Performance
PerformancePerformance
Performance Fibre Channel host connections provide up to 200MB/s bandwidth for each path. Dual mirrored port
write caching capability, with battery backed cache, maintains optimal availability while assuring data
integrity in the event of a failure.
Each HSV200-B controller (for EVA4100 Starter Kits, EVA4100/6100 configurations) has two Fibre
Channel host ports (four ports in a redundant pair of controllers) assuring the availability of bandwidth
for the most demanding applications. In addition, up to 4GB of cache per controller pair ensures high
performance.
Each HSV210-B controller (for EVA8100 configurations) has four Fibre Channel host ports (eight ports in
a redundant pair of controllers) assuring the availability of bandwidth for the most stringent applications.
In addition, up to 8GB of cache per controller pair ensures high performance.
Scalability
ScalabilityScalability
Scalability A storage management server can manage up to 16 EVA controller pairs (EVA 3000s, EVA5000s,
EVA4x00 Starter Kits, EVA4x00s, EVA6x00s and/or EVA8x00s) in any one fabric. An EVA controller pair
will support up to 256 host connections (up to 1024 HBAs).
The EVA4100 Starter Kits and EVA4100 will scale up to 56 disks (56TB using 1TB FATA disk drives, and
25.2TB using 450GB high performance disk drives).
The EVA6100 will scale up to 112 disks (112TB using 1TB FATA disk drives, and 50.4TB using 450 GB
high performance disk drives).
The EVA8100 will scale up to 168 disks in a single cabinet and with the addition of an optional utility
cabinet, an EVA8100 will scale up to 240 disks (240TB using 1TB FATA disk drives, and 108TB using
450GB high performance disk drives).
Configure to Order (CTO) options and the HP 10000 G2 Series Racks allow even greater server and
device integration, flexibility and scalability for the EVA4100 Starter Kits and EVA4100/6100/8100.
Data center managers can customize server, storage and back-up configurations as well as using the
residual cabinet U space to mount Storage Management servers, switches and have the peace of mind
that it is built with HP factory precision manufacturing. The EVA8100 2C2D, 2C6D, and 2C12D, now
allows customers to configure-to-order their new EVA8100 units from HP manufacturing.
