When proposing a StoreOnce solution to a customer transitioning from tape backups, it's crucial to correctly size the deduplication requirements. OCA (Outcome-based Capacity Analyzer) is the recommended tool for this purpose. OCA helps to predict and size the deduplication storage needs by analyzing the data types and patterns, ensuring that the StoreOnce system is correctly configured to handle the customer's backup workloads efficiently.

The HPE MSA 2050 comes with a base set of features, including the ability to create up to 64 snapshots. However, for customers who require more extensive snapshot capabilities as their data services grow, the Advanced Data Services Suite license is the appropriate solution. This license extends the functionality of the MSA, including an increase in the number of snapshots that can be created and managed, thus addressing the customer's concerns about future growth.

When configuring high availability with HPE Primera and 3PAR arrays using RMC (Recovery Manager Central) Peer Copy, there are specific prerequisites that must be met:

2-port 10 Gb Ethernet Adapter (NIC): Each array must be equipped with a 2-port 10 Gb Ethernet Adapter to support the high-speed data transfer required for Peer Copy operations.

RMC 6.2: The customer must have RMC version 6.2 or later installed, as this version includes the necessary features and enhancements to support Peer Copy between Primera and 3PAR arrays.

These prerequisites are crucial to ensure seamless integration and optimal performance when setting up high availability between the two storage arrays.

For accessing StoreOnce VTL (Virtual Tape Library) targets from Veeam, the recommended protocol is FC (Fibre Channel). FC provides the high throughput and low latency necessary for backup operations, making it ideal for environments where speed and reliability are critical. StoreOnce VTL supports FC as a primary protocol for integrating with backup applications like Veeam.

In StoreOnce Gen4 systems, certain features are included with the system software without requiring additional licenses:

Catalyst: HPE StoreOnce Catalyst is included and provides advanced data reduction and deduplication capabilities, as well as integration with backup software.

VTL/NAS replication: This feature allows replication of Virtual Tape Libraries (VTL) and NAS shares between StoreOnce systems, ensuring data protection and disaster recovery, and it comes standard with the system software.

These features enhance the StoreOnce system's functionality, providing value without additional costs.
