This white paper is intended to supply HP StorageWorks External Storage XP information. External/subordinated XP storage is an umbrella term that covers three separate usage models for when data will be managed through the HP StorageWorks XP12000 Disk Array but held on a separate physical storage product. Non-HA external storage LUs are for restricted use in that they are not as highly available as internal XP disk array disks. Therefore, this type of storage is highly recommended to be restricted to use with non-HA and non-performance applications, such as for BC XP SVOLs containing quickly accessible medical record archives.
