1 EVA 4x00/6x00/8x00 hardware

This chapter discusses the hardware components in the Enterprise Virtual Array (EVA). The followingtopics are discussed:

• Storage rack• Fibre Channel drive enclosures• Fibre Channel loop switches• EVA8x00 HSV210-A/B controllers• EVA6x00 and EVA4x00 HSV200-A/B controllers

Storage rackRacks are available for the EVA storage system in 36U and 42U configurations. The storage rack canhold a maximum of 12 Fibre Channel (FC) drive enclosures and two controllers.

36U rackThe 36U rack is graphite in color and 1000 mm (39.4 inches) deep. The 19–inch (482.6 mm)industry-standard rack provides an enclosure for rack-mountable products with a height capacity of 36U.Perforated front and back doors are included, and 36U side panels and stabilizer kits are optional.

42U rackThe 42U rack is graphite in color and 909 mm (35.8 inches) deep. The storage rack features standard19–inch (482.6 mm) mounting rails. The 42U rack can support Enterprise Virtual Array configurationsthat include FC loop switches or expansion panels. Perforated front and back doors are included, and42U side panels and stabilizer kits are optional.

Fibre Channel drive enclosuresEach FC drive enclosure includes the following features:

• 3U drive enclosure• Dual redundant, active-to-active, 2–Gbps Fibre Channel loops• Fourteen 1–inch Fibre Channel disks per enclosure• Dual 2–Gbps Fibre Channel I/O module—A and B

• Enhanced fault detection• Small Form-Factor Pluggables (SFPs)

• Dual 500–W redundant hot-plug power supplies and fans

For ease of reference, the disk drives are usually referred to by their physical location in the drive bay.

Figure 1 shows the front and rear views of the FC drive enclosure and the physical location of eachdrive bay.

Fibre Channel loop switchesThe Enterprise Virtual Array uses FC loop switches to connect all of the drive enclosures to the controllerpair via copper cables. Each FC loop switch acts as a central point of interconnection and establishes aphysical loop topology.

Switch use:

• EVA4000/4100 does not use switches on any configuration• EVA6000/6100 uses switches on all configurations• EVA8000/8100 only uses switches with more than four disk enclosures

The storage system uses one of the following loop switches:

• 30-10022-01 loop switch—used with 2 Gb and 4 Gb controllers (required on EVA4100/6100/8100)

• 30-10010-02 loop switch—used with 2 Gb and 4 Gb controllers

CAUTION:When using the 30-10022-01 loop switch, ensure that there is no disk in bays 12, 13, and 14 inenclosures 17, 20, and 24. Slots 13 and 14 are assigned the same ALPA as the controllers and slot12 is assigned ALPA 4, which is taken by the 30-10022-01 loop switch. Failure to adhere to this rulewill disrupt storage system operation. HP also recommends that you keep three additional bays opento maintain the maximum device count of 120. For ease of use and consistency in configurations, HPrecommends keeping bays 12, 13, and 14 open in enclosures 16 and 19.

The major features of the FC loop switch are:

• 2.125 Gbps operating speed


• Twelve ports• Half-width, 1U size• System and port status indicators• An Ethernet port• Universal power supply that operates between 100 to 250 VAC (or 50 to 60 Hz)• SFP transceivers

EVA8x00 HSV210-A/B controllersTwo high-performance HSV210 controllers are included in each EVA8x00 rack. The EVA8000 controlleris identified as HSV210-A and the EVA8100 controller is identified as HSV210-B. Each controller iscontained in a separate enclosure and provides the following features:

• High-performance PowerPC microprocessor• An Operator Control Panel (OCP) for easy operation• 4U rack space required for both controller enclosures• Four 4–Gbps Fibre Channel-Switched Fabric host ports• Four 2–Gbps FC-AL device ports

• Arranged in redundant pairs• Data load/performance balanced across a pair• Supports up to 240 disks (120 disks per pair)

• 2 GB cache per controller, mirrored, with battery backup• 2 Gbps FC cache mirroring port with device port backups• Two mirror ports• Dual power supplies

The controller is the interface between HP StorageWorks Command View EVA and the EnterpriseVirtual Array (the interface between hosts and disks). Up to 18 drive enclosures are supported byone HSV210-A/B controller pair (two controllers).

Figure 4 shows the front of the controller. Figure 5 shows the controller rear view.

2 EVA8x00 configurations

This chapter discusses the standard EVA8x00 configurations. Each section describes the placement ofHSV controllers, drive enclosures, enclosure address bus shelf ID expansion cables, and copper FibreChannel cables.

NOTE:The configurations described in this guide are the preferred configurations. Other configurations may beused, but they should conform to the following:• Disk enclosures should be balanced across the two back-end loop pairs.• Use of enclosure ID 7 for disk enclosures is not allowed.

2C2D configurationsThere are two 2C2D configurations: the Storage-Centric (Figure 7) and the Multi-Product (Figure 9). Eachconfiguration provides a maximum storage capacity of 8.4 TB and can contain a maximum of 28 disks.These configurations are available in a 42U rack and have two HSV210-A/B controllers and two driveenclosures. The Storage-Centric configuration can be expanded (by adding drive enclosures) whileremaining online. The Multi-Product more easily allows multiple products to be racked with the EVA, butcan only be expanded by powering it down to make these expansion modifications.

Environmental specificationsTo ensure optimum product operation, you must maintain the operational environmental specificationslisted in Table 16. The ambient temperature (the enclosure air intake or room temperature) is especiallycritical.


Table 16 Environmental specifications

Operating Temperature 50° to 95° F (10° to 35° C) - Reduce rating by 1° F for each 1000 ft altitude(1.8° C/1,000 m)

Shipping Temperature -40° to 150° F (-40° to 66° C)

Humidity 10% to 90% non-condensing

Shipping Humidity 5% to 90% non-condensing

Altitude Up to 8,000 ft (2,400 m)

Air Quality Not to exceed 500,000 particles per cubic foot of air at a size of 0.5 micronor larger

Power specificationsThe input voltage is a function of the country-specific input voltage to Enterprise storage system rackpower distribution units (PDUs). Enterprise storage system AC input line voltages defines the AC inputpower available to the drive enclosure power supplies.

CAUTION:The AC power distribution within a rack ensures a balanced to each PDA and reduces the possibility ofan overload condition. Changing the cabling to or from a PDM could cause an overload condition.

B Low-voltage Japanese cabinets

General descriptionThis specification describes HP's requirements for low voltage EVA storage cabinets. These low voltagecabinets are configured with two redundant sets of PDUs in order to provide system required power. EachPDU set is limited to 2550 W at a minimum voltage of 108. Each PDU is limited to one power stripto limit the number of EVA component attachment to eight components per power PDU. Power stripadditions will likely overload the PDU systems.

Center of gravityTable 27 shows the center of gravity measurements for the 42U low-voltage cabinet. Table 28 shows thesame information for the 36U low-voltage cabinet.

The center of gravity of the assemblies is measured from the front mounting face of the vertical mountingrails, the top inside surface of the cabinet base, and the center of the cabinet (±1.5 inches).

Tip stabilityThe system must pass tip stability testing for a 10° tip test and 250N side-force tip test perCAN/CSA-C22.2 No. 60950-00/3rd Edition, Safety of Information Technology Equipment.

Results of tip and tilt calculations show that the testing of this configuration is not necessary. Center ofgravity locations, within the 10° boundaries show no danger of tip. Force tip testing calculations indicatethat the rear force tip test need not be performed.
