Product Description
The HP 6Gb SAS BL Switch for HP BladeSystem c-Class enclosures is an integral part of HP direct connect SAS storage, enabling a shared SAS storage solution. The SAS architecture combines a P711m, P712m (with cache module) or P721m Smart Array in each server and 6Gb/s SAS BL switches connected to supported HP storage enclosures for SAS storage. The 6 Gb/s SAS BL Switch contains an embedded Virtual SAS Manager (VSM) GUI & CLI interface used to zone, monitor, and update SAS fabric devices What's New - Support for HP Smart Array P721m Controller and MDS600, D2000 (D2600/D2700) and D6000. (Requires firmware upgrade, please refer QuickSpecs) - SAS fabric Topology View allows users to easily view their SAS fabric connectivity - View unzoned hard drive information (capacity, RPM, link rate, etc.) while creating zone groups - Advanced tape support - port splitting allows up to 4 tape devices to attach to a single SAS switch port - SAS switch web interface allows the capture and deployment of configuration scripts - Full SNMP support for SAS switch and attached storage enclosures. Detailed diagnostic information provided for MDS600 field issues More External Storage for c-Class Enclosures - Enables servers within the c-Class BladeSystem enclosure to share storage on an P2000 G3 SAS array system, without the need for an external SAN infrastructure. Increases storage utilization, flexibility, and enables full virtualization without a SAN. - Or use the flexible SAS architecture for cost-effective in-rack zoned storage using the MDS600 or D6000. MDS600 or D6000 drives are assigned to specific blade servers so they appear as local storage to that server. - Dual Domain direct attached SAS architecture supported with MDS600, D6000 or D2000. - 6 Gb/s SAS performance, without the infrastructure expense. Not all data requirements need the top performance and availability of a backend Fibre Channel SAN. Simplified Management - Centralizes control and reduces storage management cost. Management tools and software included in the price. - Use the Virtual SAS Manager (VSM) 6Gb/s SAS BL switch to dynamically assign drives to each BladeSystem server, on the fly, without complex configuration or re-cabling. - Highly Available, Cost-effective External Storage - Redundant SAS switches are active, if one fails the second takes over the entire workload.
