3 Hosting storage for applications and shared folders

The Automated Storage Manager (ASM) radically simplifies hosting application storage and shared

folders on your HP Storage System, using storage-allocation wizards. Use storage-allocation wizards

to allocate and configure storage for these applications:

NotesDescriptionApplication

See “Using the Host an Exchange

Storage Group Wizard”

(page 10).

Allocate and configure storage for one or more Exchange storage

group components. A wizard assists you by discovering

Exchange storage group components (such as mail stores, public

stores, and logs), suggesting default storage configurations based

on best practices for Exchange, migrating the Exchange storage

group components you selected to your HP Storage System, and

configuring Exchange to store data on your HP Storage System.

Exchange

See “Using the Create a Shared

Folder Wizard” (page 12).

Create shared folders on your HP Storage System. A wizard

assists you in allocating and configuring storage space for shared

folders, and creating shared folders.

Shared Folders

See “Using the Host a SQL Server

Database Wizard” (page 14).

Allocate and configure storage for SQL Server databases. A

wizard assists you by discovering servers that host SQL Server

and SQL Server database components (such as data files and

logs), suggesting default storage configurations based on best

practices for SQL Server, migrating the SQL Server database

components you selected to your HP Storage System, optionally

deleting the SQL Server database components you selected from

the server that hosts SQL Server, and configuring SQL Server to

store data on your HP Storage System.

SQL Server

See “ Using the Host a

User-Defined Application Wizard”

(page 15).

Allocate and configure storage for any remote application over

the iSCSI protocol or any other application that requires storage

on the HP Storage System. A wizard assists you in allocating

and configuring storage space.

The wizard does not migrate user-defined application data to

your HP Storage System or reconfigure the application to store

data on your HP Storage System. You must do this manually as

described in “Migrating user-defined application data from a

remote application” (page 25), and as described in the

application's documentation.

User-Defined

Applications

See “Using the Create a Virtual

Library Wizard” (page 17).

Create a virtual library that backs up data from a remote system

on your HP Storage System. A wizard assists you in choosing

size and storage allocation.

Data Protection

Using the Host an Exchange Storage Group Wizard

The Host an Exchange Storage Group Wizard automatically discovers the Exchange storage groups

on your application server and helps you allocate and configure storage space for these components:

• Mail stores—Contain the data in user mailboxes.

• Public stores—Contain the data in public folders.

• Logs—Provide a record of every message stored in a storage group.

Before you begin configuring storage for Exchange

• Make sure the ASM agent is installed on each server with Exchange data you plan to host.

• Make sure you have a current backup of your Exchange data and logs.
