How HP helps recycle and dispose of used Original HP printer cartridges

HP Planet Partners ProgramThe HP Planet Partners Program ensures that all Original HP cartridges are recycled responsibly and that zero waste will be landfilled. More than 10,000 corporate customer sites and 2,000 consumer sites take back cartridges.

HP is the first in the industry to truly ‘close the loop’ in our ink cartridge manufacturing process. One way this is achieved is by using plastics from our recycling process to create new ink cartridges.

To help communicate this to your partners, here is the best way for your customers to efficiently dispose of their Original HP inkjet or LaserJet cartridges:

Small & Medium Business (relatively low volume users)Drop off used Original HP inkjet or LaserJet cartridges to one of the following collection centres:

• Australia Post• Dick Smith Electronics

• Harvey Norman• Officeworks

• JB Hi-Fi

Larger Enterprises (high volume users)Make a request for a pickup service from HP by clicking here

Target audience: Chief information officers (CIOs), chief technology officers (CTOs), IT directors, data center managers, and customers wishing to learn more about this complete solution package from HP.

Business case for virtualization Most of today’s IT spending is consumed by operating and maintaining the existing infrastructure, leaving little space in the budget for new investments that can add value. However, while it may seem obvious that these ongoing costs need to be reduced, the inefficiency and inflexibility of your infrastructure may provide few opportunities.

Key areas that may need to be addressed in your infrastructure include the following:

Resource utilization: Servers are often dedicated to individual applications, leading to massive underutilization of resources. Such servers can typically be virtualized and consolidated as can siloed storage.

Manageability: Giving each new application its own system configuration creates a significant management burden. When patches and upgrades have to be applied individually, it becomes difficult to automate such management tasks; thus, in order to simplify the environment, it is important to minimize the number of hardware platforms, operating systems, and system configurations.

Inflexibility: With a proprietary or monolithic infrastructure, it can be difficult to scale applications up or down, or provide any level of fault-tolerance. The inherent inflexibility of such an infrastructure also makes it almost impossible to implement the updates required to accommodate changing business needs.

However, with virtualization, a single HP ProLiant server can run multiple application instances in isolation as virtual machines (VMs). Automated tools can allocate resources (CPU, storage, and networking) to individual VMs, allowing them to scale up and down in tune with the demands of the particular workload. Moreover, since each operating system and application environment is stored on a virtual disk, you can easily copy this disk and create a new VM.

VMs are also highly portable and can easily be migrated to a new physical server (host) to support maintenance activities on the original host or to better balance the workload between hosts. This portability also allows you to quickly restart an application on a new host if the original host were to fail.

Additional benefits of virtualization are summarized below.

Executive summary HP VirtualSystem has been designed to address one of today’s number one priorities for IT organizations – reducing data center complexity. Pre-configured to meet a range of business needs, HP VirtualSystem offerings can be easily and rapidly deployed to support a variety of virtualized application environments. HP does all the work, using balanced building blocks of servers, storage, and networking, along with integrated management software and bundled support.

HP VirtualSystem delivers a best-in-class virtualized infrastructure, with integrated software, hardware, and services – all delivered as one proven solution. This paper outlines the design objectives for HP VirtualSystem VS3 for VMware and provides detailed information on solution components.

Figure 1 depicts the evolving HP VirtualSystem for VMware portfolio.

Figure 1. HP VirtualSystem for VMware offerings for a range of environments

Based on HP Converged Infrastructure, HP VirtualSystem delivers a broad range of benefits, including the following:

Simplified: HP VirtualSystem is an easy-to-order, complete, pre-configured infrastructure that has been designed for low-risk, rapid implementation. This solution also provides a single point-of-contact for end-to-end support.

Optimized: Performance-tested for typical workloads, HP VirtualSystem offers exceptional power and cooling efficiency, along with HP integrated management.

Flexible: Orders can be tailored to meet your particular needs (see Ordering options); upgrades are simple; and the solution can be scaled up or out1 to support future growth by adding server blades, blade enclosures, disk chassis, and/or disk magazines.

This white paper focuses on HP VirtualSystem VS3 for VMware, a multi-rack enterprise solution designed for large, demanding data centers and service providers. Optimized for storage scalability and performance, HP VirtualSystem VS3 for VMware is offered in a range of configurations (versions) to accommodate particular workloads (see Design objectives).
