Features
All inclusive feature set enables enterprise functionality at an affordable price

⁍ Storage Clustering allows a customer to consolidate multiple storage nodes into pools of storage. All available capacity and performance is aggregated and available to every volume in the cluster. As storage needs increase the HP P4000 can scale performance and capacity on-line.


Superior availability and disaster recovery

⁍ HP P4000 SANs stripe and mirror multiple copies of data across a cluster of storage nodes, eliminating any single point of failure in the SAN. Applications have continuous data availability in the event of a power, network, disk, controller, or entire storage node failure.


Scalable performance

⁍ Avoid up-front cost and the potential performance constraints. Purchase only what’s needed today, then grow the performance, capacity, and redundancy of your HP P4000 SAN online as storage requirements evolve. Buying storage only when needed simplifies planning and relieves budget pressures.


Easy to manage SANs for virtualized environments

⁍ Multiple data centers and sites can be managed from an all inclusive “single pane-of-glass.” All of the HP P4000 SAN features are managed from the Centralized Management Console (CMC) for simple, easy-to-manage storage.
