HP SAN Visibility SAN Visibility is a complementary software utility for HP customers that helps with SAN Analysis, SAN Diagnostics and SAN Optimization. SAN Visibility saves you considerable time, money, and effort by automating inventory activities and providing a quick and accurate view of your SAN topology. SAN Visibility has an automated report generation feature that produces recommendations, topology diagrams, and informative SAN element reports for switches, host bus adapters and storage array connectivity. SAN Visibility runs on any Windows desktop or laptop which has network connectivity to a switch within your SAN http://h18006.www1.hp.com/storage/networking/sansolutions.html

HP SAN Designer SAN Designer is a powerful application to help you design a customized SAN. Configure and design your SAN based on the following attributes: performance, cost, and future growth requirements. SAN Designer helps you select the fabric characteristics as well as the SAN elements allowing for a complete SAN Design. The reporting feature of SAN Designer generates topology diagrams, required SAN components, and additional recommendations for your SAN Design. SAN Designer is a complementary software utility for HP customers and runs on a Windows desktop or laptop. http://h18006.www1.hp.com/storage/networking/sandesigner.html

Virtual Connect FlexFabric Module Hardware Overview The Virtual Connect FlexFabric module is the first Data Center Bridging (DCB) and Fibre Channel over Ethernet (FCoE) solution introduced into the HP BladeSystem portfolio. It provides 24 line rate ports, Full-Duplex 240Gbps bridging, single DCB-hop fabric. As shown in Image 1, there are 8 faceplate ports. Ports X1-X4 are SFP+ transceiver slots only; which can accept a 10Gb or 8Gb SFP+ transceiver. Ports X5-X8 are SFP and SFP+ capable, and do not support 8Gb SFP+ transceivers.

B-series Switches Flexible Fabrics High Speed 16Gb optimized inter switch links (ISLs) provide twice the performance as previous generation Fibre Channel switches. The net result is there are fewer links, fewer cables, fewer ports and less power for the same performance.

Overview The HP 8/24 SAN switch addresses the needs of SMB organizations as well as large enterprises by functioning as a standalone core switch or as lower-cost edge switch in large core-to-edge tiered storage networks. The 3/24 SAN switches provides unprecedented investment protection. Auto-sensing ports that support backward compatibility with 1, 2, 4, and 8 Gbit/sec devices significantly reduce deployment complexity and costs, while providing compatibility with installed devices. Organizations that do not require 8 Gbit/sec interfaces can populate the new switches with 4 Gbit/sec SFPs, while preserving their ability to- easily upgrade to 8 Gbit/sec SFPs in the future. The 8/24 SAN Switch with 24 enabled ports may be deployed as a full-fabric switch or in Access Gateway mode, which provides connectivity into any SAN (the default mode setting is a switch). Access Gateway mode utilizes NPIV switch standards to present Fibre Channel connections as logical devices to SAN fabrics.

Correct Answer: D

Network RAID-0, Network RAID-5, and Network RAID-6 will not tolerate site failures. Network RAID 5 - Stores three data and one parity as a minimum configuration i.e 3+1 , meaning three nodes as a starting point.

Network RAID 6 - Stores three data and two parity as a minimum configuration i.e 3+2 , meaning five nodes are required initially.

Network RAID 10 - Stores two copies of each volume's block, providing continuous data availability across any single node failure.

Network RAID 10+1 - Stores three copies of each block for mission-critical data that needs to be available despite any double node failure.

Network RAID 10+2 - used in situations where a cluster is divided between two locations, and the data must be continuously available in the event of both a site failure and a node failure at the alternate site (Campus SAN).

Network RAID10+1: Data is striped and mirrored across three or more storage systems. Three copies of the Data in a volume configured with Network RAID10+1 are available and preserved in the event that any two storage systems become

unavailable. Best applications for Network RAID10+1 are those that require data availability even if two storage systems in a cluster become unavailable.

Network RAID10+2: Data is striped and mirrored across four or more storage systems. Four copies of the Data in a volume configured with Network RAID10+2 is preserved in the event that any three storage systems become unavailable.

Network RAID10+2 are designed for Multi- Site SANs to preserve data in the event of an entire site becoming unavailable. Best use for Network RAID10+2 volumes is for data that must be synchronously replicated between two locations and

must remain fully redundant in the case of an entire site failure.

Correct Answer: A

The HP StoreVirtual DSM for Microsoft MPIO provides enhanced MPIO functionality as follows:

Automatic creation of an I/O path to each storage system in the cluster on which the volume resides, plus a path for the administrative connection.

HP 3PAR Persistent Ports HP 3PAR Persistent Ports is another Tier 1 resiliency feature that provides non-disruptive online software upgrades on HP 3PAR StoreServ Storage without relying on multipathing software to initiate failover. This feature, available on all HP 3PAR StoreServ models, brings Tier 1 resiliency across the 3PAR StoreServ product line, including midrange models, by helping to ensure that host paths remain online throughout the software upgrade process. The use of standard NPIV (N_Port ID Virtualization) technology enables a single host-facing 3PAR StoreServ port to assume the identity of additional predesignated partner ports, thus enabling transparent switchover of host path connections.
