Storage Management White Papers

HP StorageWorks Mid-Tier Consolidation

Overview This paper presents an HP storage consolidation technical blueprint for building mid-tier storage solutions. Technical blueprints are the second tier of HP solutions blueprints, with the business blueprints being the first tier. Using this blueprint, customers can consolidate their storage into a shared and centrally managed pool that makes more efficient use of their storage. Storage management can be done system wide from a single management station. In addition, the management tools allow easier and more efficient tape backup procedures. As a result, customers realize reduced IT administration expense, higher system availability, and better support for their Service Level Agreements (SLAs).
