All StorageWorks D2D backup systems contain StoreOnce software. The D2D4312 delivers disk-based backup and restore capabilities and scales up to 48 TB, enabling clients to consolidate backup of multiple servers in a single process. Optional multisite replication functionality automates backups to a centralised location in the data centre.
Benefits of the D2D backup systems include improved deduplication performance by minimising disk fragmentation and the ability to scale and grow with a modular architecture that supports data centre backup as well as consolidated backup of remote offices. The solution also offers centralised and remote management with HP integrated lights-out for anytime, anywhere access.
The systems’ support for iSCSI, fibre channel, network attached storage or offline storage interfaces enables clients to easily deploy the D2D solutions into existing backup processes.
