Integration
IntegrationIntegration
Integration HP EVA6400/8400 models are 4Gb/s FC Switched Fabric "enabled" and can operate on 8Gb/s, 4Gb/s
or 2Gb/s FC Switched Fabric SANs. They can co-exist in the same FC SAN with previous generations of
EVA, FC storage solutions and many other SAN devices.
EVA Manageability

EVA Manageability HP Command View EVA provides the capability to manage the EVA Array family in a SAN or direct
connect Fibre Channel host attach configuration. HP Command View EVA software runs on a variety of
server configurations using Windows Server 2003. HP X1800, X3400, X3800 Network Storage Systems
are the perfect platforms from which to run Command View EVA. HP Network Storage Systems allow you
to stretch your investment by combining EVA management, file and print services, and iSCSI connectivity
all on the same platform.
The powerful Command View EVA provides an easy mechanism to manage up to 16 EVA units in a SAN
configuration. Industry leading security enhancements in Command View now allows administrators to
take advantage of Windows domains and local groups. Command View integrates with Windows Active
Directory to authorize and authenticate users. In addition, all user actions and events that change system
state are logged. Administrators can now use the audit logging capabilities to provide an audit trail. The
Command View EVA media kits and license are required with all EVA models. HP Command View EVA
requires a License to use (LTUs) equal to, or greater than the total raw capacity of each array.
Performance

Performance Fibre Channel host connections provide up to 400MB/s bandwidth for each path. Dual mirrored port
write caching capability, with battery backed cache, maintains optimal availability while assuring data
integrity in the event of a failure.
Each HSV400 controller (for EVA6400 configurations) has four Fibre Channel host ports (eight ports in a
redundant pair of controllers) assuring the availability of bandwidth for the most demanding applications.
In addition, up to 4GB of cache per controller pair ensures high performance.
Each HSV450 controller (for EVA8400 configurations) has four Fibre Channel host ports (eight ports in a
redundant pair of controllers) assuring the availability of bandwidth for the most stringent applications. In
addition, up to 22GB of cache per controller pair ensures high performance.
