What is Hitachi ShadowImage?

ShadowImage is a full copy snapshot technology. This copy can be used for backup, development, or recovery purposes, without impacting the production volume. As you are writing to your primary volume, updates are being duplicated to the secondary volume. This happens in real time and continues throughout the pair relationship.

Hitachi Universal Replicator Journal Groups and Paths

View this short video to learn about journal groups and replication path components of Hitachi Universal Replicator (HUR). Journal groups play a key role in the replication of data between the primary storage system and secondary storage system. To replicate data, HUR uses bidirectional logical paths using Fibre Channel or iSCSI links. One important property of HUR is that in the event of link failure, the pairs will remain in PAIR state until the journal volumes are full.

What is Global-Active Device?

Global-active device is a data-mirroring technology of the Hitachi Storage Virtualization Operating System. Copies can be stored at two locations and because they are active/active, both copies can be read from and written to simultaneously. Global-active device enables a virtual storage machine that provides a logical abstract layer that hides the physical attributes of the arrays from the hosts

Purpose of the Global Active-Device Quorum

Global-active device is a data-mirroring feature of Hitachi Storage Virtualization Operating System. During a site disaster or with certain component failures, global-active device requires a tie-breaker of sorts to maintain data consistency between the two copies. This is the role of the quorum disk, which is simply a small volume on a third array, or even a disk in a server presented to the two global-active device storage systems.

Adaptive Data Reduction in the Hitachi Storage Virtualization Operating System – Pattern Detection and Removal

Adaptive Data Reduction technology in Hitachi Storage Virtualization Operating System (SVOS) delivers lower cost and capacity savings. Pattern detection and removal scans incoming data, looking for duplicate 8kB chunks that meet predefined patterns, and they are never written. Instead, a small amount of metadata is created. This provides capacity savings since data that matches one of the predefined patterns does not need to be stored. Pattern detection and removal also avoids a write operation, which thereby prolongs flash media life

Adaptive Data Reduction in the Hitachi Storage Virtualization Operating System – Compression

Adaptive Data Reduction technology in Hitachi Storage Virtualization Operating System (SVOS) delivers lower cost and capacity savings. Combines replication technologies to reduce cost of data storage by increasing efficiency. Compression is applied on raw, incoming data, and reduces its size by applying an algorithm. When compression is done by the flash module drives, it is referred to as accelerated compression as there is no impact to performance.
