The Smart Array Advantage

• The innovative design of Hewlett Packard Enterprise and integration work within the Smart Array family of products creates customer value that is unmatched in the industry. Use of Smart Array products across multiple applications results in a much lower Total Cost of Ownership (TCO) than any other server storage RAID product. The HPE Smart Array family brings an unparalleled return on investment.
• Data Compatibility Data Compatibility with all Serial Smart Array controllers allows simple and easy upgrades any time needs for higher performance, capacity, and availability increase.
• Consistent Configuration and Management Tools. All Smart Array products utilize a standard set of management and utility software. These tools minimize Total Cost of Ownership (TCO) by reducing training requirements and technical expertise necessary to install and maintain HPE server storage.
• Pre-Failure Warranty Pre-Failure Warranty means Systems Insight Manager not only reports when a drive is going to fail but allows replacement of failing drives prior to actual failure. For complete details, consult the HPE Support Center or refer to your HPE Server documentation

Key Features

• Smart Array PCIe mezzanine card that connects to a HPE 6Gb/s SAS BL Switch through the c-Class enclosure high-speed mid-plane supporting shared SAS storage.

Fault Tolerance RAID Descriptions

Keeps data available and server running while a failed drive is being replaced; several fault tolerance configurations are supported including:

• RAID 6 (Advanced Data Guarding): Supported with a minimum of 4 drives. This allocates two sets of parity data across drives. This level of fault tolerance can withstand a double drive failure without downtime or data loss.
• RAID 60: Supported with a minimum of 8 drives. This volume is composed of two or more RAID 6 sub-volumes (parity groups) where data is striped across each parity group as if it were a single physical drive. Each RAID 6 parity group can sustain up to two drive failures without incurring data loss.
• RAID 5 (Distributed Data Guarding): Supported with a minimum of 3 drives. This allocates one set of parity data across drives. This level of fault tolerance can withstand a single drive failure without downtime or data loss.
• RAID 50: Supported with a minimum of 6 drives. This volume is composed of two or more RAID 5 sub-volumes (parity groups) where data is striped across each parity group as if it were a single physical drive. Each RAID 5 parity group can sustain a single drive failure without incurring data loss.
• RAID 1 & 10 (Drive Mirroring): Supported with a minimum of 2 drives. This allocates half of the drive array to the data and the other half to the mirrored data, providing two copies of the data.
• RAID 1 ADM & 10 ADM (Advanced Data Mirroring): Supported with a minimum of 3 drives. RAID 1 ADM creates redundant copies of the data using 3 drives. RAID 10 ADM stripes data across two or more sets of RAID 1 ADM volumes. This level of fault tolerance can withstand a double drive failure within a RAID 1 ADM volume without downtime or data loss.

NOTE: When the P711m is connected to the MDS600 configured with the HPE MDS600 Dual I/O Module Option Kit or to D2600/D2700 with dual domain SAS HDDs, there are multiple physical paths to each HDD, enabling the server to endure P711m port failures, switch failures, cable pulls, cable failures, and MDS600 IO module failures without interruption of normal storage I/O.
NOTE: See Enclosure QuickSpecs for descriptions of RAID levels specific to the HPE P2000 G3 Arrays at: https://www.hpe.com/h20195/v2/gethtml.aspx?docname=c04168365

Fault Recovery

Minimizes downtime, reconstructs data, and facilitates a quick recovery from drive failure

• Recovery ROM: This feature provides unique redundancy that protects from a ROM image corruption. A new version of firmware can be flashed to the ROM while the controller maintains the last known working version of firmware. If the firmware becomes corrupt, the controller will revert back to the previous version of firmware and continue operating. This reduces the risk of flashing firmware to the controller.
• On-Line Spares: There is no limit to the number of spare drives that can be installed prior to drive failure. If a failure occurs, recovery begins with an On-Line Spare and data is reconstructed automatically.

Ease of Use

Consistency and Upgradeability make the Smart Array family unique in the industry:

• GUI based configuration, management and diagnostic software tools
• Common data format between generations of products

NOTE: Hewlett Packard Enterprise recommends a maximum of 2 tape drives per 6Gb/s SAS BL Switch and 64K transfer sizes. Attaching a library with 4 tape drives requires purchasing a second tape library SAS cable (AN975A or AN976A) and attaching 2 drives to the redundant 6Gb/s SAS BL Switch. Attaching more than 2 tape drives per switch and transfer sizes greater than 64K could result in a failed backup or restore. A future release of firmware on the tape library drives will allow more than 2 tape drives to be attached to a switch.
