Does your data center involve complex, heterogeneous storage networking components where trouble shooting is very resource intensive?

HPE Intelligent Infrastructure Analyzer Software is an online monitoring and diagnostic product intended to manage the physical layer of a data center. It enables users to diagnose changes in Small Form-factor Pluggable (SFP) transceiver characteristics and can be used to detect potential failures in the SAN for root cause analysis and failure impact assessment. Diagnosing SAN issues can be exceedingly time-consuming and there is a tremendous need to isolate and resolve problems quickly—in a matter of minutes or hours as opposed to days or weeks. HPE Intelligent Infrastructure Analyzer Software improves the total datacenter quality experience by predicting optical link failures and helps reduce costs incurred due to application downtime.

HPE XP P9000 Performance Accelerator Software improves storage performance and helps improve return on investment. Performance Accelerator improves random I/O performance on XP P9000 arrays.

Templates are customizable using Service Builder to tune for your workloads, such as SAP®, Microsoft®, Oracle®, OpenStack®, and VMware®. Intelligent automation with HPE XP7 Automation Director software simplifies storage infrastructure management, improves productivity, reduces cost, and frees up resources for strategic innovation.

Storage Area Networks and the tools that are used to manage them have become increasingly complex. SAN administrators spend more time in configuration tasks – tedious manual activities which can potentially result in unplanned downtime. The reasons for the complexity include the increased adoption of Virtualization – a complexity stemming from mapping the virtual and physical layers of the SAN and the adoption of multiple protocols - iSCSI, FC and FCoE. HPE Smart SAN for 3PAR makes SAN configuration and management simple and error-free through intelligent automation. It is a protocol agnostic application embedded in SAN components that enables the 3PAR to orchestrate configuration, settings and policies in a HPE StoreFabric SAN. HPE Smart SAN’s Target Driven Peer Zoning enables you to configure zones accurately in minutes and not in hours and its automatic discovery mechanism creates a powerful platform which would enable real-time diagnostics and SAN analysis for more resiliency.

Do you need to protect your data across multiple site failures ? Are you looking for a multi disaster tolerant solution that also provides high availability?

HPE XP7 Three Data Center High Availability Suite with High Availability and Continuous Access Journal delta resync combines the high availability and synchronous replication at metropolitan distances with the long distance capability of journal replication.

A campus/metropolitan HA implementation allows for data currency due to Active-Active configuration at data center 1 and 2 with no impact to application availability or performance.

The HA pair volume are configured for Active-Active setup to provide for 14 9s availability.

If a failure at Site A, prevents host access to primary volume at Site A, read and write I/O can still continue to Site B, providing continuous server I/O to the data volume.

The journal for delta resync pair holds the differential data between the S-VOLs on local and remote sites.

The HPE StoreFront Analytics software provides customers using HPE 3PAR StoreServ storage with dashboards to gain deep insights and visibility into log analytics of the storage infrastructure.
HPE StoreFront Analytics integrates directly into VMware vRealize Log Insight through dashboards and custom fields specific to HPE storage. This dashboard allows VMware vSphere administrators to quickly view storage logs and errors and allows to easier troubleshoot scenarios that span across virtual and physical layers, which includes the HPE 3PAR StoreServ layer.
By actively analyzing and providing alerts of virtual machines, datastores and storage, the VMware vSphere administrator's productivity increases, as does the ability to rapidly identify and troubleshoot potential problems and ensure consistent, predictable quality of service.
