Overview

Efficient Get thin and stay thin - Thin technologies unique to the HP 3PAR StoreServ family can reduce capacity
requirements by 50%. Purchase only what you need, as you need it so you can focus resources on growing
your business, not maintaining your storage. Additionally, the HP 3PAR ASIC with Thin Built In features an
efficient, silicon-based zero-detection mechanism. This unique hardware capability gives HP 3PAR
StoreServ Storage the power to remove allocated but unused space without impacting performance.
Data center virtualization - Increase virtualization return on investment. Double virtual machine density on
your physical servers, spend up to 90 percent less time managing your storage, and support your

Configuration

Step 2 - Choose Host Adapter
Host adapters can be ordered separately to be installed in the field or they can be factory configured into controller nodes. Host
adapter cards provide the array with additional FC ports or with 10Gb/sec iSCSI/FCoE ports. The additional FC ports can be used for
connection to hosts or used to connect to other HP 3PAR StoreServ Storage systems in a Remote Copy relationship. The iSCSI/FCoE
ports permit host connection in iSCSI and FCoE environments.
NOTE: FCoE functionality will be enabled in a later release.
HP 3PAR StoreServ 7000 Host Adapters
HP 3PAR StoreServ 7000 4-port 8Gb/sec Fibre Channel Adapter QR486A
HP 3PAR StoreServ 7000 2-port 10Gb/sec iSCSI/FCoE Adapter QR487A
Used in the Storage Base products (QR482A, QR483A, and QR485A) and the
Upgrade Node Pair (QR484A).
Because the Storage Base products and the Upgrade Node Pair include built-in FC
ports, the host adapter cards are optional.
QR486A and QR487A include one adapter card each. Adapters must be purchased
in pairs.
The QR486A includes (4) 8 Gb/s shortwave FC SFPs and the QR487A includes (2)
10 Gb/s SFPs.
Each node in a node pair (a node pair is composed of the two controller nodes in a
single 2U enclosure) must have the same number and type of adapters. FC and
iSCSI/FCoE adapters may not be intermixed in a node pair.
The 4 ports of the FC adapter can be individually configured to connect to a host
or to a remote array in an RC configuration.
The two ports of the iSCSI/FCoE adapter can be individually configured by the
user as iSCSI or FCoE (NOTE: FCoE functionality will be enabled in a later release).

Configuration

Step 3 - Choose Drive Enclosures
Add drive enclosures to expand the configuration and to add large form factor drives to the configuration. Drive enclosures can be
ordered separately for installation in the field, or they can be factory configured in a rack. Drive enclosures are optional. Because the
Storage Base products and the Upgrade Node Pair include small form factor drive bays, the minimum configuration does not require
any additional drive enclosures. For larger configurations, attach drive enclosures. Each drive enclosure includes 24 drive bays. The HP
3PAR StoreServ 7200 supports up to five (5) added drive enclosures. The HP 3PAR StoreServ 7400 supports up to nine (9) added drive
enclosures per node pair. The two drive enclosure types can be intermixed in a single array.
HP M6710 2.5 inch 2U SAS Drive Enclosure HP M6720 3.5 inch 4U SAS Drive Enclosure
Drive Enclosures
HP M6710 2.5 inch 2U SAS Drive Enclosure QR490A
HP M6720 3.5 inch 4U SAS Drive Enclosure QR491A
Each drive enclosure includes 24 drive bays, (2) IO modules, (2) 1m SAS cables,
(1) mounting rail kit, and power cables.
The M6710 2U drive enclosure provides 24 SFF drive bays arranged in a single
row.
The M6720 4U drive enclosure provides 24 LFF drive bays, arranged in four (4)
columns of six (6) slots each.
Minimum of zero (0) drive enclosures, maximum of five (5) attached to QR482A.
Minimum of zero (0) drive enclosures, maximum of nine (9) attached to QR483A.
Minimum of zero (0) drive enclosures, maximum of (18) attached to QR485A.
Drive enclosures are connected in daisy chains from the SAS ports of the
controller nodes.
The best practice is to balance the drive enclosures across the SAS ports,
remembering that the controller node enclosures include (24) drives attached to
the SAS port labeled DP-1.
The best practice when including LFF and SFF drive enclosures in the same array
is to arrange them in the rack so that all of the 2U enclosures that belong to one
node pair are together and all of the 4U enclosures for that node pair are
together. When connecting the backend SAS cables, intermix the M6710 and
M6720 enclosures on each SAS port.
With a four node configuration, the best practice is to attach the same number of
drive enclosures to each node pair.
To achieve highest availability in multi-enclosure configurations, configure a
minimum of two (2) enclosures per node pair for RAID 1, a minimum of four (4)
enclosures per node pair if RAID 5 is included, and a minimum of three (3)
enclosures per node pair if RAID 6 is included. Include enclosures containing node
pairs in the count with the M6710 enclosures.
Drive bays that are not filled with a drive must be covered with a drive blank to
preserve proper air flow.
If future capacity upgrades are expected, include enough Drive Enclosures so
that there are some empty bays in each enclosure after all drives are added.
Step 4 - Choose Drives
Configuration

Drives are orderable at the time the array is purchased, or can be added in the future when additional capacity is required. Unlike other
HP 3PAR StoreServ Storage systems where drives are sold in magazines of four, HP 3PAR StoreServ 7000 drives are sold as single
drives. Note that these drives are only compatible with the M6710 and M6720 drive enclosures.

HP M6720 3TB 6G SAS 7.2K 3.5in NL HDD QR500A
For each drive type installed in the array, the minimum recommended initial
quantity is
SSD and SAS performance HDDs - eight (8) drives* per node pair
Nearline HDDs - twelve (12) drives per node pair
Minimum upgrade quantity is 4 drives per node pair or 2 drives per enclosure,
whichever is larger. Best practice is to run Autonomic Rebalance (also known as
tunesys) after adding the drives.
RAID 6 is strongly recommended for Nearline drives.
All node enclosures must contain either zero (0) or an even number of drives. All
drive enclosures must contain an even number of drives, with a minimum of two.
Minimum raw capacity is 1.2TB per node pair.
A best practice is to add equal numbers of drives to all enclosures compatible
with the drive type being added.
With a four node configuration, the best practice is to attach the same number
and type of drives to each node pair.
Small Form Factor (SFF)-specific configuration practices
SFF drives may be loaded into the Storage Base enclosures, the Upgrade
Node Pair enclosure and the M6710 drive enclosure.
SFF drives must be loaded in pairs of identical drives, beginning with the
leftmost slot, slot 0, and filling to the right, leaving no empty slots
between drives.
Large Form Factor (LFF)-specific configuration practices
LFF drives may be loaded into the M6720 drive enclosure.
LFF drives must be loaded in pairs of identical drives starting at the
bottom of a column, leaving no empty slots between drives in the column.
Columns of drives in the M6720 enclosure must be of the same type (SSD
or NL) and, for HDDs, the same rotational speed. Drives of different types
may not be mixed in a single column. It is permitted to have empty
columns between columns containing drives. Different columns do not
have to contain the same number of drives.
An all LFF drive configuration is permitted, leaving the Storage Base
Enclosure empty.
SSD specific configuration practices
SSD-only configurations are permitted.
Configuration

Maximum of 120 SSDs per node pair.
The SFF and LFF SSDs allow the user to create SSD volumes that stripe
across SFF and LFF enclosures.
* 8 drives support RAID 1 and RAID 5. For RAID 6 choose 12 drives.
Step 5 - Choose Service Processor Implementation
The HP 3PAR Service Processor monitors the HP 3PAR StoreServ 7000 and enables remote monitoring and remote servicing of the
array. A virtual Service Processor is included free with the 3PAR Base Operating System. Each HP 3PAR StoreServ 7000 requires its own
Service Processor. The Service Processor can be installed on a VMware system (or Hyper-V system in a later release), provided by the
customer, meeting the following specifications.
VMware vSphere 4.1, 5.0, or 5.1
Server listed in VMware Compatibility Guide and with the following features
2GB RAM (minimum)
320GB free disk space
DVD ROM or DVD RW
1Gb Ethernet port
If a hardware Service Processor is desired, order the following product.

If an HP 3PAR StoreServ 7000 needs to be expanded into an adjacent rack, one 6 meter
SAS expansion cable kit is required for every node pair that must access drive
enclosures in the expansion rack. Each 6 meter SAS expansion cable kit contains four 6
meter SAS cables.
HP P6000 EVA 2 Meter Expansion Cable Kit AW566A
If an HP 3PAR StoreServ 7000 needs to be expanded within the same rack, but the new
drive enclosure must be located some distance from the nearest existing drive
enclosure within the same rack, one or two 2 meter SAS expansion cable kits is needed,
depending on configuration. Each 2 meter SAS expansion cable kit contains two 2 meter
SAS cables.
1 meter SAS expansion cable kit QR514A
The 1 meter SAS expansion cable kit is provided for cases where a shorter SAS cable is
required. Each 1 meter SAS expansion cable kit contains two 1 meter SAS cables.
NOTE: The 2-node Storage Bases and Upgrade Node Pair come with four 2 meter SAS
cables each and the 4-node Storage Base comes with eight 2 meter SAS cables. The
Drive Enclosures come with two 1 meter SAS cables each.
Step 8 - Choose Software
HP provides an extensive selection of features for HP 3PAR StoreServ Storage. All of the features available on the HP 3PAR StoreServ
10000 Storage system are also available on the HP 3PAR StoreServ 7000 Storage system, the result of a common architecture that
spans from small and medium businesses to the largest global enterprise. For convenient ordering, the 3PAR StoreServ 7000 provides
the features in Suites.
Two types of software licensing methods are employed with the HP 3PAR StoreServ 7000. Some software titles are licensed per
system, other titles are licensed by drive., frame-based licensing and drive-based licensing. With framesystem-based licensing one
license covers the whole array, independent of configuration or capacity. Drive-based licensing, in contrast, is licensed per installed
drive. A software title with drive-based licensing includes two Licenses to Use (LTU), a Base LTU that enables the software feature for
the system and a Drive LTU that licenses the use of one drive. For each software title, Ppurchase one Base LTU per title per array, and
one Drive LTU, up to a cap, for every drive, independent of drive type, that is installed in the array, independent of drive type. With just
one Drive LTU that is independent of drive type, the HP 3PAR 7000 drive-based licensing differs from other 3PAR arrays which have
different drive LTUs for each drive type.For the HP 3PAR StoreServ 7200 the Drive LTUs cap at 48. For the HP 3PAR StoreServ 7400 the
Drive LTUs cap at 168. After reaching the cap, you do not need to purchase any more Drive LTUs for that title.

HP Cluster Extension Software
HP Cluster Extension
Software- High
Availability
HP Cluster Extension Software (CLX) offers protection against application downtime
from fault, failure, or site disaster by extending a local cluster between data centers
over metropolitan distance. CLX reinstates critical applications at a remote site within
minutes or seconds after an adverse event. CLX integrates with the OS clustering
software (such as MS Cluster Service in Windows) and the remote mirroring software on
storage (such as HP Continuous Access software on P6000 EVA/P9000 and HP 3PAR
Remote Copy Software on HP 3PAR systems) to automate failover and failback
between sites. This dual integration enables the cluster service to verify the status of
the storage as well as the server cluster; thus allowing the correct failover and failback
decisions to be made which minimize downtime, and accelerates recovery without
human intervention. Thus the Cluster Extension Software can help customers achieve
'zero' RPO and RTO in minutes or seconds. For more information, including how Cluster
Extension Software is licensed, see

The HP MPX200 Multiprotocol Router provides support for P10000/3PAR F/T/V-Class, including 1GbE iSCSI and 10GbE iSCSI and FCoE
target support. MPX200 iSCSI provides an alternative option for P10000/3PAR if you don't want to dedicate native iSCSI ports on your
array. The MPX200 also facilitates the sharing of iSCSI/FCoE connectivity simultaneously for P10000/3PAR from the same MPX200.
For Data Migration the MPX200 provides high performance migration from P6000/EVA to P10000/3PAR and simplifies Data Migration
from third party storage such as IBM and EMC to 3PAR.The MPX200 is an ideal solution enabler for P10000/3PAR customers.
