Data sheet HP ConvergedSystem 200-HC StoreVirtual System Versatile storage for your virtualized environments Based on end-to-end HP and hypervisor innovation, HP ConvergedSystem 200-HC StoreVirtual System is a virtualization platform for VMware® vSphere that combines powerful compute, highly available storage, hypervisor, and management capabilities into a single, scale-out appliance. The compact 2U, 4-node form factor allows midsize business and enterprise remote office, branch office (ROBO) customers to virtualize a variety of workloads ranging from online transaction processing (OLTP) databases to virtual desktops. The CS 200-HC StoreVirtual Systems are production-ready in 15 minutes and can be used for any project where simplicity is key. It’s a software-defined data center (SDDC) in a box. Key features and benefits Management simplified •Designed from the ground up to simplify deployment of virtual infrastructure to support business-critical applications and virtual desktops •Features wizard-driven startup that enables complete deployment of virtualized compute and storage infrastructure in under 15 minutes •Centralized management of compute, storage, and virtual machines (VMs) from inside VMware vCenter Server assures that an IT generalist can manage the entire virtual infrastructure from a single interface without any specialized storage, server, or virtualization expertise •Pre-configured system and only requires the entry of IP addresses, credentials, and VMware vSphere license information to get up and running Virtualization optimized •Platform integration with VMware vSphere increases functionality and ease of use while application integration simplifies storage management for applications •Multiple clusters can be managed from the same console. Adding appliances to the cluster is quick and easy, with each additional appliance seamlessly adding the power of four servers and associated storage •Provides transparent VM failover across nodes, systems, and sites—bringing you worry-free protection in the event of a failure. Backup and recovery is equally easy with storage-based snapshots and HP Remote Copy integration with virtualization platforms and Microsoft ® Windows® applications Data sheet | HP ConvergedSystem 200-HC StoreVirtual System •With built-in HP Peer Motion, data volumes can be non-disruptively replicated and migrated from one CS 200-HC StoreVirtual to another, or to any x86-based server running any major hypervisor and HP StoreVirtual VSA software •Pre-configured dashboards help visualize system health and performance while optional VMware vCenter Operations Manager (vCOPS) delivers VM-level insight Hyper-converged •Features four individually serviceable servers in a 2U chassis with a choice between a hybrid, auto-tiering model with SAS and SSD storage to serve performance-and latency-sensitive workloads, or an all-SAS model to meet larger capacity requirements at a lower cost per capacity •With all you need in one box, the CS 200-HC serves both applications and data services with four times the compute in 75 percent less space1 •Provides scale-out flexibility to handle changing workloads while enabling simultaneous scale of server and storage resources •With over 1 million HP StoreVirtual licenses issued, millions of VMs running on HP ProLiant servers, and over 30,000 HP OneView for VMware vCenter downloads, customers can be confident that the CS 200-HC platform builds on proven virtualization expertise HP ConvergedSystem 200-HC StoreVirtual System Drive description (24) SFF SAS or (16) SFF SAS and (8) SFF SSD Drive type 1.2 TB 6G 10K SFF dual-port SAS 400 GB 6G SFF SAS SSD Capacity 28.8 TB max included 12 TB max useable Storage expansion options Use storage clustering capability and add incremental CS 200-HC StoreVirtual Systems into the array to expand storage Host interface 10GbE (8) ports and 1GbE (1) ports Compatible OS Microsoft Windows Server® 2012 Microsoft Windows Server 2008 R2 Microsoft Windows Server 2008 VMware ESXi 5.x Red Hat® Enterprise Linux® 6.0 SUSE Linux Enterprise Server 11 (AMD64/EM64T) Citrix® XenServer Microsoft Hyper-V VMware Clustering support Hyper-redundant clustered storage supported Availability Redundant power supplies, dual NICs, hypervisor clustering, storage clustering, active/active Thin provisioning support Thin provisioning Snapshot support Volume-level snapshots for VMs Replication support Stretch cluster and Remote Copy Management HP OneView for VMware vCenter Form factor 2U rack Warranty (parts-labor-onsite) 3 years parts-only (1-year software support) 1 2 As compared to four individual 2U servers Data sheet | HP ConvergedSystem 200-HC StoreVirtual System The total software package •Deploy and control easily using a simple management console •Scale storage performance and capacity linearly by simply adding more CS 200-HC StoreVirtual Systems (up to 8 in a management group) •Enhance performance benefits from flash with Adaptive Optimization auto-tiering feature on the CS 242-HC StoreVirtual System •Utilize Thin Provisioning for efficient storage utilization •Increase your data storage utilization by transitioning unused storage from a volume with Space Reclamation feature •Enhanced Cinder driver in OpenStack Icehouse release for the latest generation of StoreVirtual systems.
