HPE 3PAR 7400 Remote Copy

Autonomic configuration

With the HPE 3PAR Management Console, even multi-site DR can be set up and tested in just minutes, and from a single window. Built-in, autonomic configuration capabilities unique to 3PAR Remote Copy enable DR to automatically and intelligently configure itself. With just a few clicks, you can set up and test remote replication with HPE 3PAR StoreServ, or a combination of arrays at multiple sites.

Multi-protocol support

With Native IP as well as Fiber Channel (FC) support, 3PAR Remote Copy delivers out-of-the-box connectivity over your IP network, enabling you to replicate data more cost-effectively by leveraging your existing infrastructure. Achieve robust DR without the expensive converters and management of a separate, special-purpose infrastructure.

Host-independent replication

HPE 3PAR Remote Copy is a host-independent, array-based data mirroring solution that boosts performance by offloading host servers of replication tasks. HPE 3PAR Virtual Volumes (VVs) are mirrored from one HPE 3PAR array to another over variable distances using the mode of operation that best fits your needs.

Flexible, modular architecture

HPE 3PAR Remote Copy is supported on all StoreServ arrays (both high-end and mid-range), all of which are scalable to meet your precise requirements. This flexibility gives you the ability to implement right-sized systems that meet the unique needs of each location. No more purchasing and managing high-end arrays even in DR configurations where smaller mid-range arrays could suffice. HPE 3PAR Remote Copy also allows you to configure remote mirrors with different RAID properties from their source volumes so you can more precisely tailor protection levels and cost.

Balanced performance

HPE 3PAR Remote Copy's line-trunking capability simplifies data transmission by making the most efficient use of all configured network links. Data transfers are autonomically balanced across all links, thus avoiding bottlenecks. Line-trunking also increases availability by automatically rebalancing the load in case of a link failure.

Long Distance replication with zero data loss

HPE 3PAR Remote Copy offers a unique Synchronous Long Distance mode that allows you to meet low RTOs and zero-data loss RPOs with complete distance flexibility while saving on hardware.

Thin provisioning awareness

HPE 3PAR Remote Copy is "thin provisioning-aware", so target volumes provide the same cost and ease-of-use benefits as thin source volumes. With the combination of HPE 3PAR Thin Provisioning and HPE 3PAR Remote Copy, both primary and remote sites can share in the benefits of allocating volumes just once while consuming only necessary physical capacity. The result is unprecedented efficiency in data replication.
