HP 3PAR Virtual Copy Software
Overview
Built on thin copy technology, HP 3PAR Virtual Copy is a reservationless, non-duplicative, copy-on-write
software product that allows you to protect and share data from any application, affordably. Snapshots
are available on demand, instantly, in read-only and/or read-write form. With Virtual Copy, snapshots are
reservationless because capacity is never reserved up-front and non-duplicative since changed data is
never duplicated within the snapshot tree.
Coupled with consistency groups and support for hundreds of snapshots per base volume, Virtual Copy
efficiency delivers affordable, CDP-like rapid application recovery from multiple points in time. With a
single command, you can revert a base volume to any selected snapshot-without impacting other
snapshots in the tree. And when you delete a snapshot, this never affects peer snapshots.
Virtual Copy also integrates with HP 3PAR Autonomic Groups and HP 3PAR Scheduler-both features which
