What is the HP VTL solution?
VTL - allows 3rd party backup software to perform backup/restore to a disk-based ‘virtual tape/library’ over high-speed FC or IP SANs.
Emulates a large number of industry standard tape libraries and tapes drives from varying major vendors
The base system has the ability to support up to: 10 concurrent backup hosts 50 concurrent backup or restore sessions 50 virtual tape drives or 20 virtual tape libraries 100 virtual tape cartridges
The VTL can import / export to physical tape libraries The VTL solution can replicate data over IP to an independent
site

Customer Pain: Time Allocation
Customers increasingly say they spend too much time doing storage operations per week:
(in order of consumption)
1. Backup operations
2. Provisioning storage
3. Managing tape libraries
4. Managing storage networks
5. Volume and file management
6. Archiving/HSM
7. Capacity planning
8. Disaster recovery management/testing
9. Monitor storage array failures

Customer IT Challenges
Reliability Issues Experiencing backup/restore failures due to robotic failure or media error
Performance Issues Backup window is shrinking
the fastest tape drive (LTO) can perform backup @ 30 MB/s (with optimal compression)
Restore is MUCH too slow (less than half the speed of backup)
Manageability/Staffing Issues Difficult to partition and share large tape libraries Can not centrally manage backup resources (Tape Drives/Libraries) Need to provision virtualised tape drive/library to Backup Server over FC or IP
SAN
Availability Issues Need to maximize operating efficiency without compromising the investment in
existing backup software and policy
