page 2June 1, 2015 OpenVMS Enterprise Backup Strategy To provide OpenVMS users with a CHOICE of data backup and restoration solutions, thus allowing the maximum in flexibility when implementing their data protection strategy.

page 3June 1, 2015 Agenda Summary of OpenVMS Enterprise Backup Solutions Today – OpenVMS-Centric Solutions – Multi-Environment Solutions Overall Strategy Direction Specific Plans for each offering – Where each is going – How to get from one to another Supporting OpenVMS Integrity Environments Decision Points – How to choose a solution?

page 4June 1, 2015 Enterprise Backup offerings for OpenVMS Today OpenVMS-centric and produced by HP – BACKUP Utility – shipped with OpenVMS – Storage Library System (SLS) – Original solution – Archive Backup System (ABS) – Next generation solution OpenVMS-centric and provided by 3 rd Parties – I-S-E Enterprise Backup – based on BACKUP utility – Software Partners TapeSys – based on BACKUP utility, precursor to SLS product Multi-environment (O/S) solutions – HP OpenView Data Protector – Disk and media agents for OpenVMS – Legato NetWorker – “Storage Node” for OpenVMS – Veritas, CA, others – Client-only solution for OpenVMS

page 5June 1, 2015 Overall Strategy for OpenVMS Enterprise Backup Solutions Introduce new solutions that solve many of the problems that arise with the change in customer environments to Heterogeneous SANs – Work with technologies within HP which are working to solve the data protection problem – Partner with external solution providers who solve this problem on other heterogeneous platforms today AND who have a presence with customers today within their SAN To continue to support existing OpenVMS-produced tools that customers have relied upon for many years, and provide evolution paths as apporpriate – Continue supporting and enhance the BACKUP Utility – Performance improvements, enhancements and new tape support for ABS – Maintenance support only for SLS To continue to embrace 3 rd party vendors who offer homogeneous backup/restore solutions (I-S-E and Software Partners) Insure that the majority of these solutions exist on Alpha and Integrity Server Platforms for OpenVMS

page 6June 1, 2015 OpenVMS BACKUP Utility Plans Continues to be core capability provided by OpenVMS Continuing to release new versions – OpenVMS V7.3-2, V8.2, V8.2-1, beyond – Support for new FC components and tape devices Continue to support native OpenVMS products – The foundation for ABS and MDMS enhancements Some enhancements planned during 2005/2006 – Investigate more modern backup techniques EVM, snaps, clones, etc. Performance, Security enhancement potential Integrity Server port completed and included in OpenVMS V8.2 kit!!!

page 7June 1, 2015 Storage Library System (SLS) SLS V2.9H shipped in Q SLS V2.9J shipped in Q Support Plans into the Future – Place SLS into Maintenance Status during 2005/6 Support new versions of the O/S (allow existing SLS apps to work) No new features will be added No new tape drives will be qualified SLS WILL NOT be ported to Integrity Servers – Mixed-architecture Alpha/Integrity clusters mean customers can exist long-term with SLS via Alpha connectivity to storage used by applications on Integrity servers.

page 8June 1, 2015 How do customers evolve from SLS SLS Customers can move to ABS – Cost-effective since license/service is enabled with SLS license – Not “automatic” since some migration steps necessary Database migration tools provided w/ABS (being updated) Migration “guide” to be updated – part of ABS doc set White Paper and Service Offerings being developed to assist in necessary scripting/scheduling changes Presentation on Migration Techniques during this event SLS Can move to 3 rd party VMS-based solutions – ISE – BACKUP Utility basis for solution – similar to ABS Excellent option for customers looking for more ABS-like OpenVMS BACKUP utility-based solution, porting to Integrity servers in H – Software Partners TapeSys– SLS Predecessor Integrity port in H1 2005; Supports ODS5 today (SLS does not) Migration from SLS to TapeSys MUCH simpler – simple updates to existing files

page 9June 1, 2015 Archive Backup System (ABS) ABS V4.2 Shipped in Q – Included Minor features, device and O/S support ABS V4.3 Shipped in Q – Included Minor features, device and O/S support Overall Plans into the future (no current end date) – New Releases to support O/S changes (file system, backup) – Performance Improvements and New Features will be introduced with each new version. – Support appropriate new tape devices into the future (ESL, MSL, etc) – Actively support migration to ABS from SLS with tools/services/whitepapers. Integrity Server port completed with V4.3 release!!!!

page 10June 1, 2015 HP OpenView Data Protector Ongoing ownership by StorageWorks division HP OpenView DataProtector V5.1 shipped over a year ago – OpenVMS Media and Disk Agents – ODS5 Disk Support – Provides ability to do backup/restore on an OpenVMS system, driven by a server on a non-OpenVMS node (UNIX, Windows) Ongoing Enhancements – Support for Oracle Databases – H – Integrity Sever Port – Q – Support for Rdb Databases – Late 2005 Will be an integrated part of the – Future support includes “bare metal” restore, and possibly an OpenVMS Server HP OpenView Data Protector suite of products – will NOT be isolated from other heterogeneous HP solutions

page 11June 1, 2015 Legato NetWorker for OpenVMS Marketing, Technical and Service Partnership for NetWorker® family of Products Legato delivers both a client and “storage node” for OpenVMS platforms for NetWorker – First release with OpenVMS Support shipped in December 2002 – Support for ODS5, Oracle and Oracle Rdb Databases shipped Summer – Supports OpenVMS Alpha today and Integrity Server platforms in H – White Paper available describing NetWorker interaction with OpenVMS – Future Plans include “cold metal” restore support, and potential OpenVMS Server support Shipped NetWorker® evaluation kit with OpenVMS V8.2 Alpha distribution

page 12June 1, 2015 OpenVMS Integrity and Enterprise Backup Mixed-architecture clusters (Alpha/Integrity) allow for: – Shared SAN storage between both architectures – Shared direct-attached storage via MSCP serving from one architecture to the other – Alpha or Integrity-based applications, therefore, can manipulate storage from either perspective Applications existing on only one architecture can have access to the other architecture via OpenVMS Clustering – SLS on Alpha can continue to access Integrity-driven storage – DataProtector on Alpha can continue to access Integrity-driven storage (until their port is complete) – Any Integrity-based solution can continue to access Alpha- driven storage for as long as the mixed-architecture cluster exists

page 13June 1, 2015 How do customers choose a backup solution? If they have no solution today and need one – Consider Heterogeneous solution – better suited to SAN storage Should be driven first and foremost by IT environment requirement HP OpenView Data Protector –HP-branded solution, 1-stop shopping Legato NetWorker – Valued 3 rd party solution, HP services available – Consider ABS or 3 rd party Homogeneous solution if VMS-only without multi-cluster or non-SAN storage If they use ABS today – Stick with ABS if they want minor enhancements but support of more modern tape devices, or porting to Integrity servers – Consider Heterogeneous Solution if business dictates If they use SLS today – Stick with SLS if their environment doesn’t change – Migrate to ABS, I-S-E, or Software Partners solution if more active development/support model is desired (or Integrity support required) – Consider Heterogeneous Solution if business dictates
