AH062A - HP Storageworks Enterprise Modular Library E-Series 71e Ultrium 960 Tape Library

The HP StorageWorks Enterprise Modular Library (EML) E-series Tape Libraries provide reliability, scalability & manageability with robust data protection and investment protection in heterogeneous Storage Area Network (SAN) environments. The EML delivers superior data availability with protection against SAN event disruptions using the built in HP StorageWorks Extended Tape Library Architecture (ETLA). You can flexibly scale to 1515 TB compressed (2:1) storage capacity or 16.1 TB/hr compressed (2:1) throughput performance from rack-ready or factory racked configurations. Easily manage the EML remotely while simplifying complex environments with logical library partitioning. The EML delivers a centralized encryption key management solution through Secure Key Manager (SKM) & provides hardware encryption with the LTO-5 & LTO-4 Ultrium tape drives. The EML delivers value through highly reliable data protection, agility through modular scalability and simplicity through ease of management.

Manageability

• The EML library has been designed to ease the management burdens of data protection in your SAN. HP StorageWorks Command View for Tape Libraries Software provides remote management, diagnostics and configuration of all your HP EML Tape Libraries from across the room or across the globe.


Scalability

• The EML delivers flexible scalability from 71 to 505 slots for consolidating environments needing up to 1515 TB compressed (2:1) storage capacity. The number of drives and slots may be increased by the purchase of expansion modules bringing the library to 8 drives and 505 slots for maximum capacity.


Reliability

• The EML delivers superior data availability with protection against SAN event disruptions using ETLA. ETLA provides improved backup and restore reliability by intercepting rogue I/O requests from applications or new servers and prevents those requests from interrupting backup or recovery processes.


Security

• HP StorageWorks Secure Key Manager (SKM) reduces your risk of a costly data breach and reputation damage. It also improves regulatory compliance with a secure centralized encryption key management solution using HP LTO-5 and LTO-4 Ultrium Tape Drives in the EML Tape Library.
