HP Storage Management for Oracle 5.0.1 Release Notes, HP-UX 11i v3, First Edition, November 2009

Table 1-3 Features enabled by the SMO licenses. (continued)
SMO Standard T2789DBFeature
YesFile Change Log
• Logs file system activity for fast incremental backup and auditing
Yes
Online FileSystem Operations (fsadm)
• File system resize
• File system defragmentation
• Single file or directory defragmentation
• File System intent log resize
YesDMAPI – A VxFS interface that enables Hierarchical Storage Management
(HSM) also known as XDSM.
YesFile systems up to 256 TB
YesMulti-Volume File System – Allows more than 1 volume to comprise a
file system. The VxFS intent log and other metadata can be placed on a
separate volume(s), and files can be dynamically striped across multiple
volumes, avoiding volume relayouts when adding storage. This does
not license Dynamic Storage Tiering although both share many
underlying technical components.
YesVeritas Volume Manager (Full)
YesRootability and root disk mirroring
YesConcatenation/Spanning, Striping (RAID-0), LUN Carving, Multiple disk
groups
YesDMP (Active/Passive (A/P) failover only for root disk)
YesDynamic Multipathing (DMP) - Balances I/O across multiple paths
between the server and the storage array to improve performance and
availability. With DMP, common failures from I/O path, HBA, or switch
failures can be avoided as administrators can spread I/O across all
available paths.
YesHot-relocation – Automatically migrates data from failing disks to healthy
disks, online.
YesOnline Administration
• Limits the amount of time that storage needs to be offline for
maintenance by performing volume resizing (including shrinking),
domain reconfiguration, backup, and off-host processing while the
data remains online and available (online migration, volume resizing,
online relayout).
• Provides task monitoring for VxVM tasks.
YesRAID5SNAP – Enables you to split a volume comprising of two RAID-5
plexes.
YesRAID - Supports RAID for maximum availability and performance,
(RAID-1; RAID5; Striped Mirrors (RAID 1+0); Mirrored Stripes (RAID
0+1)
YesDirty Region Log for fast recovery of mirrored volumes
YesOracle SmartSync Support
• Improves Oracle runtime and recovery performance with mirrored
volumes
• File System through ODM Configuration
YesOracle SmartSync Support – Improves Oracle runtime and recovery
performance with mirrored volumes. Raw volume configuration.
