HP EVA Maintenance

Support for your HP EVA array

With the HP EVA StorageWorks Enterprise Virtual Array (EVA) you get enterprise-level storage arrays with a virtualised architecture and built-in thin-provisioning. The HP EVA meets the majority of organisations storage budgets and will also provide simplified storage management. A storage system that is simple to administer saves management time and money, and reduces configuration errors and if you implement best practices and good housekeeping rules, can reduce errors and further unnecessary expense. 

Typical best practices for optimum availability, performance, and cost are only recommendations and not strict requirements as each organisations IT infrastructure will be different. These practices start from the moment you are handed all the user manuals and by taking the time to read and adhere to the information provided, it could save you time. Stay as current as possible with the latest XCS controller software and disk firmware, again this will save you time with configuration and compatability issues. Deploy your array in supported configurations if possible, depending on your circumstances, and lastly, always sign up for proactive notifications. 

BASE IT would always recommend that you try and abide by industry best practices no matter which technology you have decided to implement into your IT infrastructure. Our team have specific knowledge on HP EVA storage and aim to provide the reassurance and support needed for organisations with manufacturers' end of life and legacy systems.
