The HP 3PAR storage system, as the storage component in a VMware virtual infrastructure, holds virtual machine information for a protected site/location and recovery site/location. HP 3PAR Site Recovery Adapter (SRA) is an important integration component that communicates with HP 3PAR StoreServ to execute specific storage and HP 3PAR Remote Copy functions needed for VMware vCenter Site Recovery Manager operations. 4 Introduction 2 VMware vCenter Site Recovery Manager overview VMware vCenter Site Recovery Manager works as a plug-in component for VMware vCenter and integrates its functionality in VMware vCenter. VMware vCenter Site Recovery Manager: • Builds, manages, tests, and executes disaster recovery solutions for virtual infrastructure implementations. • Uses the storage replication mechanism between the protected site and the recovery site for disaster recovery of protected site virtual infrastructure. • Creates a recovery point objective by creating a protection group at the protected site. The protection group contains replicated virtual machines. • Creates a recovery plan at the recovery site for the protection group at the protection site. The recovery plan can be tested at any time at the recovery site to verify that recovery point objective can be achieved at the time of disaster. ◦ ◦ The recovery plan can be executed at disaster time or at any desired time at the recovery site to guarantee that recovery point objective is met. 5 The VMware vCenter Site Recovery Manager communicates with HP 3PAR Remote Copy Software for storage replication through the HP 3PAR SRA. The HP 3PAR SRA provides information about Remote Copy volume groups that exist in HP 3PAR StoreServ to Site Recovery Manager. The Site Recovery Manager identifies datastores and RDM devices in the Remote Copy volume group (also referred to as consistency groups). These datastores and RDM devices have corresponding virtual volumes in the Remote Copy volume group and replicates between the protected site and the recovery site. 6 VMware vCenter Site Recovery Manager overview 3 Supported configurations For information about the supported hardware and software platforms, see the Single Point of Connectivity Knowledge for HP Storage Products (SPOCK) website:http://www.hp.com/storage/ spock. 7 4 HP 3PAR SRA installation and configuration prerequisites HP 3PAR SRA is packaged in MSI format and installed onto the host where VMware vCenter Site Recovery Manager is installed. • HP 3PAR SRA requires the following companion packages to be installed on the host before installation: ◦ VMware Site Recovery Manager 5.0, 5. 1 , or 5.5 ◦ Microsoft .NET Framework 4.0 ◦ Microsoft Visual C++ 2010 Redistributable Package (x64) • HP 3PAR SRA requires the following configurations on the HP 3PAR storage system: All LUNs used by VMware Virtual Machines to form a protection group that are failed over together during test and recovery have to be part of a single HP 3PAR Remote Copy ◦ group. For more information about setting up and configuring Remote Copy group, see the HP 3PAR Remote Copy Software User's Guide. ◦ All members of a virtual volume set must belong to the same Remote Copy group. ◦ HP 3PAR Remote Copy Software license on the HP 3PAR storage system. ◦ HP 3PAR Virtual Copy Software license on the HP 3PAR storage system. ◦ HP 3PAR Storage system CLI user with edit permission. ◦ In an SLD configuration with three HP 3PAR StoreServ Storage systems (A, B, and C), A—B is configured in synchronous mode, A—C in asynchronous periodic mode, and B—C is the standby link in asynchronous periodic mode. Then, SRM/SRA must be configured between A—C only, implying that StoreServ A is configured in the protected site and StoreServ C is configured in the recovery site. NOTE: HP 3PAR SRA installation adds the SRA\3PARInServ folder to VMware vCenter Site Recovery Manager storage folder (for example, C:\Program Files (x64)\VMware\VMware vCenter Site Recovery Manager\storage) and TPDSrm.exe is the adapter driver program that is invoked by VMware vCenter Site Recovery Manager. 8 HP 3PAR SRA installation and configuration prerequisites 5 Installing HP 3PAR SRA You cannot upgrade to HP 3PAR SRA 5.5.2 from an earlier version. Therefore, you must remove the earlier version before installing HP 3PAR SRA 5.5.2. If HP 3PAR SRA 5.5. 1 is installed, then run the following command before you remove SRA 5.5. 1 : TPDSrm.exe removecert—To delete the accepted HP 3PAR StoreServ certificate from the cache memory. Removing HP 3PAR SRA To remove HP 3PAR SRA, do the following: 1 . Log on as system administrator. 2. Click Start→Control Panel→Programs and Features. 3. Select HP 3PAR SRA Software Version <x.x>. 4. Click Remove. The Program Maintenance dialog box appears. 5. Select Remove and click Next. Installing HP 3PAR SRA 5.5.2 To install HP 3PAR SRA 5.5.2, do the following: 1 . Double-click the installation executable to launch the installation wizard. Click Next to continue. NOTE: HP 3PAR SRA and SRM must be installed on the same host. 2. Click I Agree to acknowledge the User License Agreement, and click Next to continue. 3. Click Next to start installation at the default path. 4. After the installation is complete, restart the VMware vCenter Site Recovery Manager service to ensure that HP 3PAR SRA is recognized by SRM. NOTE: This package can only be installed under the existing VMware® vCenter Site Recovery Manager™installed path. No other installation location is provided as an option. Verifying installation To verify the installation of HP 3PAR SRA 5.5.2: 1 . Click Start →Control Panel→Programs and Features. 2. Verify that HP 3PAR SRA Software Version 5.5.2 appears in the Currently installed programs column. Removing HP 3PAR SRA 9 6 HP 3PAR storage system setup Any HP 3PAR storage system acting as an array manager (at the protected site or at the recovery site) in VMware vCenter Site Recovery Manager setup must be configured with HP 3PAR Remote Copy Software. HP 3PAR SRA supports synchronous and periodic replication modes in 1 : 1 , 1 :N, and N: 1 configurations as supported by HP 3PAR remote copy, where N indicates the number of storage arrays. HP 3PAR SRA also supports synchronous long distance configurations. For more information about uploads/Ingenierie_Lourd/ hp-sra-guide.pdf
