2.3        OpenVMS Storage

2.3.1. MDS600 for Integrity c-class Blades                                                         

The HP StorageWorks 600 Modular Disk System (MDS600) is now supported on OpenVMS 8.3-1H1 on HP Blade Systems running within the rack. The MDS enclosure allows you to easily provision drives that appear as local storage for each blade server by a process known as &lsquo;zoning&rsquo;. Up to six MDS600 storage devices can be supported off a single Blade System enclosure for up to 420 TB of capacity. 

This MDS 600 SAS solution with zoning has therefore the following advantages:

&bull;   Good performance at low latency without the complexity of a SAN infrastructure

&bull;   Simplicity with faster deployments

&bull;   Easier management of the data on the storage device

&bull;   Tiered storage options where non-mission critical or tier II data can be stored

2.3.3  ABS Data Sheet

The new ABS Data Sheet may be found at http://h20195.www2.hp.com/V2/GetPDF.aspx/4AA2-5722ENW.pdf  at a glance, it gives you a clear understanding of the product&rsquo;s key features and what&rsquo;s the latest with this backup and archiving storage product.
