Supported backup topologies
The HP P6000 Enterprise Virtual Array integration can be used in different backup topology scenarios without any
user interference or special configuration:
• One application system, one disk array, one backup system
• One application system, multiple disk arrays, one backup system
• Multiple application systems, one or multiple disk arrays, one backup system
• Single system (filesystem, disk image and Oracle backup only)
The HP P6000 Enterprise Virtual Array integration is not supported on the following backup topology scenarios on
Linux:
• One application and backup system, one or multiple disk arrays. Due to Linux LVM design and its
dependency on UUIDs, single-host BC configuration is not possible with LVM objects.
For cluster support related information, please refer to HP Data Protector 6.20 Zero Downtime Backup
Administrator’s Guide.
For details on supported versions of clustering software, please see HP Data Protector 6.20 Platform and Integration
Support Matrix.
