  • Page 30: Hpe Storevirtual Multi-Site San Design

    Network design—Good network design is a critical part of configuring a Multi-Site SAN to ensure reliability, high availability, and performance. Typical Multi-Site SAN configurations comprise two sites for StoreVirtual 3200 storage and support multiple network designs. • Data replication level—To protect the data across sites, you must choose a data protection level. The data protection level must have a number of mirrors that is equal to the number of sites in the configuration.

  • Page 31: Calculating Bandwidth

    Single subnet—Hewlett Packard Enterprise recommends using a single subnet. • Adequate bandwidth between sites—Plan for the appropriate amount of bandwidth for each storage system between sites. For instance if each site contains one StoreVirtual 3200 storage system, then you need at least 100 MB/sec throughput between sites. •...

  • Page 32: Managing The Network

    The StoreVirtual 3200 has multiple configurations available, including iSCSI and Fibre Channel transport types. The StoreVirtual 3200 is a dual controller array. The two storage controllers communicate with each other over a private communication path called the StoreVirtual Inter-Communication Link. There are no customer- based management interactions with this path.
