V2X/V2X2 Shared Virtual Array disk system |
|
The StorageTek® V2X/V2X2
Shared Virtual Array® (SVA™) disk system enables you to
use 100 percent of the disk capacity you purchase for
Open Systems or mainframe data storage. It eliminates
the need for disk system over-purchase that is common
with conventional disk systems, which typically allow
you to use only 30 to 60 percent of capacity for data
storage. |

Applications |
Disk
mirroring
The V2X/V2X2 SVA disk system and Peer-to-Peer Remote
Copy (PPRC) can create remote synchronous mirrors
that secure data for rapid recovery in case of
severe data loss. |
Storage
consolidation
The V2X/V2X2 SVA disk system allows you to
standardize online storage across mainframe and Open
Systems environments. With Virtual Power Suite
software, more capacity is utilized, and
administration tasks are simplified with an
easy-to-use interface. |
Offline
data processing
The V2X/V2X2 SVA disk system and SnapShot software
make data copies readily available for offline data
processing and application development by
replicating data instantly while consuming little
capacity. |
Online
transaction processing
The V2X/V2X2 SVA disk system utilizes 100 percent of
available capacity, meeting high-throughput
application needs with less purchased capacity. High
availability capabilities like path balancing,
failover and synchronous mirroring work to keep
critical data available. |
|
|
Benefits |
Simplified storage management
Automatic macro management, intelligent self-tuning,
automatic media management and disruption-free
configuration changes simplify storage management,
saving time and resources. |
Higher
resource utilization
The V2X/V2X2 SVA system enables you to use up to 100
percent of the disk capacity you purchase for your
data. It can replicate data in seconds, with little
additional capacity. It eliminates the need for disk
system over-purchase and prevents wasted storage
capacity. |
Reduced
costs
With the V2X/V2X2 SVA system, you gain disaster
recovery and business continuity capabilities
without doubling or tripling disk expenditures. |
High-availability replication
The V2X/V2X2 SVA system provides for fast data
replication and recovery by copying and recovering
data sets and volumes in seconds, enabling enhanced
disaster recovery and business continuity. |
|
|
Features |
Instant
backups
With the addition of StorageTek® SnapShot software,
you can make instantaneous backups of your data.
SnapShot copies any volume/LUN or makes file copies
without using storage capacity. |
Virtual
Power Suite software
Use of the StorageTek® Virtual Power Suite™ software
enables you to copy, move and protect data with
unprecedented speed, eliminating thousands of I/Os
per second. |
Advanced
testing capabilities
Instant resets and simultaneous concurrent testing
reduce application development testing time. You can
test multiple iterations of an application with no
setup time and no additional physical storage. |
Automatic
macro management
The V2X/V2X2 SVA system’s automatic macro management
feature allows you manage a single-parameter storage
utilization, saving management time and resources. |
