
number of the G2 model. This allows an array that keeps the price of the components, particularly the interconnection, low while
markedly increasing the performance capabilities.
All MSA P2000 G3 models can be equipped with single or dual controllers, feature the same scalability, and offer 6 Gb SAS backend transmission speed to drives and JBODs. Significant data protection advances are delivered by the all P2000 G3 arrays. All G3
units come STANDARD with sixty-four snapshot capability at no extra cost and there is an option for the G3 series of five hundred
and twelve snapshots. Volume Copy (clone) also comes standard. In a further move to protect the user's data, optional Remote
Snap (replication) capability is offered on the FC, FC/iSCSI, and both iSCSI versions.
All MSA P2000 G3 models support hot plug replacement of redundant controllers, fans, power supplies, and I/O modules. Hot add
of expansion enclosures is also supported.
The controller-less MSA P2000 chassis is offered in two models - one comes standard with twelve Large Form Factor (LFF) 3.5inch drive bays, the other can accommodate twenty-four Small Form Factor (SFF) 2.5-inch drives. Both are able to simultaneously
support enterprise-class SAS drives, SAS Midline, and archival-class SATA Midline drives. Either chassis can have one or two
matching P2000 G3 controllers (same protocol) and are available with AC or DC power Supplies.

HP MSA P2000 G3 Modular Smart Array Systems

Overview
The HP modular approach to entry level SAN solutions enables incremental customer purchases, allowing the array to grow as
needs grow, thus allowing a maximum return on investment. Choose a single controller unit for low initial cost with the ability to
upgrade later; or decide on a model with dual controllers for the most demanding entry-level situations. There are no unexpected
additional charges, licenses or fees as you add enclosures or hosts and users.
Capacity can easily be added as the need develops by attaching additional drive enclosures. Maximum capacity ranges with LFF
drives up to 57.6 TB SAS, 576 TB SAS Midline or 192 TB SATA Midline with the addition of the maximum number of drive
enclosures. Configurations utilizing the SFF drive chassis and the maximum number of drive enclosures can grow to 178 TB of SAS,
149 TB of SAS Midline or 74.5 TB SATA Midline with a total of 96 LFF or 149 SFF drives. The P2000 G3 Arrays do not support SSDs.

Ease of management featuring browser-based out-of-band access. This allows a department or small company to
effectively handle growing storage requirements, with the aid of an intuitive GUI to administer the unit with a minimum of
complexity. Ideal for local or remote installations.
All G3 models come standard with 64 controller-based snapshots and clone capability. The G3 arrays also support an
optional 512 snaps.
Choose either a low-cost single controller array or start with a configured dual controller array model to fit the budget,
high availability, and performance needs.
All models feature a wide variety of drives: enterprise-class SAS, SAS Midline, and archival-class SATA Midline in either
P2000 LFF 3.5-inch or HP Storage SFF 2.5-inch drives.
P2000 G3 models can have a maximum number of P2000 LFF drive enclosures (7), a maximum number of D2700 SFF
enclosures (5), or mix both sizes. The array can grow incrementally from a few drives to 178 TB SAS, 576 TB of SAS MDL
or 192 TB SATA MDL.
2 GB transportable read/write cache per controller. Battery-free cache backup with super capacitors and compact flash
Vdisks can be spanned across multiple enclosures
RAID levels 0, 1, 3, 5, 6, 10, 50
Maximums vary by RAID levels: 2 drive max for RAID level 1; max of 16 drives for RAID levels 0, 3, 5, 6, and 10; max of 32
drives for RAID level 50
512 LUNs with LUN sizes greater than 40TB depending on the RAID configuration chosen. The maximum LUN size is 64TB
Non-disruptive on-line controller code upgrade (requires dual controllers w/ multi-pathing software)
Upgradable by design. Owners of an original MSA2000 G1 or G2 array are able to do data-in-place controller upgrades to
the P2000 G3 FC, Combo FC/iSCSI, 1 Gb or 10GbE iSCSI, or P2000 G3 SAS. Cross protocol upgrades are also supported
between the protocols. This unique ability protects the earlier investments in chassis, drives, and JBODs

Drives available

The P2000 G3 controllers support both the P2000 3.5-inch Large Form Factor (LFF) drives, and the HP
Storage 2.5-inch Small Form Factor (SFF) drives.



Serial Attached SCSI (SAS) enterprise-class drives are designed for high demand, 24x7 usage.
SAS Midline and SATA Midline are usually reserved for archival of data as they are both
relatively inexpensive and are available in very large capacities.

The HP entry-level family of arrays can accommodate both SAS and SATA drives within the same
enclosure making it ideal to have both business-critical, high activity files on SAS drives while using
Snapshot, clone, or Remote Snap capability to keep back-up or archival data on the less expensive
drives.
For investment protection, the controllers will support single and dual port SAS & SATA drives in a
legacy single - or dual - domain MSA70. This support allows current owners of MSA70s to migrate their
single port drives (in their MSA70 only, not into the array head) to be attached to a P2000 G3 FC or SAS.
They can only cascade to another single I/O MSA70. This is not a data-in-place transition, and overall
performance could be impacted.
SAS drive performance can be approximately 30% greater than SATA performance on sequential host
I/O. SAS performance excels in sequential lower latency response time and random I/O per second
transaction performance due to higher rpm disk speeds yielding lower seek times. SAS drive random
performance is generally twice that of SATA drives.

HP MSA P2000 G3 Modular Smart Array Systems

Family Information
Vdisks

Vdisks can span across multiple enclosures, where drives used in the Vdisk can be contained in
different enclosures. The maximum number of drives that can be used in RAID 1 Vdisk is 2; RAID 0, 3, 5,
6, and 10 is 16; and for RAID 50 Vdisk is 32.

LUNs

The HP 2000 family of arrays supports 512 LUNs (total volumes in a dual controller system) and LUN
sizes up to 64 TB depending on the RAID configuration chosen. The array supports expansion and
deletion of any LUN.

RAID 0, 1, 3, 5, 6, 10, 50

In addition to the usual RAID levels, the P2000 G3 features several important additional levels. RAID 6
is the highest level of RAID protection. It allocates two sets of parity data across drives and allows
simultaneous write operations. It can withstand two simultaneous drive failures without downtime or
data loss. RAID 10 is mirroring and striping without parity. It is the most popular of the multiple RAID
levels, allowing large arrays with high performance in most cases and superior fault tolerance. RAID 50
combines the block striping and parity of RAID 5 with the straight block striping of RAID 0, yielding
higher performance than RAID 5 through the addition of RAID 0, particularly during writes.

Performance

Performance numbers are a guideline as established by tests using RAW I/O in an Operating System
Agnostic test lab environment. 144 GB 15K SAS drives were used in a dual controller configuration of
12 vdisks consisting of twelve disks per vdisk, 1.6 TB volumes, and 3 volumes per host. 4 hosts directly
attached to the P2000 G3 array were used in this test configuration (results cannot be expected with a
single host). Results were achieved in Sequential Writes with 256K blocks; all random tests were based
on 8K block sizes.
NOTE: Number and type of applications, drive type and number of drives, operating system used, and
the number of hosts will affect overall performance. This table is provided strictly as a test-lab
comparison. Note: These numbers reflect a full array configuration with the maximum number of
front-end ports, disks, and controllers. The test results shown for the P2000 G3 are designed to give a
conservative reference point for comparisons.

VMware Site Recovery
Manager (SRM)

VMware Site Recovery Manager (SRM)
VMware vCenter Site Recovery Manager (SRM) is an extension to VMware vCenter that delivers
business-continuity and disaster-recovery solution that helps you plan, test, and execute the recovery
of vCenter virtual machines. SRM can discover and manage replicated datastores, and automate
migration of inventory from one vCenter to another. Site Recovery Manager integrates with the
underlying replication product through a Storage Replication Adapter (SRA).
HP P2000 Site Recovery Adapter (SRA)
The HP P2000 SRA, a free-to-use plugin, is the program that integrates the VMware cCenter SRM with
HP P2000 G3 arrays. It enables full-featured use of the VMware SRM. It is a host-software component
installed on a Microsoft Windows Server that enables disaster recovery management (DRM) software
on the host to communicate and control certain aspects of the replication feature in storage systems
connected to the server. It allows the VMware SRM software to automatically coordinate virtual
machine failover and failback between a protected data center and a disaster recovery site by
employing a disaster recovery solution called Remote Snap. A perfect combination of the Remote Snap
replication and VMware SRM provides an unfailing automated solution for implementing and testing
the disaster recovery between sites located across geographies. It enables communication between
the HP P2000 Remote Snap replication functionality that is embedded in HP P2000 Fibre Channel, iSCSI,
and Combo Fibre Channel systems. Users are required to acquire Remote Snap license for their local
and remote HP P2000 G3 arrays to use the HP P2000 SRA.

HP Insight Control Storage Module for vCenter
HP Insight Control Storage Module for vCenter is a component within the HP Insight Control plug-in for
vCenter. It provides VMware administrators that are using VMware's vSphere management console
(vCenter) with the ability to see how virtual machines are mapped to datastores and individual P2000
volumes. By providing these clear relationships between VM's, datastores and storage, the VMware
administrator's productivity increases, as does the ability to ensure quality of service. Roles for
administrators can be defined on an individual basis, providing the ability to apply specific permissions
for both view and control functions.
The HP Insight Control Storage Module for vCenter supports mixed array environments including EVA,
P4000, P2000 (MSA), and the XP array series including the P9500.

virtual machine (VM) management operations by delegating these operations to the storage array.
With hardware offload, ESX/ESXi hosts perform certain operations faster and consume less server CPU
and memory resources, and also storage port and storage fabric bandwidth. VAAI includes high
performance and scalable VM data path primitives. HP introduced VAAI support for HP MSA P2000
Storage array products starting with the T230 firmware release.

HP P2000 Remote Snap Software is array based software that provides remote replication on
the HP P2000 G3 MSA Array products (except SAS model). HP Remote Snap is a form of
asynchronous replication which consists of replication of block-level data from a volume on a
local system to a volume that may be on the same system or on a second independent system.
This second system may be collocated with the first system or may be located at a remote site.
It requires T230Rxx controller firmware or higher.
HP Remote Snap functionality is based on existing Snapshot technology offered by HP P2000
SAN Array products. Snapshots are used to track the data to be replicated as well as to
determine the differences in data updated on the master volume, minimizing the amount of
data to be transferred.
HP Remote Snap replication technology provides the ability to accomplish key data
management and protection capabilities. First, because Remote Snap uses snapshots as the
underlying technology it creates multiple local recovery points which can be used for such
tasks as to complement daily backups; second, replication provides the ability to access data in
a remote site which could be used for dispersed operations; and third but definitely not least
important replication allows for business continuance in the event of a failure on the primary
site.
In order to perform a replication, a snapshot of the volume to be replicated is taken, creating a
point-in-time image of the data. This point-in-time image is then replicated to the destination
volume by copying the data represented by the snapshot via a transport medium such as
TCP/IP (iSCSI) or Fibre Channel. The amount of data transferred is minimized though the use of
snapshots whenever possible.

Storage based asynchronous snapshot replication
Initial copy of data can be performed locally, reducing burden on wide area networks
Support of both Ethernet and Fiber Channel interconnects provides flexible options to the
application environments.
Snapshot based replication technology means only changed data will be replicated to alternate
site
Many to 1 replication (up to 4 nodes) - primary use case is to replicate from "many" branch
offices to the home office for the purpose of backing up data from the branches
Single controller to single controller replication
Mixed controller replication - replication between P2000 G3 Fibre Channel and P2000 G3
FC/iSCSI Combo arrays
Advanced scheduler provides several options to IT administrators for business continuance
Flexible architecture allows remote replication between P2000 G3 Fibre Channel and/or P2000
G3 FC/iSCSI Combo arrays. You can also join dissimilar controllers; for instance a Combo
controller can snap remotely to a 1 or 10 GbE iSCSI array. Protects existing investments and
enhances business continuity planning objectives.
Replication Wizard simplifies the task of setting up and establishing replication pairs from one
unified, easy to use GUI.
Snapshot based replication enables both local and remote recovery depending on the need.

Customer Benefits

Snapshot replication isolates problems to a specific point in time which can be selected by the
administrator. Additionally snapshot replication supports longer distance replication.
Multiple relationships provide greater storage flexibility and utilization.
Bundled 64 Snapshots and Volume Copy integration provides better efficiencies by combining
the management and array technologies to create local copies.
Fast application recovery with minimal or no transaction loss
Creation of disaster tolerant copies of your critical business data
No-single-point-of-failure solution to increase the availability of your customers data

Disaster Recovery
Replication technology has typically been used to address disaster recovery issues. Disaster recovery is
still the driving business case behind replication. Remote replication can be implemented from the
production site to one or more remote sites across a campus, across town, across a state or across the
country. When a disaster strikes the primary location, the applications can be brought up at the remote
site and continue processing against the replicated copies. When the primary site is back online, the
replication can be reversed and when the data is resynchronized, processing can be switched back to
the primary site and business can continue. In the past, if an e-mail system experienced a disaster it
was an "oh well" moment. The loss of a day or more of e-mail was not considered important. Today, email is a critical component of many companies' business plans and recovering e-mail after a disaster
quickly and completely is required.
Maintenance
HP Remote Snap software can also be used to solve other business needs. For instance, E-mail servers
may need periodic maintenance that can take hours to complete. With remote replication in place, the
downtime can be minimal (as long as it takes to bring the remote peer of the primary e-mail server
online). The primary server can be worked on (patches, hardware upgrades, etc.) and then brought back

online and into production. A whole datacenter can be failed over to a remote site on purpose to
perform maintenance on generators, air conditioning, etc. Replication can also be used to perform a
datacenter move with minimal downtime (fail everything to the DR site, move the production
datacenter to its new location then fail the DR site back to the new datacenter).
Storage Based
Data replication is performed at the storage subsystem controller level and is totally transparent to the
host, alleviating unnecessary host cycles to perform the data mirroring functions. Unlike a fabric based
or host based solution, the storage based solution dedicates its resources to managing the replication
process between arrays, with minimal impact to applications, other data or devices on the SAN.
Bi-Directional
The bidirectional HP P2000 Array solution addresses the growing need among businesses to ensure
continuous availability of applications that are critical to daily business operations. HP P2000 enables
two sites in a remote replication connection to use each other as a destination to maintain replicated
copies of online data. This maximizes resource utilization while enabling business continuance, even in
the event of disaster.
Disaster Tolerance
The P2000 G3 FC products utilize snapshot data online and in real time to a remote P2000 G3 through a
local or extended storage area network (SAN). Additionally, data replication can be bidirectional,
meaning that a storage array can be both a source and a destination. A particular LUN can be replicated
in only one direction between the two storage arrays. Write I/O data sent to the source is replicated by
HP P2000 Array to the destination. A pair of properly configured HP P2000 G3 FC arrays is a replication
solution that guarantees data integrity in the event of a storage system or site failure.
Normalization (first initial copy)
When a DR site is initially created a normalization or initial copy of the data from the source volume to
the target volume must occur. The P2000 G3 array allows this first copy to take place locally. After
completion the disks can me manually moved to the remote location. Subsequent changes will only
remotely copy the changed blocks.
SAN Extensions
HP P2000 G3 Array provides the capability to replicate data over direct Fibre Channel. The distances
supported over dark fiber are determined by the speed of the dark fiber connection and the technology
used to communicate over the dark fiber.
Path failover (MPIO)

MPIO for Windows provides a single multi-path solution for HP P2000 G3 Modular Smart Array on HP
servers.
Support for Windows 2003 and Windows 2003 R2 operating systems is provided by HP MPIO Full
