Why do you buy and use 3PAR storage?

“….Everything is much easier to configure, and better yet - change after the fact. Changing from raid 5 to raid 6 to raid 10 is a simple click for an area. The AO module (Adaptive Optimization) tools to move hot segments to SSD disk, and low utilization segments to SATA, while leaving everything else on FC SAS drives is very nice. Big selling point to me on this server is that fact that I can tune this box easily to take advantage of AO by adding on in the areas I need. Need more high end storage for the hot stuff? Buy more SSD. Need more fast storage for databases? Bu y more SAS disks. Need more low demand storage (general file areas for users, etc)? But more inexpensive SATA space. This is it, I love a system that I can change the performance/sizing personality of as my needs as time goes on. Why? I really can't absolutely predict whether my company's needs will change drastically in one area or other other in the next 5 years - I can only guarantee they will; and with that I wanted a platform that can change easily for us. So, our future is currently on 3PAR….”

3.1.3 Remote Copy “M by N” replication


4 x 4 Multi-Array DR across high-end and mid range Greater Fan-In and Fan-Out Flexibility for better data center efficiency

Challenge: Adding a new mission critical application requires storage resources to replicate its data.

Solution: 4x4 bi-directional fan-in/fan-out accommodates use of existing 3PAR StoreServ devices as replication target

4:4 Configuration Any 7000 or 10000 array

Don’t need dedicated infrastrcuture for 1 to 1 replication

Flexibility/efficiency

Not bound to 1 to 1 sharing

Enterprises love it – once you have the systems in place – you can use

Remove overhead of dedicated pairs

Benefit: Don’t need to buy and manage new devices HP 3PAR StoreServ 7000 1st mid range array to offer this Tier 1 Capability


Example: M by N Replication

One of the many possible configurations with 4x4 support that is supported now with OS 3.1.3

Now Supported!


New: 2x2 Replication – With All 2-node-only systems

• If all of them are 2-node systems, only 2 fan-in and 2 fan-out are possible

• A 2-node system can however be a part of 4x4 configuration, as long as fan-in and fan-out for that 2-node system is limited to two

• Previously, this example would require 4 node systems


3.1.3 Peer Motion


Peer Motion Peer Motion

Recap: Data mobility to manage SLAs at a datacenter level

Priority Optimization

Adaptive Optimization

• Move workloads to the right resource

• Manage service levels at a datacenter

SCALE COST PERFORMANCE


Enhanced: HP 3PAR Peer Motion

Easier to use

No need to manually unzone volume paths from the source array anymore

Broader coverage of supported host environments • Windows 2012 R2

• VMware vSphere 5.5

• Support for Red Hat and SLES Clusters

On demand load balancing

Granular, single volume level migration (vs. all volumes attached to a host) enables individual applications to be migrated

Allows customers to migrate their hosts at their convenience and not per host

Non-disruptive migration for Windows and Red Hat Cluster environments

• Windows (2008, 2012) cluster environments

• Linux (RHEL, SLES) cluster environments

Allows customers to migrate their cluster environments without any application outage

Primary Path Secondary Path


3.1.3 Priority Optimisation (Quality of Service)


Assure Service Levels with Priority Optimization

QoS Controls

Max threshold: IOPS, BW

NEW: Min Goal: Latency, IOPS, BW

NEW: Relative Priority: High, Medium, Low

Configurable by Application and Tenant

Use Cases for Virtual and Cloud Data Centers 1. Protect mission critical applications

2. Deliver predictable service levels on shared array

3. Assure service levels for Premium Tier

4. Deliver Bronze service level for low-cost tenants

5. Consolidate test/dev on production system

All numbers are pre-final:

• 4K Random Read Workload

• 0% Cache hits

Extending “massive parallel architecture” to processor cores

With 3.1.3, SAS backend interrupts are handled better by multiple CPU cores

• Better load balancing

3.1.3 SSD / Flash Wear Level Optimizations


Optimizing SSD Wear leveling and increase drive endurance

New: Adaptive Spares

Adaptive Spares leverages HP 3PAR chunklet virtualization technology to extend the overprovisioning pool of flash media to also enable greater longevity of flash-based .

SSD Spare Chunklets space is returned

to the SSD Overprovisioning pool so it can be used for wear leveling. This space will be claimed back when spares are needed.

Adaptive Sparing leverages UNMAP to convert Spares space to Free Space, to be used by drive FW to increase overprovisioning


3.1.3 Persistent Ports


• No user intervention required

• In FC SAN environments all paths stay online in case of loss of signal of an FC path, during node maintenance and in case of a node failure

• For FC, iSCSI and FCoE deployments all paths stay online during node maintenance and in case of a node failure

• Server will not “see” the swap of the 3PAR port ID thus no MPIO path failover required

Enhanced: Persistent Ports for iSCSI and FCOE Path loss, controller maintenance or loss behavior of 3PAR arrays

Any path loss is handled by 3PAR Persistent Ports

all server paths stay online

A controller maintenance or loss is handled by 3PAR Persistent Ports for all

protocols all server paths stay online

Enhanced: Persistent Ports resiliency (FC)

Challenge • Host multipath failover dependency upon loss of connection

between SAN fabric and storage controller

– Risky: Exposure to Host Multipath SW misconfiguration, latent failures

Solution • Switch Fabric-to-Storage controller port connection to a partner port

Advantages • No host path disruption during planned maintenance

• NEW: Protection against port laser loss (e.g. cable pull)

• Supported on midrange arrays!

3.1.3 Adaptive Optimization


Enhanced: AO latency spikes during region move activity

Current block and VV-LD map switch scheme can be disruptive for active I/O.

3.1.3 will be able to do region moves with minimal amount of I/O disruption

Other region move activities (compact cpg and tunevv) that touch LD regions behind the same node will also benefit from this new implementation


Example: AO block-less move : performance benefit
