HP StorageWorks Enterprise Virtual Array File Services (EVA-File Services) adds high performance file
serving to the EVA4400 array. With EVA File Services the EVA4400 becomes a unified block and file
storage solution. It can serve both block and file data concurrently with high availability and scalable
performance. The EVA4400-File Services is supported by a powerfully simple suite of management
software making it easy for users to achieve high levels of productivity.
The EVA4400-File Services is designed for mid-range and enterprise customers wanting a single storage
solution for their block and file data, improved storage utilization, scalable throughput performance to
meet application specific demands for consistent high transaction I/O, easy capacity expansion,
instantaneous replication, simplified storage administration and high availability. Because the EVA4400
File Services can serve both block and file data concurrently with high availability and scalable
performance, customers can consolidate their individual silos of storage to gain flexibility, reduce IT costs
and complexity as compared to traditionally architected storage solutions.
The EVA4400 File Services supports both CIFS (windows) and NFS file serving. EVA4400 File Services is
delivered as an easy to install, easy to manage and easy to support solutions that helps customers lower
their TCO and minimize the complexity of their storage environment.
The EVA4400 File Services includes 2 File Servers nodes, redundant HP StorageWorks 4/8 Base SAN
Switches, 1 HP ProCurve Ethernet switch, 16 HP 4Gb Short Wave Transceivers, Ethernet interconnect
cables between the internal modules, FC interconnect cables between the internal modules, power cords
for all modules, and mounting hardware for all modules, installation and startup.

NOTE: EVA4400 File Services is factory integrated and requires the purchase of an EVA4400. NOTE: NOTE: NOTE:
HP SIM is the foundation for HP's unified server-storage strategy -- it is packaged as value add software
with EVA, it's a management application and is derived from the heritage of Compaq Insight Manager,
HP Toptools, and HP Servicecontrol. HP SIM runs on HP Windows, Linux, and HP-UX and provides
discovery and identification, fault management, security administration, asset reporting, and centralized
configuration management across heterogeneous servers, storage and infrastructure. HP SIM is easily
extensible, integrating other HP management products and value-add plug-ins such as the ProLiant
Essentials, Integrity Essentials, and Server Essentials.
HP SIM relies on industry standards like SMI-S, SNMP, SSH, WBEM, and WMI to detect and report
heterogeneous device attributes. HP SIM may also be configured to launch array specific applications for
configuration, reporting and replication. For more information on HP Systems Insight Manager see:

Single-pathing (or single HBA per host) support is provided for all supported operating systems (but may
be version dependent). Use of single-pathing, which does not offer a redundant path option, should be
used with care. Failure of the single HBA will result in loss of access for that host until the HBA is
replaced.
