HP SN3000B 16Gb Fibre Channel Switch
Meet the needs of your hyperscale, private cloud storage environments by obtaining
market-leading 16 Gb FC Gen5 technology and capabilities that support highly virtualized
environments. Designed to enable better flexibility and investment protection, the HP SN3000B
switch scales from 12 to 24 ports, and supports 4, 8, or 16 Gbps speeds in an efficiently
designed 1U package. It also provides a simplified deployment process and a point-and-click
user interface, making it powerful and easy to use. It offers low-cost access to SAN technology
while providing “pay-as-you-grow” scalability to meet the needs of an evolving storage
environment. Other characteristics include:
• Flexible fabrics
– 16 Gbps optimized inter-switch links (ISLs)
– 128 Gbps high-performance, resilient frame-based trunk
– Port preservation for server and storage connectivity
• Operational simplicity
– Dynamic Fabric Provisioning (DFP)
– End-to-end optics and link validation
– Simple deployment
– HP SAN Network Advisor
• Cloud-optimized performance
– Energy-efficient advanced switching ASIC
– Better performance on 16 Gb FC (higher IOPS and twice the bandwidth)
HP 8/24 SAN Switch
Consolidate data center connectivity for small- to medium-sized enterprises with 8 Gbps
connectivity and switch ports are scalable from 16–24 FC ports; high availability; and lossless
networking between applications and data, as well as between servers and storage networks.
A new configuration of this switch bundled with small form-factor pluggable (SFP) transceivers
is now available.
HP 8/8 SAN Switch

28. Competitive SAN Landscape
Lenovo’s primary server and storage competitors will also offer Brocade products
Primary product/feature/function comparison will be equivalent or very similar
Lenovo SAN offering comparison will vary for each competitor
Focus on key Lenovo’s one-stop shop and total solution advantages
An advantage for Lenovo SAN products is configuration flexibility
Transceiver configuration flexibility lowers solution cost
Example: Customers wants a 24-port 6510 base switch and mixture of 8G and 16Gb optics
With Lenovo the customer orders 6510 with 8 x 8Gb and 7x16Gb SFP transceivers
With competitors, the 6510 base switch comes with 24x8Gb or 24x16Gb SFPs
Cisco leads with FCOE/Ethernet, but does offer FC switch: see next page

33. Brocade Storage Area Network (SAN) FAQ
What is a Storage Area Network (SAN)?
Is a purpose built storage network, that allows multiple servers to connect to shared storage, tht is seperate from the IP/LAN/Ethernet network.
Who sells SAN?
80% of Brocade SAN products are sold through major Storage and Server providers. Brocade business model is not to sell direct. Distributors account for 20%.
Why sell SAN?
Selling SAN & Storage can increase your deal size by 50% (TBV).
Customer prefer a single vendor to purchase their server, network and storage.
It simplifies the ordering process, and provides customer stronger discounts.
The customer will then have a single vendor to call for service and support.
SAN increases your account control, as all new server and storage opprotnities will touch a SAN.
A Brocade SAN blocks another route for Cisco taking control at your account
Competition will lead with server, network, and storage quotes.
When to sell SAN?
A SAN is typically sold when customer is buying or consolidating their storage arrays. Additionally, SAN is also sold for customers are adding servers into their datacenter, that will connect to their existing SANs. Customers will also, consolidate and refresh the SAN products that are going End of Life/Support.

34. Identifying Fibre Channel SAN Opportunities
Ask yourself…
Does your server deal include Fibre Channel (HBA) adapters or Storage?
Yes -> Include a Fibre Channel switch, the customer will be needed it for connectivity.
Ask your customer…
Do you have a Fibre Channel storage network (SAN) today?
Yes -> Include a Fibre Channel switch, to connect the new servers to their existing SAN.
Do you plan to Virtualize more of your datacenter?
Yes -> Fibre Channel SAN is the preferred storage option for virtualized & cloud datacenters.
Will the servers be running a mission critical application?
Yes -> Fibre Channel SAN provides the highest availability and performance data connectivity for 90% of the Global 1000 Corporations mission critical applications such as Oracle, SAP, Exchange, OLTP, CRM, VDI, & Cloud.
Is Flash Storage in your plans?
Yes -> Flash Storage requires Fibre Channel for its low latency, high throughput, and high availability.
Do you anticipate significant datacenter growth?
Yes -> Fibre Channel SANs are designed for simple non-disruptive scalability that allows the management of s of servers with minimal administration.
Are you planning Server or Storage Consolidation?
Yes -> Fibre Channel SANs provide higher VM densities per server and greater performance of storage arrays that drivers additional consolidation.
The Lenovo SAN products allow customers to consolidate legacy SAN switches through increased port densities.
