whitepaper HP StorageWorks 9100 Extreme Data Storage System: Solution Brief2008-05-01 Hewlett-Packard
  Digital content growth is starting to create real challenges for IT managers these days. Between increasingly complex software applications and increasingly powerful capture devices, the size of the average file at most companies is growing, and the need for more storage is becoming increasingly urgent. The Extreme Data Storage System is a single system that solves the storage-density, pricing, manageability, and performance challenges companies are facing today. HP Extreme Data Storage represents an extreme commitment to scalable capacity and performance. The base configuration provides three highly available storage blocks with 246 TB of raw capacity out of the box. But that is just the beginning.

whitepaper Best Practices for Clustered NAS File Serving Using ProLiant Storage Servers and the EVA41002008-05-01 Hewlett-Packard
  Regardless of size, companies require file-serving solutions that are both manageable and highly available. HP ProLiant storage servers combined with HP StorageWorks 4100 Enterprise Virtual Arrays (EVA4100s) offer a single, centralized platform to manage and protect data and provide high availability using cluster and snapshot technology. The HP Customer Focused Testing (CFT) group tested three storage and cluster configurations to determine the best practices for configuring, managing, and enhancing the performance of Network-Attached Storage (NAS) systems. The goal of this paper is to help system administrators deploy and operate a clustered, 1,500-user, file/print server environment that uses Microsoft's Volume Shadow Copy Service, which is also known as Volume Snapshot Service or VSS.

whitepaper Massively Scalable NAS - Pre-Empting Tomorrow's Data Overload With Today's Technology2008-05-01 Enterprise Management Associates
  NAS has always been simple?unless IT managers wanted to grow their NAS storage significantly. Then the simplicity evaporated. With massive storage build-outs a necessity, a simply managed, highly scalable NAS environment is a must. For the first time, storage administrators are thinking in terms of managing petabytes of data. Fortunately, new technologies make such systems available even to IT shops with limited budgets. Smaller firms as well as large enterprises can scale their storage to meet demands, and can align their storage investment to accommodate a need for more storage, for faster storage, or both.

whitepaper Privacy-Preserving Audit and Extraction of Digital Contents2008-04-30 Hewlett-Packard
  A growing number of online services, such as Google, Yahoo!, and Amazon, are starting to charge users for their storage. Customers often use these services to store valuable data such as email, family photos and videos, and disk backups. To make storage services accountable for data loss, this paper presents protocols that allow a third-party auditor to periodically verify the data stored by a service and assist in returning the data intact to the customer. The solution removes the burden of verification from the customer, alleviates both the customer's and storage service's fear of data leakage, and provides a method for independent arbitration of data retention contracts.

whitepaper IBM System Storage DR550 Externalizing Diagnostic Data2008-04-29 IBM
  The IBM System Storage DR550 (hereafter referred to simply as the DR550) has been designed to allow it to comply with regulatory requirements. As a result of this, facilities such as ftp that might be used for sending diagnostic data to service organizations cannot be used. The question then for customers and service organizations is how to externalize or get necessary diagnostic data, example: AIX error logs, out of the DR550. This paper provides a recommended method for externalizing diagnostic data. This method uses the DVD-RAM drive, which comes standard with all current and recent models of the DR550. The media on which the data will be written must be a DVD-RAM disc.   
whitepaper Managing SharePoint in an Enterprise Environment2008-04-29 Global Knowledge
  Planning is a very important part of any project. Without a good plan, you could find yourself without essential components, leaving you with a poorly performing infrastructure that is hard to manage. Microsoft Office SharePoint Server 2007 and other SharePoint technologies are excellent tools for a modern, web-based office environment. This white paper will show you how, through proper planning and implementation, it can be a high-performing, easy-to-maintain platform that will grow with your needs.

whitepaper CACTI 5.12008-04-02 Hewlett-Packard
  CACTI 5.1 is a version of CACTI 5 fixing a number of small bugs in CACTI 5.0. CACTI 5 is the latest major revision of the CACTI tool for modeling the dynamic power, access time, area, and leakage power of caches and other memories. CACTI 5 includes a number of major improvements over CACTI 4. First, as fabrication technologies enter the deep-submicron era, device and process parameter scaling has become non-linear. To better model this, the base technology modeling in CACTI 5 has been changed from simple linear scaling of the original CACTI 0.8 micron technology to models based on the ITRS roadmap.

whitepaper The Next Generation Mass Storage Stack: HP-UX 11i V32008-04-01 Hewlett-Packard (HP)
  HP-UX 11i v3 introduces a new representation of mass storage devices called the agile view. The central idea of the agile view is that disk devices and tape drives are identified the actual object, not by a hardware path to the object. Paths to a device can change dynamically, and multiple paths to a single device can be transparently treated as a single virtualized path, with I/O distributed across those multiple paths. This representation increases the reliability, adaptability, performance, and scalability of the mass storage stack, all without the need for operator intervention. This paper discusses the next generation mass storage subsystem in HP-UX 11i v3.
