HP Storage Essentials Performance Edition Software monitors performance along the complete path of
business applications through underlying storage area networks (SAN) components, including host
server, host bus adapter (HBA), fabric switch and Enterprise Virtual Array. A unified and simplified
interface, helps EVA administrators increase efficiency, troubleshoot performance bottlenecks faster, and
quickly visualize the performance of their EVA storage, hosts and SAN infrastructure with real-time
monitoring, historical trend analysis and trend extrapolation.

Expanding the power of the HP Enterprise Virtual Array (EVA), the HP 12000 Virtual Library System EVA
Gateway accelerates backup performance in complex SAN environments while improving overall
reliability. Integrating seamlessly into existing backup applications and processes by emulating popular
tape libraries and tape drive formats, the HP VLS12000 EVA Gateway matches the existing data
protection environment, removing the need to change backup software or monitoring policies.
Additionally, because the VLS EVA Gateway uses HP EVAs as the storage pool, ease of use is maintained
throughout the system. By emulating multiple tape drives simultaneously, more backup jobs can be done
in parallel resulting in reduced backup times and, because the data resides on disk, single file restores
are exceptionally fast.
The HP Virtual Library System EVA Gateway simplifies your SAN environment by providing more virtual
devices and leveraging existing switches and HP EVA infrastructure. The result is the ability to vastly
increase scale yet reduce the complexity of shared storage while maintaining the manageability of the
system. As your environment changes, the HP Virtual Library System EVA Gateway adapts to it - host
masking and mapping ensure that only the appropriate hosts have access to the HP Virtual Library
System.
The HP Virtual Library System EVA Gateway offers advanced features such as Automigration which allows
users to move data under the control of the VLS from the VLS storage to tape or another VLS. The VLS
EVA Gateway also supports accelerated deduplication which delivers fast backup performance since the
deduplication process does not impact the backup. For more information on the VLS EVA Gateway,

Connectivity
EVA iSCSI/FCoE support is integrated into the EVA6400 and EVA8400 14/22GB 10GbE iSCSI/FCoE
and available through the HP MPX200 Multifunction Router and the EVA iSCSI Connectivity Option.
These powerful solutions provide iSCSI connectivity to an EVA utilizing the EVA's existing Fibre Channel
infrastructure. The EVA6400 and EVA8400 10GbE iSCSI offerings come with standard 3 year 9x5
warranty and Installation and Start-up.
As mid-range and enterprise businesses grow and deploy physical/virtual servers and storage arrays, the
amount of information required to manage, share, and protect continues to grow. The HP MPX200
Multifunction Router extends the Fibre Channel (FC) SAN and HP Enterprise Virtual Array (EVA)
investment with integrated multi-protocol support, allowing customers to incorporate iSCSI without
requiring separate iSCSI storage arrays or additional management costs. The MPX200 offers
simultaneous iSCSI and Fibre Channel over IP (FCIP) support or iSCSI and offline data migration support
with 10 GbE (iSCSI only), 1 GbE (iSCSI and FCIP) and 8Gb/s FC technology, providing modular multi-
protocol SAN designs with increased scalability, stability, ROI and simpler to manage, secure storage
solutions for virtualized server environments. MPX 200's enterprise-class high-availability design provides
dual hot-plug power supplies and router blades for no single point of failure. MPX200, integrated in
