An overview of December 2009 enhancements to Veritas Storage Foundation, Veritas Cluster File System and Veritas Cluster Server, Symantec’s storage management and high availability solutions.

This release enables organizations to capitalize on new storage technology – such as solid state drives (SSDs) and thin provisioning – and improving performance and scalability. In addition, near instantaneous recovery of applications is now possible with Veritas Cluster File System, allowing for fast failover of structured information and near linear scalability.

Challenge of Migrating to Thin Storage

Host

Volume

File system

Source (legacy)70% Wasted Storage

Target (thin)70% Wasted Storage

6

• Migrating online typically involves FULL ‘block level’ copy to Thin Devices

– Doesn’t understand what information is written resulting in wasted storage

– If volume 1 is 100 GB with 30 GB used by the file system, 100 GB will be allocated to thin volume 2

• This applies to ALL block level copy methods (Host, Network, Appliance, Array)

Migrate Online and Reclaim Storage

• Veritas Storage Foundation SmartMove is the industry’s only solution

enabling online storage reclamation as you migrate from any thick to any

thin storage

• Now supported is Veritas Volume Replicator and SmartMove. Replicate or

migrate over local and wide-area distances

Keeping Thin Storage Thin—Over

Time

• As applications write data, physical storage is allocated. Applications create temp files, modifies and/or deletes information resulting in the file system size to be less than physical storage in the array—wasting storage

• Veritas Thin Reclamation API automates the non-disruptive storage reclamation with industry leading storage arrays

• IBM, HDS and 3PAR are the first to support the Thin Reclamation API.

• Dynamic Storage Tiering enables

file system to span multiple

storage tiers and/or vendors

– Automated, policy driven based on

size, age, type and/or usage

– Non-disruptive file movement

– 4x-12x faster performance with tier 0

– File movement is transparent to users,

applications, databases, data

protection, and scripts

Improve Storage Management and

Availability in Hyper-V

• Advanced online storage management in parent partition-instead of each individual child (virtual machine)

• Dynamically grow and shrink volumes online

• Provides snapshot capability for entire child partition – system/boot + application data

• Improves storage availability with integrated Veritas Dynamic Multi-pathing

• Veritas Volume Replicator can replicate a single virtual machine or all virtual machines
