Chapter 2: Use Case Components Navisphere Management Suite EMC PowerPath The Navisphere Management Suite of integrated software tools allows you to manage, discover, monitor, and configure EMC CLARiiON systems as well as control all platform replication applications from a simple, secure, web-based management console. Navisphere Management Suite enables you to access and manage all CLARiiON advanced software functionality—including EMC Navisphere Quality of Service Manager, Navisphere Analyzer, SnapView, SAN Copy, and MirrorView. When used with other EMC storage management software, you gain storage resource, SAN, and replication management functionality—for greater efficiency and control over CLARiiON storage infrastructure. EMC PowerPath is a server-resident software that enhances performance and application availability. PowerPath works with the storage system to intelligently manage I/O paths, and supports multiple paths to a logical device. In this solution, PowerPath manages I/O paths and provides: • Automatic failover in the event of a hardware failure. PowerPath automatically detects path failure and redirects I/O to another path. • Dynamic multipath load balancing. PowerPath intelligently distributes I/O requests to a logical device across all available paths, thus improving I/O performance and reducing management time and downtime by eliminating the need to configure paths statically across logical devices. PowerPath enables customers to standardize on a single multipathing solution across their entire environment. EMC NetWorker EMC NetWorker software comprises a high-capacity, easy-to-use data storage management solution that protects and helps to manage data across an entire network. NetWorker simplifies the storage management process and reduces the administrative burden by automating and centralizing data storage operations. NetWorker Module for Oracle (NMO) NMO provides the capability to integrate database and file system backups, to relieve the burden of backup from the database administrator while allowing the administrator to retain control of the restore process. NMO includes the following features: • Automatic database storage management through automated scheduling, autochanger support, electronic tape labeling, and tracking. • Support for backup to a centralized backup server. • High performance through support for multiple, concurrent high-speed devices, such as digital linear tape (DLT) drives. EMC NetWorker, together with the NetWorker Module for Oracle, provides tight integration with Oracle RMAN and seamlessly uses a Data Domain deduplication appliance as an NFS target for RMAN backups. These elements create a fast, efficient, and nondisruptive backup that offloads the backup burden from the production RAC environment.

Chapter 2: Use Case Components EMC SnapView SnapView is a storage-system-based software application that allows you to create a copy of a LUN by using either clones or snapshots. A clone is an actual copy of a LUN and takes time to create, depending on the size of the source LUN. A snapshot is a virtual point-in-time copy of a LUN and takes only seconds to create. SnapView has the following important benefits: • Allows full access to a point-in-time copy of your production data with modest impact on performance and without modifying the actual production data. • For decision support or revision testing, provides a coherent, readable and writeable copy of real production data. • For backup, practically eliminates the time that production data spends offline or in hot backup mode, and it offloads the backup overhead from the production server to another server. • Provides a consistent replica across a set of LUNs. You can do this by performing a consistent fracture, which is a fracture of more than one clone at the same time, or a fracture that you create when starting a session in consistent mode. • Provides instantaneous data recovery if the source LUN becomes corrupt. You can perform a recovery operation on a clone by initiating a reverse synchronization and on a snapshot session by initiating a rollback operation. Oracle Database 11g Enterprise Edition Oracle Database 11g Enterprise Edition delivers industry-leading performance, scalability, security, and reliability on a choice of clustered or single servers running Windows, Linux, and UNIX. It provides comprehensive features to easily manage the most demanding transaction processing, business intelligence, and content management applications. Oracle Database 11g Enterprise Edition comes with a wide range of options to help grow your business and meet users' performance, security, and availability service level expectations. Oracle Database 11g RAC Oracle Real Application Clusters (RAC) is an optional feature of Oracle Database 11g Enterprise Edition. Oracle RAC supports the transparent deployment of a single database across a cluster of servers, providing fault tolerance from hardware failures or planned outages. If a node in the cluster fails, Oracle continues running on the remaining nodes. If more processing power is needed, you can add new nodes to the cluster to provide horizontal scaling. Oracle RAC supports mainstream business applications of all kinds, including Online Transaction Processing (OLTP) and Decision Support System (DSS). Oracle ASM Oracle Automatic Storage Management (ASM) is an integrated database filesystem and disk manager that reduces the complexity of managing the storage for the database. The ASM filesystem and volume management capabilities are built into the Oracle database kernel. In addition to providing performance and reliability benefits, ASM can also increase database availability because disks can be added or removed without shutting down the database. ASM automatically rebalances the database files across an ASM diskgroup after disks have been added or removed.
