HP StorageWorks XP24000/XP20000 disk arrays are large enterprise-class storage systems that are ideal for businesses that cannot afford downtime or losses due to data loss. XP provides a powerful platform with full hardware redundancy, hot-swappable components and non-disruptive online upgrades to significantly reduce the risk of downtime for businesses. At the same time, data replication and tightly integrated cluster solutions, as well as disaster recovery support, provide you with excellent multi-site disaster recovery design to help you achieve better business continuity. You can also reduce the risk of data loss by enhancing data protection and security features. XP24000 and XP20000 reduce the cost and complexity of data management through software combinations. Enterprises can use Thin Provisioning to provide storage capacity for multiple applications from a virtual pool, reduce power and cooling costs, and reduce the amount of unused storage that consumes power, cooling resources and space. As a virtual platform, XP can perform a variety of important functions, including heterogeneous data migration, array reuse and storage tiering. In addition, array partitioning can make high-value storage resources more reasonable. By allocating array resources to the corresponding applications and management programs, the partitioning function will improve the success rate of storage integration. At the same time, integrating multiple hosts running different operating systems into one XP will reduce the time spent managing different environments and simplify backup and disaster recovery solutions. In addition, you can automatically allocate resources on demand through Thin Provisioning, and use XP's smooth expansion function to accelerate business development. XP disk arrays allow you to provide employees with the business information they need anytime and anywhere.
The XP24000/XP20000 is a large‑scale, enterprise‑grade storage system designed for environments that cannot tolerate downtime or data loss. It provides full hardware redundancy, hot‑plug components, online upgrades, and advanced data‑protection functions such as RAID 6, continuous track monitoring, end‑to‑end verification and battery‑backed cache.
Thin Provisioning lets multiple applications share a virtual storage pool, reducing power and cooling costs while minimizing unused capacity. The array supports a wide range of host interfaces, operating systems and optional software for replication, migration and performance management. This manual is written in Chinese.
