Benefits
Gain the benefits of an array without requiring a physical storage infrastructure by virtualizing
storage resources on a server
Same enterprise level storage features and full interoperability (incl. Peer Motion) with
HP StoreVirtual 4000 Storage
Take advantage of hypervisor advanced features such as vMotion and Live Migration without
purchasing external storage system
Create a storage pool which is available to hypervisors and other applications via iSCSI
Leverages storage resources in the server saving money, space, power, cooling and
managing another system
Enables super-efficient configurations in terms of power, cooling, and space requirements
Comes complete with all storage management features - no additional software to purchase
Easily build a clustered, highly available array without buying hardware and software
Utilize internal (SATA, MDL, SAS, SSD, PCIe Flash) and external (iSCSI, FC, SAS) storage options
supported by VMware vSphere or Microsoft Hyper-V as back end storage
Enables a DR solution for remote or branch offices that do not have budget, space, or power for
servers and a traditional array

Storage Clustering simplifies scalability
Storage Clustering allows a customer to consolidate multiple StoreVirtual VSAs into pools of storage. All available capacity and
performance is aggregated and available to every volume in the cluster. As storage needs increase, the HP StoreVirtual can scale
performance and capacity on-line.
Network RAID delivers new levels of data availability
Network RAID stripes and protects multiple copies of data across a cluster of storage nodes, eliminating any single point of
failure in a StoreVirtual cluster. Applications have continuous data availability in the event of a disk, server, storage subsystem,
power, network, or site failure. Choose the right Network RAID level for each volume in the cluster based on capacity and
performance needs.
Thin Provisioning reduces costs by increasing storage efficiency
Thin Provisioning allocates space only as data is actually written without requiring pre-allocation of storage. This raises the
overall utilization and efficiency of HP StoreVirtual Storage, reduces costs and ultimately increases the ROI.
Application Integrated Snapshots for VMware and Windows simplify data protection
Snapshots create thinly provisioned, instant point-in-time copies of data on a per-volume basis. Administrators access
snapshots to recover individual files from the volume, or rollback an entire volume. Built-in application integration provides
automated quiescing for VMware and Hyper-V VMs and Microsoft VSS applications.
Remote Copy reduces costs for disaster recovery
Remote Copy replicates snapshots between StoreVirtual VSAs and StoreVirtual Storage arrays at primary/remote locations.
