Compaq SANworksTM Secure Path v3.0 for HP-UXTM
OVERVIEW
SANworks Secure Path v3.0 for HP-UX
Compaq SANworks Secure Path for HP-UX is multi-path, high availability software that manages and maintains continuous data access to Compaq
storage systems enabling no single point of failure from server to storage. SANworks Secure Path is host-resident software that monitors the data paths
between server and storage to increase availability of information. In the event that a path failure is detected, SANworks Secure Path fails over to an
alternative path. When that path becomes available, Secure Path can automatically failback to the original path. SANworks Secure Path for HP-UX can
also balance the workload among available paths to optimize system performance.
SANworks Secure Path v3.0 for HP-UX supports HP-UX hosts connected to StorageWorksTM MA6000, MA8000/EMA12000/EMA16000 and
RA8000/ESA12000 storage solutions..

No Single Point-Of-Failure
Multiple path failover capability and redundant components architecture eliminate single points-of-failure from server to storage in a clustered or single
server configuration. SANworks Secure Path v3.0 for HP-UX supports up to 32 paths per LUN.
High Availability
Fibre Channel storage controllers provide redundant paths for continuous 24x7 data access. Redundant physical connections define separate physical
"paths" in a SANworks Secure Path hardware configuration. Each path originates at an HBA port on the server and ends at a unique RAID controller port
in the storage system.
Performance
SANworks Secure Path v3.0 for HP-UX products provides load balancing across the available paths to optimize the performance of the storage
controllers.
Storage Consolidation
Two or more HP-UX hosts can share the same storage allowing maximum utilization of resources.
Event Notification
Learn about changes in the state of the paths via the console, email or syslog.
