whitepaper HP StorageWorks Secure Key Manager: Key Protection Best Practices2009-07-01 Hewlett-Packard (HP)
  The HP StorageWorks Secure Key Manager (SKM) provides a secure, centralized Encryption Appliance which is an LTO4 key management solution for data encryption environments, and merges seamlessly into an HP enterprise tape library configuration using encryption-capable HP StorageWorks LTO4 tape drives. Its user guide provides the necessary information for configuring the SKM, but users might have more in-depth questions about the capabilities and requirements for using the SKM in specific instances. The HP StorageWorks SKM Best Practices Guide will answer many of those questions and provide guidance as to how to keep SKM key management environment in optimal condition.

whitepaper HP System Copy Software for SAP With SAP Test Data Migration Server (TDMS)2009-07-01 Hewlett-Packard (HP)
  With this proof of concept, HP and SAP showed that by using HP StorageWorks System Copy for SAP software to create a stable point-in-time copy of the production system, and then using SAP TDMS software to extract a consistent subset of data from this point-in-time image, it is possible to create a new system that is not only a constant representation of production, but also achieve substantial savings on storage space (The exact amount of storage saved is dependent upon the configured TDMS parameters which determines the amount of data to select from the sender system based upon a specific time frame). The entire processes can be performed without any impact to the production system, or affect to the availability of the production system.

whitepaper HP StorageWorks 2000i G2 Modular Smart Array (MSA2000i G2) 700 Mailbox Exchange 2007 Storage Solution2009-07-01 Hewlett-Packard (HP)
  The information discussed in this solution brief highlights the tested performance results and configuration best practices for an Exchange server supporting 700 Exchange users. Testing was performed with the HP StorageWorks 2000i G2 Modular Smart Array using twenty (20) 146 GB 10K rpm SAS disks for Exchange database storage and transaction logs. The testing demonstrated that the storage subsystem was capable of supporting both the IOPS needed to support the 700 Exchange users as well as providing additional headroom. This paper is developed by storage solution providers and reviewed by the Microsoft Exchange Product team. The test results/data presented in this paper are based on the tests introduced in the ESRP test framework.

whitepaper HP StorageWorks 2000sa G2 Modular Smart Array 2,500 Mailbox Exchange 2007 Storage Solution2009-07-01 Hewlett-Packard (HP)
  This paper is developed by storage solution providers and reviewed by the Microsoft Exchange Product team. The test results and data presented in this paper are based on the tests introduced in the ESRP test framework. One should not quote the data directly for pre-deployment verification. It is still necessary to go through the exercises to validate the storage design for a specific environment. The ESRP program is not designed to be a benchmarking program and the tests are not designed to achieve the maximum throughput for a given solution. Rather, the program is focused on producing recommendations from vendors for the Exchange application. Consequently, the data presented in this paper should not be used for direct comparisons among the solutions.
