What if my file serving needs are growing rapidly or I
need more scalability in my solution?
HP has a complete product line to meet your needs from
SMB to Enterprise level file serving. The Enterprise File
Services Clustered Gateway product scales your file
serving needs from 2 to 16 nodes with a linear increase in
file serving performance. Utilizing a clustering technology
that is built upon a fully symmetrical file system this product
provides scalability, high availability and an industry
leading price/performance value. The CGW is based
upon either Linux (SLES9) or Windows (WSS2003)
as a base OS. For further information see

How does HP OpenView Storage Mirroring (OVSM)
increase the availability of data?
OVSM is a cost-effective software solution that replicates
data at a file/byte level and continuously monitors data to
replicate only the file changes. It gives you:
• An effective disaster-recovery strategy—replicating data
from multiple servers off-site
• Centralized backup—reducing the need to work with live
production data and dependency on a backup window
• Automatic or manual failover capabilities—enabling
business continuity and data availability in the event of
a disaster
• A means of integrating dissimilar servers and storage
arrays
