Understanding HPE 3PAR Key Performance Metrics
HPE 3PAR is an enterprise-class storage array that delivers excellent performance if properly implemented. This blog covers the key metrics to help you understand the performance and health of your HPE 3PAR system.
Troubleshooting HPE 3PAR Front-end Port Saturation
Poor storage performance, as perceived by the host, is typically caused by either a poor front-end performance caused by a poorly performing/misconfigured storage array or congestion on the SAN fabric.
How to Accurately Forecast Storage Capacity Burn Rates
Accurately predicting storage utilization and consumption rate can be a challenge, especially in dynamic environments. Letting AI handle the manual report generation ensures up to date storage consumption predictions.
Cleaning up the SAN Fabric: Getting Your House in Order Part Two
Cleaning up SAN fabric zones and storage array masking views are often a forgotten part of good storage hygiene. Although unused zones and masking views may seem harmless, they pose an availability risk to your environment on multiple fronts.
Benefits of Storage Capacity Reclamation: Getting Your House in Order Part One
Unused volumes increase the likelihood of mistakes, can affect replication SLAs, can impact the cost of offsite storage, or may be stored on the wrong tier of storage.
