Integrating seamlessly into existing backup applications and processes, the HP StorageWorks 6000 Virtual Library System accelerates backup performance in complex SAN environments while improving overall reliability. Emulating popular tape libraries and tape drives, the HP 6000 Virtual Library System matches the existing data protection environment, removing the need to change backup software or monitoring policies. By emulating multiple tape drives simultaneously, more backup jobs can be done in parallel resulting in reduced backup times. Additionally, because the data resides on disk, single file restores are exceptionally fast. The HP 6000 Virtual Library System simplifies your SAN environment by providing more virtual devices, reducing the complexity of shared storage while maintaining the manageability of a single system.
