Verify Optional Hardware requirements
StoreOnce software supports the addition of 10 GbE Network and/or Fibre Channel PCIe cards to the basic
configuration. The basic hardware configuration per server node consists of:
•
•
•
Four 1 GbE network ports
Two 10 GbE PCIe network ports in PCIe slots 1 and 4
Two blank PCIe slots in slots 5 and 6
The two blank PCIe slots are available for StoreOnce Optional Hardware. The required Optional Hardware kit
must be ordered in addition to the basic configuration.
IMPORTANT:
Optional Hardware cards must be installed in pairs (to maintain high availability configurations). All
nodes in the cluster must have the same type and model of card installed.
Procedure
1. If you require VTL target libraries or StoreOnce Catalyst over Fibre Channel, you must purchase one of the
Fibre Channel Optional Hardware kits. Have you ordered the required number of Fibre Channel StoreOnce
Optional Hardware kits for PCIe slots 5 and 6?
NOTE:
The same Optional Hardware configuration must apply to all nodes in the cluster. If you require Fibre
Channel connectivity, you must plan to install Fibre Channel cards in PCIe slots 5 and 6 of all nodes.
For example, a two-couplet cluster will require eight Fibre Channel cards (2 x 4 nodes).
Speed of FC connection required, 8 Gb or 16 Gb?...............................
Verify Power/PDU requirements

5. Do you intend to create StoreOnce Catalyst stores as backup targets over Ethernet ?............
Do you intend to create StoreOnce Catalyst stores as backup targets over FC?............
Do you intend to use Federated Catalyst?........................
For StoreOnce Catalyst FC, decide how many FC logins will be required from the clients............
Which backup application are you using? ..........................................................................
If Symantec, have you installed the appropriate StoreOnce Catalyst OST plugin on the Media
Servers? ...............
Verify network requirements
Network requirements must be defined and sufficient physical connections on switches and IP addresses
must be available.
IMPORTANT:
It is essential that the information in the following section is completed and given to HPE Support
Services before the install. The installation cannot proceed unless all networking parameters are known
and the network infrastructure to support the required configuration is in place.
Your HPE service specialist will provide you with a record of the Virtual IP addresses after the network
configuration has been completed. You will use the Virtual IP addresses to connect to the StoreOnce
Management Console (from the GUI or CLI) and to configure backup and replication targets.
Procedure
1. Confirm the network cabling meets requirements.
1 GbE networks: verify that the cabling is CAT5E or CAT6 copper with RJ45 connectors?...............
10 GbE network: what cabling is used for the 10 GbE Ethernet connections (optical or copper)?..............
(Optical SFP+ transceivers are supplied with the product and with 10 GbE SFP Optional Hardware Kits.)
2. Do you wish to configure all eight potential nodes in the cluster at installation (recommended)?...................
If not, how many are to be configured?..............................
3. Will your configuration implement 10 GbE Network StoreOnce Optional Hardware in PCIe slots 5 and 6?
NOTE:
If you use the Optional Hardware slots for 10 GbE cards, you cannot install Fibre Channel cards. The
same Optional Hardware configuration must apply to all nodes in the cluster.

6. The number of physical ports and requirement that ports are bonded restricts the number of available Port
Sets. Decide how Management and Data subnets will be assigned to port sets.
Port set used for Management subnet Port sets used for Data
a. Which ports will be used to connect to the Data subnets? For example, both 10 GbE Ethernet ports for
backup to StoreOnce target devices and two of the 1 GbE Ethernet ports for replication and StoreOnce
Catalyst Copy.
Ports used for back up to target devices ......................
Ports used for Replication and/or StoreOnce Catalyst Copy ......................
b. What network bonding mode will be used for each data port set?................
c. Will each data port set be VLAN enabled?............
d. Are jumbo Frame sizes required? (default = 1500 bytes, minimum = 1280 bytes, maximum = 9000
bytes)...............
a. Which ports will be used to connect to the Management subnet? (normally two or more of the 1 GbE
Ethernet ports)......................
b. What IP address will be used for the Virtual Management Interface (to connect to the StoreOnce

d. Are jumbo Frame sizes required? (default = 1500 bytes, minimum = 1280 bytes, maximum = 9000
bytes)...............
e. Is static routing required for the Management or Data subnet?? ......................
f. If yes, how many? (Up to 10 IPv4 and IPv6 static routes may be configured.)............................
7. Have you calculated the total IP addresses required for your configuration? .............................
To calculate this value, you must first define all subnets that will be configured for each port set.
8. Do you intend to use Data In Flight encryption?.......................
You will require a Security Pack license installed on all couplets in the cluster.
IMPORTANT:
Data in flight encryption is intended to be used to secure links between data centers for StoreOnce
Replication or Low-Bandwidth Catalyst Copy operations. Using Data In Flight Encryption for direct
backup operations to the StoreOnce appliance over a local network is not supported due to the
performance impact of the encryption. IPSEC is not supported for use on IPv6 subnets
Verify Fibre Channel requirements
If you are using VTL for backup, Fibre Channel connection is required. It is also required if you wish to use
StoreOnce Catalyst over Fibre Channel on your system.
Procedure
1. Have you ordered the required number of Fibre Channel StoreOnce Optional Hardware kits for PCIe slots
5 and 6?
NOTE:
The same Optional Hardware configuration must apply to all nodes in the cluster. If you require Fibre
Channel connectivity, you must plan to install Fibre Channel cards in PCIe slots 5 and 6 of all nodes.
For example, a two-couplet cluster will require eight Fibre Channel cards (2 x 4 nodes).
2. Is Fibre Channel configured correctly for Virtual Tape Libraries (VTL) and/or StoreOnce Catalyst and does
the configuration support failover?

Connecting to your network
What is a Virtual Interface (VIF)?
Each couplet is a paired combination of two nodes that are directly connected in failover pairs. If one node
fails, the system is designed to failover to the other node without any external interaction from the customer.
The StoreOnce System uses a concept called a Virtual Interface (VIF) to make failover possible.
•
•
The physical IP addresses relate to the physical ports that are used to connect the StoreOnce System to
the external network.
The Virtual Interface (VIF) addresses are the IP addresses that the customer uses to connect to the
StoreOnce System. Because these IP addresses are never directly linked to a physical port, they continue
to function correctly if a node fails.
Types of VIF address
There are two instances of VIF addresses: the Cluster Management IP address and Data VIF IPs.
•
Cluster Management IP address:
The Cluster Management IP address is the address that you use to access the StoreOnce Management
functions. Because the Cluster Management IP address is dynamic on the system, it can be active on the
master node and passive on the other nodes. If the master node fails for any reason, the Virtual
Management Console simply moves to another node and can still be accessed using the same Cluster
Management IP address.
•
There is only one Cluster Management IP address per StoreOnce System (the cluster), but each node
requires a physical connection to the Management subnet and the Cluster Management VIF IP address
must be in the same subnet range as the Management subnet. Assuming that the Management Console
requires access to the external network (to allow access to the StoreOnce CLI and GUI), the Management
subnet must use the same IP address protocol as the DNS servers.
Data VIF IPs:
The Data VIF IP addresses are the IP addresses that you use to configure Catalyst and NAS backup
targets, VTL and NAS replication configurations, and Catalyst copy jobs.
The Data VIF IP address is associated to a service set, which is the set of services (VTL, NAS, StoreOnce
Catalyst, Catalyst Copy, replication, and so on), available for a node. If the physical node fails, the service
set will failover to the other node in the couplet, and the Data VIF IP address will also failover to be used
by the corresponding physical ports on the other node. No change is needed to the IP address of the
service set, allowing hosts and the StoreOnce System to function correctly. Each couplet has two nodes
and, therefore, two service sets. The number of Data VIF IP addresses per service set depends upon the
number and type of data subnets that have been configured.
Ethernet connectivity supported
•
•
•
•
20
IPv4 and IPv6 are supported.
IPv6 is available for low-bandwidth activities, low-bandwidth StoreOnce Catalyst backup, StoreOnce
Catalyst Copy. NFS NAS share creation and NAS/VTL Replication and the StoreOnce CLI and GUI. IPv4
is required for CIFS NAS share creation and high-bandwidth StoreOnce Catalyst backup. (VTL backup is
only available over FC.)
DNS is supported.
There may be only one Management subnet, which provides access to the StoreOnce CLI and GUI, and
that must be configured on a port set that is not VLAN enabled. The Management subnet is typically on a
1 GbE IPv4 or IPv6 network. If configured to do so, data may also be sent across this network.
Connecting to your network
NOTE:
A port set refers to the physical ports to which the subnet connects.
The number of physical ports available and the requirement for network bonding on each port set restricts
the number of port sets that can be created. For example: Management may be configured across one
pair of 1 GbE ports, and backups may be configured across the standard pair of 10 GbE network port.
StoreOnce Catalyst copy and replication may then be configured across the remaining pair of 1 GbE
Ethernet network ports.
NOTE:
StoreOnce Optional Hardware provides the facility to add a second pair of 10 GbE network ports to
each node, but only if Fibre Channel connection is not required.
•
•
•
•
•
•
Port sets that are not VLAN-enabled may be configured with one Subnet that uses the IPv4 protocol and
one subnet that uses the IPv6 protocol, which is referred to as dual stack IP configuration.
Port sets that are VLAN enabled may be configured with multiple virtual subnets and each VLAN tag can
support an IPv4 and an IPv6 subnet (up to a maximum of 128 VLANs across the whole cluster).
A network gateway may be optionally configured in all subnets. This default network gateway will attempt
to route any network traffic to IP addresses that are not in the configured subnets. If both IPv4 and IPv6
subnets are configured, one IPv4 and one IPv6 subnet must be designated as containing the default
gateway.
StoreOnce software supports Static Routing. This feature is available for the Management and Data
network subnets of HPE StoreOnce 6600 Systems. It may be required where a Data subnet is configured
for access across the WAN, and the Management subnet also requires access to a network that is not
accessible via the configured default gateway (which is on the Data subnet). An example would be where
the AD server is on an isolated management network subnet with routing restrictions.
The network configuration applies to all nodes in the cluster. For example, you cannot have separate
network configurations for each couplet in the cluster.
The IPSec protocol is supported for subnet Data In Flight encryption. This feature requires a Security Pack
license on each couplet in the cluster.
IMPORTANT:
Data in flight encryption is intended to be used to secure links between data centers for StoreOnce
Replication or Low-Bandwidth Catalyst Copy operations. Using Data In Flight Encryption for direct
backup operations to the StoreOnce appliance over a local network is not supported due to the
performance impact of the encryption.
•
IPSec cannot be configured on a management only subnet and it cannot be configured on an IPv6 subnet.
Ethernet connectivity not supported

Physical Ethernet connection requirements
Be aware of the following when preparing the network environment.
•
•
•
All network subnets must use bonded ports to ensure high availability if failover occurs. Incorrect cabling
can negate the high availability infrastructure of the product.
It is recommended that there are two switches for each network to which you are connecting.
For EACH bonded pair of cables, connect the first cable to Switch 1; connect the other cable to Switch 2.
For Mode 4 (LACP) bonding, this configuration is only possible if the two switches are joined via a Virtual
Switch Link.
Ethernet connectivity not supported
21
•
•
If using separate subnets for data and management and multiple external switches are used, these
switches must support a Multi-Chassis Link Aggregation protocol that is compatible with the rest of the
network switch infrastructure.
StoreOnce software allows you to define the amount of data contained in an Ethernet frame, the default it
1500 bytes. Larger size frames, often referred to as Jumbo frames, can improve performance of the Port
Set; the maximum is 9000 bytes. Smaller frames are also supported; the minimum is 1280 bytes.
IMPORTANT:
Other devices on the network (clients and switches) must also be configured to enable Jumbo
frames for transfer of frames larger than 1500 bytes to be possible and to avoid packets fragmenting
or dropping.
•
•
When using the 10 GbE network, optical SFP+ transceivers are supplied with the product and 10 GbE
Optional Hardware kit.
The 1 GbE ports have a RJ45 connection type; CAT6 is recommended, CAT5E is the minimum
requirement.
Number of physical ports required
The number of physical connections that are required depends upon the port sets that you intend to configure
for each subnet and the number of couplets in the system. Do not confuse this number with the number of IP
addresses required.

Add the totals in the appropriate column. For example, on a 4–couplet system with Management on two 1
GbE Ethernet ports, Data on the two standard 10 GbE ports and Data on two Optional Hardware 10 GbE
ports, 48 physical connections are required.
Network bonding modes
Each set of network ports on the appliance can be configured either on separate Subnets or in a bond with
each other (1 GbE and 10 GbE ethernet ports cannot be bonded together).
Three bonding modes are supported:
22
Number of physical ports required
•
Mode 1 (Active/Backup)
•
Mode 1 is the most simple bonding mode; it allows network traffic via one active port only and requires no
specific extra switch configuration. It is recommended for simple network connections. If the active network
link fails, then traffic moves to the backup port.
Mode 4 (IEEE 802.3ad Dynamic Link Aggregation)
This bonding mode is also known as LACP and requires a special external switch configuration. It provides
a link aggregation solution, increasing the bond physical bandwidth, but only works if all the ports in the
bond are connected to one switch or switches joined by an interswitch link. It is recommended when:
◦
◦
•
The customer wants to increase throughput to the StoreOnce appliance.
Trunks between switches on the customer network already use LACP mode.
The LACP protocol only works when it is configured on both the network switch and StoreOnce end of the
connection. Refer to your switch documentation for information on LACP configuration.
Mode 6 (Active Load Balancing)
This mode provides a load balance solution. It does not require specific external switch configuration but
does require the switch to allow ARP negotiation. It can be used in a 2–switch configuration.
This configuration is recommended for backup data performance and also for resiliency of both data and
management network connectivity. However, in some environments ARP packet negotiation may be
disabled within the network infrastructure, so this mode may not be appropriate.
NOTE:
When using bonded ports the full performance of bonded links are only realized if multiple host servers
are providing data, otherwise data will still use only one network path from the single server.
Subnets and IP address requirements
The total number of IP addresses that you require depends upon the number and type of subnets that you
configure, and the number of couplets that you have installed.
Use the following guidelines to develop a list of subnet details for the HPE Support engineer:
•
•
•
•
•
•
•
The Management subnet requires one IP address per node (as well as the Management VIF). This IP
address must be IPv4 or IPv6 and use the same protocol as DNS servers.
Dual stack IP configuration, where a subnet for IPv4 and a subnet for IPv6 may be configured on the
same Port Set, is supported for Data subnets or a Management with Data (Both) subnet.
Data subnets that are not VLAN enabled require one physical IP address per node and one virtual IP
address per node.
Data subnets that are VLAN enabled require one IP address per node and a VLAN tag ID.
When the network subnet is configured, you are prompted to provide an IP address for a gateway, which
will be used for routing management and/or data traffic to and from an external network. In addition, two
network subnets will be designated as containing the default gateways; one for IPv6 and one for IPv4
subnets.
StoreOnce software supports Static Routing. This feature is available for the Management and Data
network subnets of StoreOnce Systems. It may be required, if access to the StoreOnce management
interface is required from networks that are not accessible via the configured gateway on that network. For
example, it may be required, if the AD server is on an isolated management network subnet with routing
restrictions. Up to 10 IPv4 or IPv6 static IP addresses may be defined for the Management subnet.
A Domain Name is optional.
Subnets and IP address requirements
23
VLAN guidelines
•
•
•
•
•
•
•
The user can configure up to a total of 128 different VLAN Subnets on each StoreOnce System; the VLAN
Subnets may be consecutive or nonconsecutive.
It is not permitted to configure VLAN Subnets on a Port Set that uses Mode 6 network bonding or on a
Port Set that is used for Management.
Each VLAN tag interface is configured using the VLAN ID index, which is the same as the switch VLAN ID
number and must be an integer from 2 to 4094.
Each VLAN tag interface can be configured for use with one IPv4 and one IPv6 subnet.
For example: if a VLAN tag ID was configured for use with ports eth 0 and eth1 on IPv4, it can also be
configured for use on IPv6 with that Port Set. It cannot be used with any other Port Set.
VLAN tagging does not increase bandwidth because the bandwidth is bound by the physical speed of the
Port Set. The number of open streams is bound by the specification for the StoreOnce appliance.
StoreOnce monitoring is on the physical Port Set, not on each VLAN Subnet.
VLAN tagging is not a multitenancy solution. Once configured, all StoreOnce services can bind / listen to
all VLAN Subnets. For example, the NAS shares are available on all configured Subnets, and permissions
are required to regulate access to shares.
Reserved IP address range
The StoreOnce System uses the 10.154.x.x IP range for its internal network and this IP address range is not
available for the external network. If a customer network uses the 10.154.x.x IP range, it may cause conflict
and unpredictable results.
Firewalls
StoreOnce products require access to other StoreOnce products for Replication or Catalyst Copy operations
or restores to clients from StoreOnce Catalyst stores or NAS Shares. Customers may have firewall settings
that restrict network access to allow only certain traffic through the network.
It is recommended that all of the IP addresses configured for the StoreOnce cluster, which includes both
physical and virtual IPs for source and target, are allowed within the firewall settings to ensure network
connectivity.
24
VLAN guidelines
Fibre Channel connection
Fibre Channel considerations
IMPORTANT:
If you require VTL target libraries or StoreOnce Catalyst over Fibre Channel, you must purchase one of
the Fibre Channel Optional Hardware kits.
VTL library emulation is supported only on Fibre Channel; StoreOnce Catalyst stores are supported on
Ethernet and Fibre Channel. NAS is not supported on Fibre Channel. The StoreOnce Management Console
and some of the other StoreOnce features, such as replication and Catalyst Copy, always require an Ethernet
connection. When using FC to back up hosts, you must also connect to an Ethernet port.
Care must be taken to ensure that there is no single point of failure in switch or fabric zoning that will negate
the failover capabilities of the StoreOnce System and its autonomic restart ability.
Conformance to the following rules will help to ensure successful failover
•
Fibre Channel switches used with StoreOnce Systems must support NPIV. The preferred topology uses
NPIV (N_Port ID Virtualization). Direct attach (private loop) and direct attach (point to point) topologies are
not supported. For a full list, see http://www.hpe.com/info/ebs
.
NOTE:
The HP Brocade SAN Switches support NPIV natively but the Cisco SAN Switches require that it is
turned on on each port used
•
•
•
•
•
StoreOnce Catalyst over Fibre Channel functions the same as StoreOnce Catalyst over Ethernet. The
backup application will not perceive a difference. However, some configuration is required to set up the
backup and restore connections between the ports on the StoreOnce System and the ports on the client
servers. This configuration is done using the Fibre Channel Settings tab on the StoreOnce GUI.
Virtual library devices are assigned to an individual interface. Therefore, for best performance, configure
FC ports and balance the virtual devices across interfaces to ensure that one link is not saturated while
others are idle.
To keep the backup/restore environment simple and less susceptible to the effects of changing or
problematic SANs, use WWPN zoning (rather than port based).
Ensure that there are two switches in each fabric.
When using switched fabric mode, zone Fibre Channel devices on the switch so that they are accessible
only from a single backup server device. This ensures that other SAN events, such as the addition and
removal of other FC devices, do not cause unnecessary traffic to be sent to devices. It also ensures that
SAN polling applications cannot reduce the performance of individual devices.
FC Login Considerations with StoreOnce Catalyst
It is important to determine the number of concurrent backups and restore streams required for each port and,
where necessary, configure the StoreOnce System to accept the required number of FC logins from the
clients or hosts.
•
•
On Linux, it is possible that a single client HBA port talking to a single StoreOnce HBA port can open
multiple concurrent connections; that is backup and restore streams. However, Windows has a queue
depth of 1.
Catalyst over FC implements a multi-LUN solution to allow multiple simultaneous connections from a
Windows client. By presenting multiple LUNs a host port can open multiple simultaneous connections to a
Fibre Channel connection
25
target StoreOnce port. The Devices per Initiator Port value in the Fibre Channel Settings determines the
number of backup and restore connections that are allowed — for each client login — to that port on the
StoreOnce System. If multiple concurrent backup streams are required, increase this value. The maximum
allowed is 64.
If a StoreOnce target port is used ONLY for Linux backups, the Devices per Initiator Port can be left at
1.
If a StoreOnce target port is used for Windows backups the Devices per Initiator Port must be
calculated, as described in Table 14.
The number of paths available to a particular client is calculated as:
number of client ports
per initiator port
zoned * number of StoreOnce node ports zoned * devices

connections on Windows and HP-UX

VTL port assignment considerations
There are two FC cards for each node in a couplet and, therefore, four FC ports on each node. When creating
a library the user may select individual drives or FC ports 1 & 2, FC ports 3 & 4 or FC ports 1, 2, 3 & 4. Port 1
and port 3 are on the first FC card, which is in slot 6; port 2 and port 4 are on the second FC card, which is in
slot 5. It is important to ensure that the system has been cabled correctly when connecting to the FC SAN. If
the user wishes to select one of the combined port options, both FC cards must be connected.
Drives can only appear on one port, so when you choose a pair of ports, drives are automatically distributed
evenly across both ports to ensure best performance and failover. After creating the library, it is possible to
change the drive assignments using the Edit function on the Interface Information tab on the StoreOnce
Management Console for the selected library.
26
VTL port assignment considerations
Preparing for installation
Tools required
Ensure that a keyboard and monitor are available for use as a management console during the initial
configuration stage.
NOTE:
HPE does not recommend using a KVM installed in the rack because this will cause problems when a
second couplet is added. In a fully expanded rack, there is no space for locating a KVM within the rack.
Complete the checklists in the rest of this document and present them to the HPE service engineers when
they arrive to install and configure the system.
All other tools are provided by the HPE service specialist.

Licenses
There are two types of license:
•
•
Full license (not time limited)
Instant on or Demo (time limited to 90 days): This license allows you to try out StoreOnce Catalyst and
VTL and NAS Replication functionality before paying for a full license. (Security features, Optional
Hardware, and capacity expansion are not included in the Demo license.)
The StoreOnce System licensing requirements are:
•
•
All capacity expansion kits must be licensed. Each storage expansion kit contains a license that must be
loaded.
Each Optional Hardware card requires a license and all must be loaded before being activated.
A single-couplet HPE StoreOnce 6600 System requires four licenses; two for each server.
•
•
•
A fully expanded HPE StoreOnce 6600 System has eight nodes, which means that 16 licenses are
required.
No licensing is required for VTL or NAS emulations.
VTL and NAS replication requires a license (per couplet) on the target system.
StoreOnce Catalyst devices require a license for backup and for copy, so licenses must be installed on
both origin and destination systems. A StoreOnce Catalyst license, if necessary, must be installed on

•
every couplet in the cluster. Without a StoreOnce Catalyst license for each couplet, the StoreOnce
Catalyst feature is reported as unlicensed for the entire StoreOnce System.
Security features (Data at Rest Encryption, Data in Flight Encryption, and Secure Erase) require a Security
license. A Security license, if necessary, must be installed on every couplet in the cluster. If you do not add
a Security license for each couplet, the Security feature is reported as unlicensed for the entire StoreOnce
System.http://www.hpe.com/info/storeonce/docs
IMPORTANT:
Data in flight encryption is intended to be used to secure links between data centers for StoreOnce
Replication or Low-Bandwidth Catalyst Copy operations. Using Data In Flight Encryption for direct
backup operations to the StoreOnce appliance over a local network is not supported due to the
performance impact of the encryption.
User roles and accounts
Two roles define the permissions associated with a user; admin and user. Two default user accounts, one for
each role, are created automatically when the system is installed.
•
Administrator:
•
Admin users can create and edit management and StoreOnce functions via the GUI and CLI. The default
login and password are Admin and admin. The permissions role of the Administrator is admin.
Operator:
This account limits access to the GUI and CLI to monitoring and viewing. The default login and password
are Operator and operator. The permissions role of the Operator is user.
It is good practice to determine what other users will be required and what access to the system they require
as part of the planning process. In particular, will the StoreOnce System be added to an Active Directory
Domain?
The following AD domain details will be required to configure AD.
•
•
•
The AD domain name
The user name and password of the Domain Administrator or a delegated user with Domain Administrative
rights
The type of network used by the domain server, IPv4 or IPv6
Once the StoreOnce System has been joined to an AD domain, you can configure external users or external
groups on the StoreOnce System. The users or groups must exist on the AD domain. You can add AD
domain users or groups with access to all StoreOnce features or you can add them as Local Administrators
for the CIFS server only.
Only the name is required to configure AD users or groups on the StoreOnce System; passwords are
configured on the AD domain server.
