Product Highlights

Compaq, the leader in Network Storage, delivers the StorageWorks??? NAS B3000 by Compaq ??? the entry-point into NAS/SAN fusion solutions bringing enterprise-level availability, scalability and performance in a turnkey package

???Entry-point to the fusion of NAS and SAN ??? Universal Network Storage ??? provides the best utilization of storage investment. Consolidate NAS and SAN into a single, managed storage infrastructure

???Enterprise level scalability ??? to 27 TB

???Highly available solution ??? including clustering, RAID ADG, fully integrated software packages, no-single- point-of-failure configurations available

???Turnkey package ??? configurations include all of the components to provide high performance block- and file-serving

Key Benefits

Maximized Return on Storage Investment

???Multi-protocol file serving ??? support for Microsoft??? Windows??? (CIFS), UNIX??? /Linux??? (NFS), Novell???

NetWare??? (NCP), Apple (AppleTalk), HTTP and FTP

???Minimize ongoing operational expenses associated with file serving

???Enable clients and applications to easily access data over the existing network, while also reducing the cost of accessing SAN based storage

???Save money and resources with centralized storage and system management

Unlimited Scalability

???Grow your storage capacity as your business grows- without downtime and without compromising performance

???Up to 27 TB capacity scalability, higher capacity can be reached with external switches

???The B3000 supports both 1 Gb/sec and 2 Gb/sec Fibre channel fabrics to ensure that your investment in infrastructure is protected.

???DAS to SAN means file data that is currently stored on 1??? Universal disk drives using newer Compaq Smart Array controllers, as well as file data on an RA4100 can easily be migrated to the B3000. Simply remove the drives from the older systems and insert them into the B3000. All configuration information and data will be preserved allowing migration to be completed in minutes, not hours or days.

Continuous Data Availability

???Ensure that data is always available enabling business continuance through:

???Cluster Configurations

???Advanced Data Guarding

???Hardware redundancy

???File replication

???Backup support

???Antivirus support

Standard Features

B3000 External Storage Components

With the following components, your storage capacity and performance can be scaled to new levels:

Modular SAN Array 1000

The 4U cabinet houses up to fourteen 1??? Compaq Universal hot pluggable Ultra2 and/or Ultra3 drives.

The modular design of the MSA1000 makes it possible to add redundant controllers, redundant single port Fibre Channel I/O Modules or Fabric Switches and storage expansion enclosures.

MSA1000 Controller

The MSA1000 Controller is an integrated RAID controller with an integrated LCD/LED status display and 128-MB read/write battery-backed cache (expandable to 256 MB per controller). Redundant MSA1000 controllers are an option.

Key Features

???Redundant controller support

???Fabric, Private Loop & Public Loop Support

???Auto Negotiated F, FL & L Port Login

???RAID 0, 1, 1+0, 5 and ADG

???2Gb/1Gb Frequency Agile

???Primary & Secondary Inter-Controller Link (ICL)

???Host based configuration via ACU

???Remote configuration and monitoring via ACU XE (offline and remote) & CIM XE

MSA1000 Controller Management Features

???Selective Storage Presentation: allows multiple hosts to access a single MSA1000 storage system. Host access can be defined all the way down to a logical volume level.

???Online RAID Level Migration: allows for online post-configuration change to RAID level without destroying data or volume information.

???Online Capacity Expansion: lets you add storage to an operational MSA1000 ??? reducing expensive server downtime.

???Online Volume Extension: allows for the capacity growth of existing logical volumes.

???Global Online Spare: reduces the risk of data loss by facilitating automatic rebuilds after a drive failure.

Fault Tolerance

Several fault tolerant configurations, which keep data available and servers running while drives are being replaced, are supported including:

???Advanced Data Guarding (RAID ADG): Allocates the equivalence of 2 parity drives across multiple drives and allows simultaneous write operations.

???Distributed Data Guarding (RAID 5): Allocates parity data across multiple drives and allows simultaneous write operations.

???Drive Mirroring (RAID 1, (1+0 Striped Mirroring)): Allocates half of the drive array to data and the other half to mirrored data, providing two copies of every file.

Fault Recovery

Minimizes downtime, reconstructs data, and facilitates a quick recovery from drive failure

???On-Line Spares: If a failure occurs, recovery begins with an on-line spare and data is reconstructed automatically. One on-line spare can be assigned per array and used across multiple arrays. It is also possible to assign different on-line spares across different arrays.

???Array Accelerator: Onboard, battery-backed cache memory protects data in the event of a power failure. In the unlikely event of a controller failure, the battery-backed cache will save critical user data for up to three days.

MSA1000 Fibre Channel I/O Module

The Fibre Channel I/O module provides a 2 Gb/s Fibre Channel connection from the host side into the MSA1000. The MSA1000 Fibre Channel I/O Module includes one 2 Gb/s, Short Wave, Small Form Factor Pluggable Transceiver (SFP). A second MSA1000 Fibre Channel I/O Module can be installed for redundancy when a redundant controller is used.

MSA Fabric Switch 6

The MSA1000 Fabric Switch 6 is a six port, 2 Gb/s Fibre Channel Fabric Switch. The MSA1000 Fabric Switch 6 replaces the standard single port Fibre Channel connection provided by the MSA1000 Fibre Channel I/O Module. There are a total of five external fibre channel ports. Four of the external fibre channel ports are Small Form Factor Fixed (SFF) short wave transceivers and are not removable. The fifth port requires the installation of a Small Form Factor Pluggable (SFP) transceiver. One port is used internally by the MSA1000 controller.

B3000 External Storage Components

MSA Fabric Switch 6 Key Features

???2 Gb/s 6 Port Fabric Switch integrated into the MSA1000 Chassis

???5 ports external, 1 port internal

???4 Small Form Factor Fixed Short Wave (SFF) Transceivers, 1 Small Form Factor Short Wave Pluggable (SFP) Transceiver with LC connectors

???2 Gb/1 Gb Frequency Agile

???Managed Out of Band

???Hot Pluggable

???Efficient, space saving design

2Gb/sec Small Form Factor Pluggable (SFP) SW Transceiver Kit

2 Gb/s Small Form Factor Pluggable (SFP) SW Transceivers are industry standard connection devices, which hot plug into 2 Gb/s infrastructure components such as 2 Gb/s Fabric Switches. StorageWorks 2 Gb/s SFP SW Transceivers support distances up to 300 metres at 2 Gb/s and 500 metres at 1 Gb/s using multi-mode fiber optic cable.

Multi-Mode Fibre Channel Cables

Multi-Mode Fibre Channel cables provide a thin, flexible cabling solution that is immune to electromagnetic interference. Compaq offers cables to connect the MSA1000 to both 2 Gb and 1 Gb Fibre Channel infrastructures. LC to LC cables are used when connecting the MSA1000 to other 2 Gb Fibre Channel components because both connections will utilize small form factor transceivers. LC to SC cables are used when connecting the MSA1000 to 1 Gb Fibre Channel components. 1 Gb components use the larger GBIC style transceivers.

NOTE: The 10-Amp AC cord, which ships standard with the Compaq ProLiant DL580, utilizes a right angle plug on the server side (the side that plugs into the server) to avoid interference with the Cable Management Arm. Compaq High Voltage PDUs ship standard with 15-Amp AC cords that incorporate straight plugs on the server side. The optional Compaq High Voltage PDU Right Angled Cable Kit (142257-004) provides a right angle version of the 15-Amp AC cord. When deploying Compaq High Voltage PDUs with the Compaq ProLiant DL580, you may choose to simplify cable management at the rear of the server chassis by installing this option kit.
