What is a VSA? VSA = Virtual Storage Appliance Any storage: DAS, NAS, SAN, internal disks. Any vendor. Up to 50TBs. Benefits: Very low cost Better utilize existing infrastructure 3 year license Hypervisor: Vmware Hyper-V Other hypervisors to follow Any x86 hardware: HP, Dell, IBM, Fujitsu, white box any vendor. Scale from 1-50TB in a single license Includes all licenses like snapshots, replication, Peer Motion, Same GUI, experience and features as hardware appliances Included: 3 years support All applicable licenses Same experience on VSA and physical models + All the usual benefits of virtualization. 4
Why a VSA? HP StoreVirtual VSA transforms your server s internal or direct-attached storage into a fully-featured shared storage array without the cost and complexity associated with dedicated storage. - Increased storage utilization - Eliminate costs and complexity associated with dedicated external storage - Scale-out architecture: add storage capacity on-the-fly without compromising performance - Adaptive optimization allows SSD flash storage tiering to obtain the highest performance - Simplified management including plug-ins for VMware vcenter and Microsoft System Center Currently 2 versions available: - StoreVirtual VSA - StoreOnce VSA 5

Adaptive Optimization Simple workload acceleration Intelligent sub-volume auto-tiering Adaptive Optimization uses all capacity of the underlying storage subsystem Relies on Adaptive Optimization capable storage systems with two user-designated tiers: Tier 0 (faster) and Tier 1 Supports virtually any storage option on VMware and Windows Hardware Compatibility Matrix Recommended tiering options: SSD/, /MDL HP recommends 10-15% of the total capacity in an SSD/ mix configuration to be SSD Volumes are configured with either Adaptive Optimization permitted or Adaptive Optimization not permitted S S D H D D 15
Adaptive Optimization Simple application acceleration Tier 0 is always ~100% utilized Granularity is a single LeftHand OS page (256 kb) Each storage system continuously maintains a heat map about the pages and moves data accordingly A page is moved to Tier 0, if Adaptive Optimization is permitted on the volume and the page is more frequently accessed than other pages in tier 0 on the storage system A page is moved out of Tier 0, if the page is less frequently accessed as a page in tier 1 on the storage system In addition to access counts there is also a threshold that is used to prevent thrashing Disabling Adaptive Optimization on a volume will cause pages to be gradually moved to the lower tier StoreVirtual Cluster System Tier 0 (3 SSD) AO permitted Tier 1 (7 HDD) AO permitted Tier 0 (3 SSD) AO not permitted System Tier 1 (7 HDD) 16

What does Veeam Data Protection Software do? Hyper-V and VMware Backup & Recovery Runs on Windows (VM or Physical) Hardware-agnostic Backup to/recover from CIFS or NFS Compression/Dedupe at the source API Integration VADP, VSS (log truncation) Hyper-V and VMware VM Replication Hardware-agnostic VM-level replication HP Storage Integration Reads StoreVirtual and StoreServ Snapshots Recover from HW Snaps (Veeam Backup Free Ed) Backup from HW Snaps (Veeam Enterprise Plus Ed - NOT Free) 20
Veeam Explorer for SAN Snapshots What is it? New capability in Veeam Backup and Replication 6.5 Restore from a SAN snapshot through the Veeam backup console Point in time copy created by the storage system Currently can only recover from Veeam backups (or replicas) 21
Veeam Explorer for SAN Snapshots What it isn t A separate product (it s part of Veeam Backup & Replication) Available for Hyper-V (it s VMware only) Available for any SAN (it s HP StoreVirtual SAN only) Replacement for Veeam disk-based backups SAN snapshots are great for operational recovery Very low overhead Protection against daily disasters (user deletes data, script corrupts data, system update goes wrong, ) SAN Snapshots are NOT backups They offer no protection against storage failures Never store your backup with your production data 22
Veeam Recovery How it works 1. From the VEEAM UI, a command to the SAN is initiated through the API 2. The SAN issues a clone of the requested snapshot 3. The clone is promoted to an active LUN 4. The LUN is mounted on the vsphere host and a re-signature operation occurs 5. Veeam initiates the recovery operation 6. Post-recovery, a cleanup command is issued to the SAN to delete the promoted snapshot 23

Deduplication What is it? HP StoreOnce cleverly eliminates duplicate data to reduce the amount of backup data to be stored on disk Compares blocks of data being written to the backup device with data blocks previously stored. If duplicate data is found, a pointer is established to the original data. This removes, or deduplicates, the redundant blocks. Backup 1 Backup 2 Backup 3 Backup 4 Backup 5 HP D2D Backup Systems allow unique data to be compressed following deduplication and prior to storing to disk Unique blocks Stored on D2D 25
NEW! StoreOnce VSA Software-only version of the HP StoreOnce Backup system, packaged as a virtual appliance to run on a hypervisor installed by the customer. Delivers similar functionality to the physical StoreOnce appliances Currently the VSA is supported on VMware vsphere 5.x (ESXi) only Key benefits: Removes the need to install dedicated hardware Allows us to take the same tried & true feature set from physical G3 single node appliances & apply those features to a virtualized environment. 26
NEW! StoreOnce VSA What s Supported? Up to 10 TB (raw) storage (Scalable from 1 to 10 TB) Ability to create the following StoreOnce backup target devices (up to 4) StoreOnce Catalyst stores iscsi VT libraries CIFS NAS shares Fully compatible with HP StoreOnce hardware products for replication and Catalyst Copy functions Fully integrated within HP StoreOnce Enterprise Manager (SEM 1.0), both for ease of management and for ease of deployment.
