3 Remote access, monitoring, and set up completion This chapter describes basic administrative procedures related to remote access and monitoring and completes the setup procedures that were started in the HP ProLiant Data Protection Storage Server installation guide that comes with your server. Remote Browser This method of remote access allows you to place a DHCP-enabled storage server on a DHCP-enabled network and browse to the server.
Logging off and disconnecting Remote Desktop provides two options when closing a client: you can either disconnect or log off the system. Disconnecting leaves the session running on the server. You can reconnect to the server and resume the session. If you are performing a task on the server, you can start the task and disconnect from the session. Later, you can log back on the server, re-enter the session, and either resume the task or check results.

4 Storage management overview This chapter provides an overview of some of the components that make up the storage structure of the HP ProLiant Data Protection Storage Server. Storage management elements Storage is divided into four major divisions: • • • • Physical storage elements Logical storage elements File system elements File sharing elements Each of these elements is composed of the previous level's elements.
Physical Disks Single Server Cluster Implementation RAID Arrays Storage Elements Logical Drives Selective Storage Presentaion Visible Disks Logical Storage Elements Partitioning NTFS Volumes Q: File System Elements Shadow Copy Elements File Folders Shadow Copies (Snapshots) \Engineering \Marketing \Users \Sales \Engineering \Marketing from 02/10/03 09:30 \snapshot.0 R: from 02/10/03 09:30 \snapshot.0 from 02/10/03 11:30 \snapshot.1 R: from 02/10/03 11:30 \snapshot.
Arrays See Figure 17. With an array controller installed in the system, the capacity of several physical drives (P1–P3) can be logically combined into one or more logical units (L1) called arrays. When this is done, the read/write heads of all the constituent physical drives are active simultaneously, dramatically reducing the overall time required for data transfer. NOTE: Depending on the storage server model, array configuration may not be possible or necessary.
The table below summarizes the important features of the different kinds of RAID supported by the Smart Array controllers. The decision chart in the following table can help determine which option is best for different situations.
NOTE: This type of configuration may not apply to all storage servers and serves only as an example. Through the use of basic disks, primary partitions or extended partitions can be created. Partitions can only encompass one LUN. Through the use of dynamic disks, volumes can be created that span multiple LUNs. The Windows Disk Management utility can be used to convert disks to dynamic and back to basic, and manage the volumes residing on dynamic disks.
File sharing elements The storage server supports several file sharing protocols, including Distributed File System (DFS), Network File System (NFS), File Transfer Protocol (FTP), Hypertext Transfer Protocol (HTTP), and Microsoft Server Message Block (SMB). On each folder or logical storage element, different file sharing protocols can be enabled using specific network names for access across a network to a variety of clients.
5 Troubleshooting, servicing, and maintenance Troubleshooting the storage server The Support for your products task at the HP Support & Drivers web site (http://www.hp.com/go/support) can be used to troubleshoot problems with the storage server.
Maintenance and service HP provides specific documentation for maintaining and servicing your storage server and offers a customer self-repair program. Maintenance and service documentation For specific documentation for the maintenance and servicing of the DL380 server, refer to the HP ProLiant DL380 Generation 5 Server Maintenance and Service Guide. This document can be obtained at http://www.hp.com/support/manuals.
6 System installation and recovery This chapter describes how to use the System Installation and Recovery DVD that is provided with your storage server. The System Installation and Recovery DVD The HP ProLiant Storage Server System Installation and Recovery DVD allows you to install an image or recover from a catastrophic failure. The DVD is used initially to install and configure the operating system and applications provided with your storage server.
CAUTION: In order for user data to be retained on two-drive systems, the data volume must be a single, mirrored volume as initially configured by the factory. If you choose to restore only the operating system on two-drive systems, you need to manually recreate mirrors of your operating system and data volumes after the system is recovered and Windows boots. Instructions are provided when you log in.
A Network adapter teaming Network adapter teaming is software-based technology used to increase a server’s network availability and performance. Teaming enables the logical grouping of physical adapters in the same server (regardless of whether they are embedded devices or Peripheral Component Interconnect (PCI) adapters) into a virtual adapter. This virtual adapter is seen by the network and server-resident network-aware applications as a single network connection.
Figure 22 HP Network Configuration Utility Properties dialog box, before teaming 2. Highlight the NICs to team. 3. Click Team. Figure 23 HP Network Configuration Utility Properties dialog box, after teaming 4. Configure the team by clicking the Properties tab. The teaming options are discussed in the following sections.
5. Click OK to accept the team properties. 6. Click OK in the HP Network Configuration Utility Properties dialog box to apply the changes. Team Properties page The Team Properties page is displayed (see Figure 24) when the Properties tab is selected on the HP Network Configuration Utility Properties dialog box. The Team Properties page is used to manage and monitor all team-specific settings and consists of the following individual tabs.
Team type selection In the Team Settings section of the Team Properties page, you have the option of selecting several team types from a drop-down list box (see Figure 25). These team types allow flexibility in your networking environment. The sections below describe these team types. Figure 25 Team Properties page, Team Type Selection drop-down list box Automatic (Recommended) The Automatic team type is not really an individual team type.
Switch-assisted Load Balancing with Fault Tolerance (SLB) Switch-assisted Load Balancing with Fault Tolerance (SLB) is a team type that allows full transmit and receive load balancing. SLB requires the use of a switch that supports some form of Port Trunking (for example, EtherChannel, MultiLink Trunking, and so on). SLB does not support switch redundancy since all ports in a team must be connected to the same switch. SLB is similar to the 802.3ad Dynamic team type discussed later.
teamed port. In other words, if frame order preservation is desired, outbound load balancing by the team should be performed on a conversation-by-conversation basis rather than on a frame-by-frame basis. To accomplish this, the load-balancing device (either a team or a switch) needs information to identify conversations. Destination MAC address, Destination IP address, and TCP Connection are used to identify conversations (see Figure 26).
TCP Connection TCP Connection is also a load-balancing method that is designed to preserve frame ordering. This method will load balance outbound traffic based on the TCP port information in the frame’s TCP header. This load-balancing method combines the TCP source and destination ports to identify the TCP conversation. Combining these values, the algorithm can identify individual TCP conversations (even multiple conversations between the team and one other network device).
