AH138A

The HP StorageWorks 300 Virtual Library System Gateway Base Unit (part number: AH138A) is a comprehensive storage solution designed to virtualise backup operations, enhancing data management in medium to large-scale enterprise environments. This gateway base unit acts as a virtual tape library (VTL), which improves backup speeds and reliability by utilising advanced disk-based storage technology rather than traditional tape methods.

The unit is configured with a hard drive array, which provides excellent scalability and performance for demanding data environments. It can emulate multiple tape libraries and automates backup tasks, reducing the complexity of storage management. The virtual tape approach is designed to minimise manual interaction, thereby increasing data integrity and reducing the risk of human error.

This base unit leverages a high-performing hardware RAID (Redundant Array of Independent Disks) setup to ensure data redundancy and improve reliability. Data protection is further enhanced through support for various data protection protocols and features. The device integrates with a range of backup software vendors, making it a highly versatile unit for businesses with existing storage infrastructure.

The HP StorageWorks 300 Virtual Library System Gateway Base Unit offers expandable storage capacity, allowing businesses to scale their virtual data storage to meet growing demands over time. The system is typically deployed in environments that require multiple levels of redundancy, business continuity planning, and efficient disaster recovery solutions.

This hardware is ideal for enterprises that require efficient backup operations and secure long-term storage of large datasets across distributed sites or data centres. Its virtual architecture shortens recovery times while significantly reducing the dependency on physical tapes, contributing to more efficient and reliable system operation.
