• Virtual service processor (VSP)
If your configuration includes a physical SP, it is located at the bottom of the rack under
the enclosures and above the PDUs.
Power Cooling Module (PCM) The PCM is an integrated power supply, battery, and cooling fan.
There are two types of PCMs:
• The 764 W (gold series) is used in the controller node enclosures and includes a
replaceable battery.
• The 580 W (gold series) is used in the drive enclosures and does not include a
battery.
There are two PCMs per enclosure that are numbered from 0 to 1, from left to right.
NOTE: In the HP 3PAR StoreServ 8000 3.5-inch Drive Enclosure, there are two PCMs
that are diagonally from one another and the remaining PCM slots are filled with blank
panels.

System Components and Specifications
HP 3PAR StoreServ Storage Security Feature
HP 3PAR Data Encryption security feature allows you to encrypt all specifically formatted drives
on the system with an authentication key and the use of self encrypting drives (SEDs) or Federal
Information Processing Standard (FIPS) capable drives.
Enhancing Security with Data Encryption
When a Data Encryption license is registered, you must manually enable the encryption feature
on the system.
For information about enabling the feature, see the HP 3PAR StoreServ Management Console User
Guide or later version at the HP Storage Information Library:
http://www.hp.com/go/storage/docs
When the encryption feature is enabled successfully, all the drives in the system become
automatically set in an encrypted state. You can review the encryption status of individual HDDs
within the system Summary tab of the HP 3PAR StoreServ Management Console (SSMC).
This feature allows you to perform the following encryption-related tasks:
•
Check encryption status
•
Enable encryption
•
Back up an authentication key
•
Restore an authentication key
•
Generate a new key
•
Recover a key

System Capacity Specifications
The following table lists system capacity and configuration details.
NOTE: SSDs have a limited number of writes that can occur before reaching the SSD's write
endurance limit. This limit is generally high enough so wear out will not occur during the expected
service life of an HP 3PAR StoreServ under the great majority of configurations, IO patterns, and
workloads. HP 3PAR StoreServ tracks all writes to SSDs and can report the percent of the total
write endurance limit that has been used. This allows any SSD approaching the write endurance
limit to be proactively replaced before they are automatically spared out. An SSD has reached the
maximum usage limit once it exceeds its write endurance limit. Following the product warranty
period, SSDs that have exceeded the maximum usage limit will not be repaired or replaced under
HP support contracts.

When the equipment arrives, you must make sure that there is enough room to unload and unpack
the system.
The specific amount of space you will need to unpack the system is based on the dimensions of
the container, the ramp, and the room required to access the system so that it can be moved to its
placement destination.
NOTE: See “Structural/Environmental Considerations” (page 24) for more information on placing
the systems and reserving room for service access.
Acclimatization
Systems are shipped or stored at extreme temperatures and might require time to adjust to operating
temperatures before startup. The maximum acceptable rate of temperature change for a
non-operating system is 36° F/hour (20° C/hour). The system requires time to acclimatize to new
environmental conditions before being powered on. During that time, it is possible to proceed with
the physical installation of the system. However, the system might need at least 24 hours to
acclimatize to a new environment prior to completing the full system installation. If condensation
is present even after the 24–hour acclimatization period, it is necessary to wait until all condensation
has evaporated before completing the power-on sequence.
Pre-Installation Planning and Tasks
23
3 Structural/Environmental Considerations
Consider the following when choosing or designing your facilities for the system:
•
Equipment location and layout that allows efficient use, easy maintenance, and future
expansion.
•
Facility construction that provides a suitable operating environment, sufficient power, and
adequate protection from fire, contamination, or other hazards.
•
Suitable temperatures and appropriate air quality that is free from environmental contaminants.
The customer is responsible for maintaining the room environment according to the recommended
specifications. Environmental conditions for the room and under the floor must be maintained within
the acceptable limits to prevent any adverse impact on performance and reliability. The installation
environment should be monitored on a regular basis to ensure continued conformance to
recommended environmental specifications. The customer might request assistance from an HP 3PAR
representative for help with analyzing the site location and environment to make appropriate
recommendations.
For information on rack requirements and considerations, see the Best practices for HP Intelligent
Series Rack Family white paper.

Structural/Environmental Considerations
Anchoring Dimensions
Some installations might require the systems to be anchored to the floor for better stability, especially
in active seismic locations. The HP Tie Down Option Kit enables you to anchor an Intelligent Series
Rack to the floor in geographical areas that are prone to seismic activity, thereby meeting
international building code guidelines. This product provides a solution to help avoid damage or
serious injury in the event of building or floor movement.
NOTE: For information on options available for the Intelligent Series Rack, see the Rack Options
Catalog at HP.com:
http://www.hp.com/go/rackandpower
For information on rack requirements and considerations, see the Best practices for HP Intelligent
Series Rack Family white paper.
Meeting Environment Conditions
HP recommends that you maintain a controlled environment with a high degree of cleanliness,
close control of temperature and humidity, and infrequent access by personnel.
CAUTION: The system operating environment must be free from continuous vibration and from
dust and other environmental contaminants.
Maintaining the Optimal Temperature
The level of cooling required for the systems is quite different from the air-conditioning used in
offices. Air conditioning systems for comfort are designed for the lower heat and higher moisture
generated by the human body. In contrast, equipment has high heat output that is moisture-free
(sensible heat). In comfort systems, sensible heat normally produces 60–70% of the load, whereas
the dry heat of electronic equipment produces a sensible heat ratio of over 95%.
Prior to installation, verify the operating site is equipped with a cooling system that can support
all thermal emissions.
Proper site layout is critical to ensure the ambient temperature near the intake of the system does
not rise beyond the system specifications. Exceeding the maximum ambient temperature for any
period negatively affects the reliability and performance of the system. Continued operation for
extended periods under such conditions might actually cause the system to shut down.
CAUTION:
Heated air from nearby equipment should not exhaust into the front of the system.
Use the following average and maximum thermal emissions of system components to estimate the
cooling requirements for a system based on a specific system configuration.

Controller nodes can only be installed in pairs.
Meeting Environment Conditions
25
Systems can tolerate temperature and humidity fluctuations if the specified guidelines are understood
and followed. Exposure to conditions outside the specified ranges might damage the system or its
components.
Before a system is powered on, the air entering the subsystem must be clean and within the ranges
specified for temperature and humidity. The room humidity must be kept sufficiently low to prevent
condensation on or within the subsystem, and must never exceed the limit specified in the subsystem
environmental requirements tables, including transient humidity. The system must never be exposed
to conditions that could cause internal condensation to occur within the subsystem.
The air conditioning units should have controls monitoring thermal conditions underneath the floor.
Humidification is normally required to replace moisture removed during the cooling process. The
relative humidity for a subsystem equipment room should be set at 40%. This level is sufficient to
suppress electromagnetic charge buildup, and low enough to avoid the risk of corrosion and
condensation. To avoid air contamination from the humidifier, water treatment might be necessary
in areas with high mineral content.
Air Supply and Flow
The air flow capacity of the facility where the systems are installed needs to be sufficient to remove
the heat generated by the equipment. In addition, the air handlers must provide the airflow volume
required by the units being cooled. To ensure this airflow, the facility must have a positive air
pressure underneath the floor (if the facility has raised floors). When conditions within the computer
room are changed (new units are added, the computer system is moved, and so on), airflow checks
should be made.
The amount of outside (composition) air should be kept to the minimum needed to create a slight
positive pressure within the room, and it should not exceed industry recommendations of 0.3 cubic
meters/minute (10 cubic feet/minute) per person stationed in the equipment room. While
recommendations for outside air in comfort air conditioning are 10–15% of the airflow, the computer
room environment is cleaner and operates more efficiently if outside air is kept below 1 percent
of the airflow. Cooling/heating and humidification needs are reduced, and a minimum of
contaminated building air is introduced into the installation area.
26
Structural/Environmental Considerations
Air Cleanliness
Air contaminants can cause equipment malfunction and can damage systems. It is essential that
steps be taken to prevent air contaminants, such as metal particles, solvent vapors, corrosive gases,
soot, airborne fibers, or salt, from entering or being generated within the server room environment.
A high-efficiency air filter should be employed on each air inlet for outside air to stop dust at the
point of entry to the installation site. Special additional filtering is necessary where the environment
is exposed to salt air, corrosive gases, or unusual dust/dirt conditions. Electronic equipment is
sensitive to air contaminants such as the following:
•
Excessive amounts of soot particles
•
Condensate particulates such as carbonates
•
Concrete particulates from unsealed concrete
•
Metal flakes or filings, such as those produced by sawing, filing, or drilling
•
Floor-cleaning solutions with high ammonia content.
•
Deteriorating/decomposing building materials, including floor tiles, fabrics, sheetrock,
insulation, and acoustical tiles
•
Pollutants generated by any servicing performed in and around the computer room
•
Paper chaff, dust, and toners from printers within the computer room
•
Processing chemicals from reproduction equipment such as microfiche processors.
In electronic equipment, contaminants cause connector contact and motor-bearing degradation.
They also cause electrical leakage, shorting paths between integrated circuit leads and between
printed wiring traces on printed circuit boards.
Air supplied to and circulated within the server room and plenums underneath the floor should
ideally pass through mechanical or electrostatic filters. HVAC ducts and plenums and sub-floor
areas, including cable raceway openings (where used), should be kept clean. All unused cables,
hardware, and debris should be removed from the area underneath the floor to avoid becoming
dust/dirt traps or potential sources of rust.
During major changes in the server room environment, special considerations must be taken into
account whenever any drilling, sawing, welding, brazing, and so on, is performed.
Precautions must be taken to prevent material particles (concrete or metal particles for example.)
from becoming airborne. Systems should be powered down during construction that requires any
drilling, sawing, welding, brazing, and so on. In addition, all debris must be removed before
powering up the systems. Maximum concentrations of corrosive gases and solvent vapors must
also be considered.
Meeting Environment Conditions
27
4 Power Requirements
The following describes all power domains within an HP 3PAR StoreServ 8000 Storage system.
Electrical Requirements and Limitations
Before physically installing a system, verify that the operating site has the necessary electrical
circuitry. Each system requires four (200 - 240) Volt, 30 Amp outlets, or two outlets if only the
bottom half of the rack is occupied. For proper redundant power protection, power should be
supplied from two or more power sources. Use the approximate current requirements for system
components listed in “Power and Heat Specifications” (page 16) to estimate the current, power,
and heat requirements for a specific system configuration.
Power Quality
The quality of the input power is critical to the performance and reliability of the system. Variations
in the input power can cause a power failure or malfunction. Many of the causes of transient signals
and noise on commercial power lines are difficult to locate or are beyond the customer’s control.
To reduce the impact of the irregularities, some form of power conditioning might be needed.
Consult your electrician for assistance.
Voltage and Frequency Tolerance
Steady state voltage must be maintained within 10% of the normal rated voltage, measured (under
load) at the power input terminal of the specified server. The frequency must be maintained at
(50-60 HZ), 1 phase 50/60 +2%, -4%.
When there is a possibility of brownouts or other marginal voltage conditions, installing a voltage
monitor is advisable.
Systems are tested to comply with the IEC/EN 61000–4–5 standard.
HP recommends installing a lightning protection device on the server room power source when
the following conditions exist:
•
The primary power is supplied by an overhead power service.
•
The utility company installs lightning protectors on the primary power source.
•
The area is subject to electrical storms or equivalent types of power surges.
Electrostatic Discharge
Systems are susceptible to failure due to Electrostatic Discharge (ESD). Electrostatic charges can
accumulate on people and furniture because of direct contact with floor coverings or movement
while in contact with furniture coverings. Discharge of static electricity to a metal surface on server
racks can interfere with the system operation and cause discomfort to anyone who comes in contact
with it.
Some factors contributing to electrostatic discharge are the following:
•
High-resistance floor covering
•
Carpeting without antistatic properties
•
Low humidity (less than 20%)
The system is tested to comply with the IEC/EN 61000–4–2 standard.
28
Power Requirements
Branch Circuits
The individual panel branch circuits should be protected by suitable circuit breakers properly rated
according to manufacturer specifications and applicable codes. Each circuit breaker should be
labeled to identify the branch circuit it is controlling. The receptacle should also be labeled. Plan
on a circuit breaker maximum of 30 A per PDU (de-rated to 24 A).
Emergency Power Control
As a safety precaution, you might consider providing emergency power-off controls for disconnecting
the main service wiring that supplies systems. Install these controls at a convenient place for the
operators and next to the main exit doors of the room after checking local electrical codes for
further guidelines.
Power Distribution Units
In HP-integrated systems, four PDUs are mounted horizontally below the enclosures at the bottom
rear of the rack. Numbers for PDUs are assigned beginning with 0, from bottom to top.
NOTE: If a system rack does not have components installed in the top portion of the rack, do not
connect and use the two upper PDUs (PDU 2 and PDU 3) to power the system. Redundant power
is still supplied to the lower bays in the rack through PDU 0 and PDU 1.
System PDUs are equipped with NEMA® L6–30 or IEC 60309 connectors, depending on the
region. International PDUs are equipped with IEC 60309, 2P+E (3 wire, 2 Pole + Earth Ground)
connectors. The appropriate receptacles or adapters are necessary at the operating site to
accommodate these connectors.
Each PDU is equipped with two power banks and separate circuit breakers, used exclusively for
system components.
WARNING! To avoid possible injury, damage to system equipment, and potential loss of data,
do not use the surplus power outlets in the system PDUs. Never use outlets in the PDUs to power
components that do not belong to the system or to power system components that reside in other
racks.
Power Cord Connections
Systems arrive with all internal power cords configured. Each PDU AC cord connects to the wall
outlet and supplies power to the controller node and drive enclosure power supplies. The power
can be routed from the top or bottom of the rack.
Redundant Power
The system supports redundant power through the use of PDUs and PCMs.
WARNING! To avoid possible injury, damage to system equipment, and potential loss of data,
do not use the surplus power outlets in the system PDUs. Never use outlets in the PDUs to power
components that do not belong to the system or to power system components that reside in other
racks.
To support redundant power:
•
The PCMs in each enclosure must connect to separate PDUs.
•
Each PDU in the system must connect to an independent AC circuit.
Branch Circuits
29
Power Cooling Modules
The system includes an enclosure that has two PCMs, an integrated power supply, and a cooling
fan and battery, that are located at the rear of the system on either side of an enclosure. The PCM
converts current from an AC line to appropriate DC levels and supplies power to the controller
node.
There are two types of PCMs:
•
The 764 W (gold series) is used in the controller node enclosures and includes a replaceable
battery.
•
The 580 W (gold series) is used in the drive enclosures and does not include a battery.
The following table provides the technical specifications of the replaceable battery located inside
the 764 W PCM.

Network, Cabling, and Connectivity
Controller Node Connections
The controller nodes provide the ports that are required to connect to external drives, systems, and
other devices. The number of ports available for the host connection will vary based on the
configuration.
A controller node has one PCIe slot that can be used with one of the following:
•
4–port 16 Gb/s FC HBA
•
2–port 10 Gb/s iSCSI/FCoE CNA
•
4–port 1 GbE Ethernet NIC
•
2–port 10 GbE Ethernet NIC
NOTE:
The Ethernet Port (MGMT) is also used for the management interface connection.
The FC SFP adapters are used to connect to the customer FC switch and/or hosts and can also be
used for Remote Copy operations. Depending on whether your system includes two or four controller
nodes and the type of PCI adapter installed, a system can support a maximum of 4–24 SFPs.
Required Cables
The quantities and lengths of the cables required for system installation vary according to the
specific system and network configuration. Cables are required on the HP 3PAR StoreServ 8000
Storage for drive enclosure connections and for host connectivity. Copper SAS cables are required
for connecting the drive enclosures to the nodes on the same rack and for daisy chaining between
adjacent drive enclosures. Storage Base products, the Upgrade Node Pair and the Drive Enclosures
all include Copper SAS cables. SAS Active Optical Cables are required if an HP 3PAR StoreServ
8000 needs to be expanded into an adjacent rack, to connect drive enclosures in adjacent racks
to the nodes in the base rack. OM4 Fiber Cables are required for host connectivity, Remote Copy
and Peer Motion. The copper 1GbE cables are used for Remote Copy over IP and for connection
to the Management Port.

To provide redundancy and to permit online software upgrades, both controller nodes in a controller node pair (for
example, controller nodes 0 and 1 and controller nodes 2 and 3) must maintain connections to each host server.
•
Each controller node supports one Ethernet connection to a switch or hub. Separate connections
from the Ethernet switch or hub to at least two controller nodes are required to support
redundancy. With redundancy, one IP address is shared between the two connections and
only one network connection is active at a time. If the active network connection fails, the IP
address is automatically moved to the surviving network connection.
•
At a minimum, the system requires one FC (or iSCSI) connection from a host computer to a
controller node. However, HP recommends separate connections from each host computer to
each of the controller nodes in the system, with connections distributed evenly across all
controller nodes.
The following shows the maximum supported FC cable length based on the cable size and port
speed:

Cable Routing Options
For 10 Gigabit Ethernet (10GbE), iSCSI, and FC cables that connect the system to the customer
network or hosts, approximately 7 feet (2 meters) of each cable must be reserved for internal
routing within the system rack.
Network Access
External Ethernet, iSCSI, FCoE, or FC cable connections are completed at the time of installation.
These external connections are necessary to do the following:
•
Establish connections from the controller nodes to the host computer or computers
•
Connect the system to the network, enabling system management through the HP 3PAR
StoreServ Management Console (SSMC) and HP 3PAR Command Line Interface (CLI)
•
Allow communication to the system from the SP
Internal Cable Connections
35
Supported Network Topologies
Several different network topologies can connect the system to the local area network, depending
on operating site policies and requirements. Currently, the two supported topologies are shared
and private.
Shared Network Topology
With a shared network topology, the system and SP share the internal customer network.
A shared topology requires all of the following:
•
A static IP address and system name for the system
•
A minimum two Ethernet connections from a switch or hub to the system controller nodes, if
there are more than two controller nodes
•
A static IP address for the SP
•
One Ethernet connection from a switch or hub to the SP
Private Network Topology
With a private network topology, both the system and SP reside on the same private network
segment of the customer local area network. All management workstations used to administer the
system must also reside on the same private network segment.
A private topology requires all of the following:
•
A static IP address for the system
•
Two Ethernet connections from the system to a private network segment
•
A minimum two Ethernet connection from the SP to the private network segment, if there are
more than two controller nodes
•
A static IP address for the SP
•
At least one management station on the private network segment
Service Processor Connectivity
The SP is used to provide remote error detection and reporting, and to support diagnostic and
maintenance activities involving the system.
HP uses the data collected by the SP to maintain, troubleshoot, and upgrade any HP 3PAR storage
equipment on the customer site. To perform these activities, the SP must communicate with HP Central
or a local service provider. The connection between the SP and HP Central or a local service
provider can be made by using the customer network and the Internet. Connections using the
customer network pass through a customer’s firewall. When a designated management workstation
resides on the same network as the SP and is configured to access the SP, a customer has the
option to block external communications at any time. The SP needs to be on the same subnet as
the system.

6 Third-Party/Existing Rack Mounting
Some installations might use third-party or existing racks to house the HP 3PAR StoreServ 8000
Storage components. Install system components only into a standard 19-inch rack. The rack must
also be equipped with the appropriate PDUs or power receptacles and have access to an adequate
power source that provides the recommended level of redundancy.
NOTE: For physical dimensions and power/heat specifications for system components, see
“Power and Heat Specifications” (page 16). For general information on placement and
recommended conditions, see “Structural/Environmental Considerations” (page 24).
Rack Service Installation Prerequisites
Rack Location
•
Place the rack in its final location.
•
Make sure the operational power, with the correct connectors, exists in the proposed location
of the rack. The system will operate in 100-240VAC 50/60Hz and requires 200-240 VAC
PDUs or power strips. Each drive enclosure requires two C13/C14 connections. The SP
requires one C13/C14 connection.
•
36 inch (91.4 cm) of service clearance is required directly in front of the rack. This is required
due to the depth of the enclosure and potential to damage to other equipment that is in front
of the rack/enclosure.
•
30 inch (76.2 cm) of service clearance is required on both sides of the front of the rack. This
is required because two people must lift the enclosure and set into the rack. The allocated
space is necessary on each side for the person to stand and maneuver the enclosure.
•
30 inch (76.2 cm) of unobstructed clearance is required directly behind the enclosure to
service the controller nodes (for example, do not attach PDUs, power-strips, power cord routing,
and other things to the rear of the rack). There must be unobstructed clearance directly behind
the controller node enclosure in order to remove or install a controller node.
Rack Service Installation Prerequisites
37
Rack Installation Requirements
•
The rack is operational and has enough space for the installation. HP installation and upgrade
services does not include building a new rack, re-racking, or moving existing components.
The required contiguous rack space is defined by the quantity of 8000 Storage and drive
enclosures in the system. There must be 2U of rack space for each HP 3PAR 8000 Storage
enclosure and 2U SAS drive enclosure, 4U of rack space for the 4U SAS drive enclosure, and
1U for a SP. HP also recommends having an open rack space above and below the installed
system components for drive enclosure upgrades.
•
Only use a 4–post rack for an installation. Using any other types of racks is prohibited . The
vertical RETMA rails must have square holes.
•
Customer cabling (power, FC, SAS, and Ethernet) must be routed in an organized path so it
does not restrict the removal of controller nodes or obstruct the servicing area.
•
The rail kits for the 8000 series controller node and drive enclosures have a supported depth
range of 24.5 inch to 32 inches (measurement between the inside of the retma rails from front
to back). Shipment of the units installed in the third party racks is NOT supported.
•
Two people are required to lift the enclosure during any servicing purposes.
Third-Party/Existing Rack Service Limitations
HP will not perform the following tasks:
•
Assemble the rack from components
•
Configure the rack hardware
•
Position the rack
•
Perform any extensive racking, re-racking, or cabling activities, including cabling activities
involving conduits, raceways, patch panels, and movement or configuration of computer room
floor panels.
•
Complete a full site inspection, such as a comprehensive analysis of power, cooling and
humidity, airborne contaminants, vibration, and sufficient structural capability of the raised
floor in the data center to accommodate the weight of the array to be installed.
Rack Dimensional Requirements
Refer to “Physical Specifications” (page 12) for physical specifications of the enclosures.
If you are installing any HP equipment in a four-post rack, the rack must comply with the minimum
and maximum specifications. A clear path between the front and rear vertical (RETMA) rails must
be established. There must not be any obstructions to the area when installing the rails and
enclosures.
38
Third-Party/Existing Rack Mounting
Rack Space Considerations
HP highly recommends installing enclosures in contiguous rack space because it ensures the copper
SAS reaches the connecting ports, and provides consistency for servicing and installation. When
additional drive enclosure are added in the future, it is recommended to place them with the initial
enclosure, but it is not required.
Your site configuration should also specify an area of contiguous space within the rack for installing
HP equipment, such as the top, bottom or middle part of the rack. HP recommends considering an
area closest to the location of the sourced host cables when you are determining an installation
area.
Build the rack from bottom to top.
Rack Minimum Clearances
Proper clearances should be maintained for all mounted installations to allow for proper ventilation,
cabling and access for maintenance.
Table 19 Rack Minimum Clearances
Service
Front: 36 inch (91.4 cm)
Rear: 30 inch (76.2 cm) x 19 inch (50.8 cm) unobstructed clearance directly behind the enclosure.

39
Rack Four-Post Shelf Kit
The four-post shelf kits allow the drive enclosure and components to be mounted in a variety of
four-post racks. Each enclosure or component requires its own mounting kit.
NOTE:
Do not stack the enclosure on top of another one.
Four-post shelves are mounted to the front and rear rails of a four-post rack. Each side requires
two shelf halves and the corresponding mounting hardware. The shelf halves are expandable to
fit racks of different depths. Front shelf halves have left and right pieces, while the rear shelf half
can be used on either side of the rack. When the installation is complete on both the left and right
sides, the equipment can be placed on the shelves and secured to the RETMA rails.
Rack Redundant Power Requirements
Each system component is supplied with redundant PCMs. The controller nodes and drive enclosure
are designed to continue operating even when AC power is lost to one of the PCMs. For this feature
to operate properly, each power supply line cord within an enclosure must be attached to an
independent electrical source, each controlled and protected by its own circuit breaker. Multiple
outlets in a power distribution unit or power strip do not constitute an independent electrical source.
Additionally, each line cord must be plugged into an outlet that is capable of supporting the entire
load of its enclosure.
CAUTION:
The PDUs are not provided with the installation kit. Verify the PDUs meet the minimum
power requirements before powering on the system. Special consideration must be given to this
requirement. Failure to do so might result in the overloading of the branch circuit if a power supply
fails, and shuts down the system, and cause similar failures in all the equipment connected to the
branch circuit.
CAUTION: AC line cords should be securely attached to the customer PDUs and outlets with
cord-retention mechanisms to prevent accidental disconnection during service activities. HP provides
cord retention mechanisms on HP power supplies but does not supply retention devices for
connection to the customer PDUs or outlets.
NOTE:

File Persona Pre-Installation Checklists
Identity Mapping
File Persona supports RFC2307 for Active Directory. When RFC2307 is enabled, the Active
Directory (AD) service provides the GIDs and UIDs.
WARNING! Do not enable Identity Mapping (RFC2307) unless absolutely sure that it is required.
The default setting is disabled, the HP 3PAR StoreServ formulates the UIDs and GIDs for all AD
users and groups based on the Security Identifier (SID). When RFC2307 is enabled, you must
specify a unique UID for every user and a unique GID for every group in AD. If RFC2307 is enabled
and the user does not have a configured UID or GID in AD, the user is not given write access even
if they are granted access through an Access Control List (ACL).
Table 27 Identity Mapping
Item
Answer/Value
Enable Identity Mapping (RFC2307) for the Active Directory provider
Answer: Enable or Disable
(Disable is the Default and recommended value)
If enabled, File Persona expects UIDs and GIDs to be found in Active Directory
and not formulated using the SID as is the default behavior. This allows user
to customize UIDs and GIDs. If rfc2307is enabled when the user does not
have a configured UID/GID in Active Directory, write access is prevented,
even if granted through an ACL.
Local Groups and Users
If Local users and Groups are to be used for user authentication, complete the following tables.
Valid UID and GID are in the range 1000 to 65535.

NOTE: The maximum number of Local User accounts supported using the local authentication
provider is 200. However, the optimal number of user accounts recommended by Hewlett-Packard
is 50 or less. In environments requiring 50 or more user accounts, Hewlett-Packard recommends
the use of a directory service {E.G. Active Directory or Lightweight Directory Access Protocol} to
manage File Persona file system permissions.

File Persona Virtual File Server Installation
A Virtual File Server (VFS) presents virtual IP addresses to allow clients to access shares. Policies
for user and group quota management and antivirus policies are managed at the VFS level. A VFS
comprises one or more IP addresses and a minimum of 1TiB of storage.
Each VFS leverages a File Provisioning Group (FPG), an instance of the HP Adaptive File System
(AFS), to control how files are stored and retrieved. The FPG has a minimum size of 1TiB and is
assigned storage from a HP 3PAR Common Provisioning Group (CPG). There is a 1:1 mapping
between a VFS and an FPG.
Replicate the following table for each VFS.

File Persona File Share Installation
File Shares provide data access to clients via SMB, NFS, and the Object Access API, based on
the share permissions applied to them. File Shares are presented from a File Store. File Stores are
the slice of a Virtual File Server and File Provisioning Group at which snapshots are taken, capacity
Quota Management can be performed, and Antivirus Scan Services policies customized. There
are up to 256 File Stores supported on a node pair, 16 File Stores per VFS.
The following sections detail the information to capture for each share type, SMB, NFS and Object.
