HP StorageWorks Business Copy VA Frequently Asked Questions
What is included with HP StorageWorks Business Copy VA Software Media Kit?
Each HP StorageWorks Business Copy VA software media kit includes:
• Software CD
• User’s Manual
• 50-GB License To Use (not combinable - 50 GB max)
• 90 days of telephone support
In addition, to cover all capacity-based license-to-use options for HP StorageWorks Business Copy VA, one (1)
support option is required.
How does HP StorageWorks Business Copy VA Licensing work?
In order to create HP StorageWorks Business Copy VA LUNs, a license must be obtained. Licensing is sold in
quantities of 500 GB, 1 TB and 5 TB. The total size for all HP StorageWorks Business Copy VA LUNs cannot
exceed the licensed amount for each virtual array.
HP StorageWorks Business Copy VA licensing is based on the total size of all parent LUNs being copied, not
the total array capacity. For example, in an array with total usable capacity of two (2) Terabytes, if you are
copying one (1) Terabyte of parent LUN data you must purchase a one (1) Terabyte HP StorageWorks Business
Copy VA license.
Note: Licenses cannot span multiple arrays!
Every VA7000 series array contains a 50-GB trial license. This is a permanent capability of the array and is
intended to allow the trial of the feature before committing to the purchase. The trial copy can be used for the
life of the product. This trial license is NOT additive.
IS HP StorageWorks Business Copy VA supported for MPE/iX
No. There are no plans to support HP StorageWorks Business Copy VA on MEP/iX.
HP StorageWorks Secure Manager VA
HP StorageWorks Secure Manager VA is an array-based software product that allows customers to create up to
128 secure World Wide Name connections for the VA7000 family array on up to 1024 secure LUNs per virtual
array. HP StorageWorks Secure Manager VA is fully integrated into and enabled through the HP Command
View SDM software interface.
HP StorageWorks Secure Manager VA is a storage software application that allows LUNs to be locked into
secure protected volumes by World Wide Names, ensuring that only authorized World Wide Names (WWN)
have access to restricted volumes. Permissions for each principal can be configured by volume within the
virtual array to read only, read/write, or no access. The HP StorageWorks Secure Manager VA software’s
supported configurations range from an entry-level single-server direct-connect environment up to a
homogeneous or heterogeneous clustered environment.

(WWN) while the array is online.
