1 Overview of HP StorageWorks hardware providers This chapter describes the HP StorageWorks hardware providers for Windows, and explains how they function with Microsoft operating systems and applications. HP hardware providers are software products that are installed on a Windows server connected to an HP disk array. They enable Windows operating systems and applications to control disk array functions and copy disk array data.
Management applications Management applications operate through the Microsoft VDS and VSS services and HP hardware providers to manage application data, manage array disks and volumes, perform backups, and restore data. Microsoft command-line utilities Microsoft command-line utilities can manage any storage device with a VDS or VSS hardware provider. • The DiskPart utility, which comes standard with Windows XP and Windows Server, is used to manage disks, volumes, and partitions.
HP VDS and VSS hardware providers The HP VDS and VSS hardware providers consist of DLLs and executables that are installed on your Windows server. These components extend the capabilities of Windows and its applications to manage HP disk arrays. You can install the HP VDS or VSS hardware provider, or both. Using Windows applications and the HP VDS hardware provider, you can manage array ports; discover and manage LUNs; format, partition, and mount volumes; and create and manage file systems and files.
2 Installing HP hardware providers for HP P6000 disk arrays This chapter explains how to install and uninstall HP hardware providers for the HP P6000 disk arrays. Preparing to install HP P6000 hardware providers This section describes required hardware and software and explains how to configure the disk array and Windows servers for use with HP hardware providers. You must complete the procedures in this section before you install the hardware providers.

For supported P6000 models, see the HP StorageWorks P6000 hardware provider release notes. • HP StorageWorks Command View EVA Server—A Windows server running Command View EVA. Multiple P6000 disk arrays must be managed from one Command View management server. Other software is conditionally required on the Command View EVA server.
• Ethernet network interface cards (or available network interface port)—Connect each server to the Ethernet LAN. Notes on installing HP P6000 hardware providers The following notes will help ensure successful operation of the hardware providers: • Using multiple servers to manage primary data and data copies is optional. However, if you use multiple servers, they must be in the same Ethernet domain so that the DCOM communication process can communicate between servers.
5. Connect the server to the disk array via the built-in Fibre Channel fabric switch, if present, or an external switch. Configure the switch, including zoning if required, according to the manufacturer's instructions. For helpful information on SAN construction, see the HP StorageWorks SAN Design Reference Guide, available at www.hp.com/go/SDGManuals. 6. Connect the server to the corporate Ethernet LAN, through a firewall if desired.
4. Log in to Command View EVA using one of the user accounts you just created. 5. Add VDS and VSS hosts. For details about adding hosts, see the Command View EVA online help. 6.

To check, in the Windows menu bar select Start > Control Panel. Select Administrative Tools. Under Computer Management, select Disk Management (under Storage). If array LUNs are not visible, click Action > Refresh and Action > Scan Disks. 2. Do the array volumes appear when you use the DiskPart utility? At the Run command prompt, enter diskpart.exe.
3. For P9000 and XP family of disk arrays only: Verify that the RAID Manager Library is installed on all VDS/VSS servers. The RMLib is required in order to copy LUNs using VSS. 4. Make sure you configured the VSS configuration utility as explained in the configuration and installation sections. 5. Check configuration as explained in the configuration and installation sections: 6. 7. • VDS/VSS server not connected to the SAN correctly.
• The VDS/VSS server is too slow. Use a newer, faster CPU with sufficient memory. • Privileges are not set correctly. Administrator privileges are required in all applications and on all hardware used with the HP VSS hardware provider. • A writer application is not configured according to best practices. Consult the software manufacturer for recommended practices. For example, keeping database files small by creating more rather than larger files may speed up overall operation and database copying.

Troubleshooting the HP hardware providers (P6000 only) VSS Shadow copy creation failure VSS Shadow copy creation fails due to one of the following issues: • A snapshot of another allocation policy is attempted when a Volume already has a snapshot of one allocation policy (fully-allocated or demand-allocated).
• LUN already has a Snapshot • LUN is a Snapclone Source • Snapclone copy is in progress for the LUN • LUN is a Mirrorclone • LUN is a Mirrorclone Source • LUN already has a Mirrorclone Snapshot Snapclone creation is not supported for any of the specified states of the source LUN. Hence before attempting snapshot creation for a Volume, ensure that the source LUN is not in any one of the specified states. 3.
Ensure that the Command View is actively managing the Array corresponding to the Volume for which the shadow copy creation is attempted. If not, the shadow copy creation will continue to fail. • Hardware Provider takes more than 10 seconds for shadow copy creation. When this happens, the following application event log message is displayed: P6000 - Shadowcopy creation failed since the operation exceeded '10' seconds.
