Technical white paper | HP Enterprise Virtual Array Storage and VMware vSphere 4.x and 5.x configuration best practices
4
Executive summary
The HP Enterprise Virtual Array (EVA) storage
1
family has been designed for mid-range and enterprise customers with
critical requirements to improve storage utilization and scalability. EVA arrays can fulfill application-specific demands for
transactional I/O performance, while supporting easy capacity expansion, instantaneous replication, and simplified storage
administration.
The combination of an EVA array, HP Command View EVA software and VMware vSphere 4.x and 5.x provides a
comprehensive solution that can simplify management and maximize the performance of a vSphere infrastructure.
HP continues to develop and improve best practices for deploying HP EVA Storage arrays with vSphere 4.x and 5.x. This
white paper describes a broad range of best practices for a Fibre Channel (FC) and iSCSI implementation; Fibre Channel over
Ethernet (FCoE) implementation is outside the scope of this paper.
Target audience: vSphere and SAN administrators that are familiar with the vSphere infrastructure and virtual storage
features, the EVA array family, and Command View EVA.

The challenges
With vSphere 5, VMware continues to stretch the boundaries of scalability through features that include:
Support for 1TB of RAM per virtual machine (VM)
Support for 32 virtual CPUs per VM
Support for 160 cores for host server
High-performance SCSI virtual adapter
Support for up to 512 VMs on a single ESX host

Modular storage stack that is closely integrated with the particular storage array
For administrators, this feature-packed hypervisor raises several questions about effectively configuring, tuning and
deploying vSphere 4.x and 5.x in their respective SANs such as:
What is the optimal storage configuration?
Which I/O path policy is the most appropriate?
How to simplify storage management, even in a complex environment with multiple storage systems?
How to effectively monitor the SAN in order to quickly make adjustments when needed?
Successfully addressing these challenges is imperative if you wish to maximize the return on investment (ROI) for your SAN
while continuing to meet the changing needs of the business. To help you achieve these goals, this paper presents best
practices for configuring, tuning, and deploying a vSphere SAN environment.
Key concepts and features
This section introduces key concepts and features associated with the successful configuration, tuning, and deployment of a
vSphere SAN environment. These include Asymmetric Logical Unit Access (ALUA) compliance, virtual disk (Vdisk) controller
ownership and access, and Vdisk follow-over.
