To show how easy the EVA is to manage when tested against comparable EMC and NetApp storage devices. This time we took the challenge to highschool students who have never configured storage to see how intuitive each storage device was --- and EVA was the clear winner.

  • Good Video...

  • This is good news for many smart managers.....now they can hire high-school students to administrate huge storages!!!

  • icc4it.co.uk for all eva

  • Jeeez, pathetic. The EVA is n-2 technology. And this ease of use garbage is old news. Who cares how easy it is to create a LUN when you don't even know what a LUN is. Tell me this, how can I migrate data from FC to ATA drives without bringing the host down? How do I add iSCSI ports? How can I do a data-in-place upgrade from and EVA4100 to and EVA4400? How can I create a thin LUN? What's the performance impact of expanding my pool or LUN?

  • this is the most funny test HP conduct. Do we really care?  How many percent HP captured in storage market? What a joke, you know HP Stand for what High price at half performance

  • With the proper training and experience, I am sure they can, but the UC 420S class from HP is not an entry level class and requires a strong back ground in server administration, and a basic understanding of Fibre channel.

  • I disagree. Did they properly configure the fibre channel switch ? Did they configure the disk groups properly? Can they do a SAN controller upgrade? Any one can follow a procedure written by an expert, but can they isolate and troubleshoot a path that is down, or a MPIO issue?

  • If highschool can do it - with no storage experience besides a short class to get them up to speed on test terminonogy - then it is clear that you do not have to be a storage expert to use an EVA. Yet, you get all of the features and capabilities that is needed to take care of your business.
