SmartClone technology is based on the space-efficient SAN/iQ Thin Provisioning architecture, and
the volume clones can be used without limitation along with all other SAN/iQ features like Network
RAID, Thin Provisioning, Snapshot, and Remote Copy. The feature works by taking any volume or
snapshot and making one or many clones in an instant. The cloning function makes a permanent,
read/write volume on the SAN, pointing back to the original volume's blocks instead of duplicating
the blocks. By managing each clone as a pervasive volume, SmartClone eliminates any requirement
for a volume, snapshot, or any of its predecessors to exist after the clone has been created, and also
eliminates the need to run de-duplication software, because there are no duplicate blocks. The
clone shares the original volume's blocks and uses copy-on-write semantics. SmartClone
technology reduces storage costs and increases overall storage efficiency. Administrators can store
"gold-master" system images on the SAN for virtual desktop and boot-from-SAN implementations,
and quickly provision test environments using real production data. To simplify management,
administrators can view all of the relationships between clones, volumes, and snapshots graphically
in the Control Management Console.
SmartClone technology leverages application integrated snapshots to enable Microsoft VSS
applications to be cloned in a quiesced state, providing easier application testing and recovery.
Centralized Management Console
The entire HP P4000 SAN is managed from the SAN/iQ Centralized Management Console (CMC). An
administrator simply connects via the IP network to the storage nodes. Multiple data centers and
sites of storage can be managed from a "single pane-of-glass" no matter where the nodes are
physically located. The CMC also includes an integrated Performance Monitor providing
administrator with detailed, real-time metrics and the ability to export statistics. All of the SAN/iQ
features are managed from the CMC for simple, easy-to-manage storage.
The SAN Status Home Page provides a single view of the entire storage environment. Critical
information such as Alerts and utilization is displayed for all Management Groups in a single pane of
glass.

HP LeftHand Virtual P4000 SAN Appliance Software (VSA)
The HP LeftHand P4000 Virtual SAN Appliance Software (VSA) is a Virtual Appliance that provides
complete SAN functionality for VMware Infrastructure or Microsoft Hyper-V without external SAN
hardware. By virtualizing the internal disk capacity of the server running ESX or Hyper-V, the VSA
Software eliminates the need for external shared storage required to implement advanced
hypervisor features
Multiple VSA's running on multiple servers create a clustered pool of storage with the ability to
replicate data across the hosts allowing volumes to stay on-line in the event of a server failure
Small to medium businesses and remote office customers can lower their IT infrastructure costs
and enable higher levels of protection for business critical systems without the purchase of
additional hardware
VSA Software deployed at remote sites are managed as virtual storage nodes using the same
Centralized Management Console used to manage your HP P4000 G2 SANs
1 year 9x5 software phone support and software upgrades included
New Zero-to-VSA Automated Install and Deployment tool allows for fast and easy deployment of
virtual SAN environments including scripting for ROBO/branch installations with ESX/ESXi.
