My boss is looking to replace our EVA5000 with an EVA6000. What are the major benefits in doing this? I have reviewed the specs and have not seen any considerable differences. Have I missed something?
Thanks for your help,
Dave

Re: Benifits of EVA6000 over EVA5000
Yes, a lot ;-)
The EVA [468][01]00 and 4400 are active/active storage arrays using industry standard failover mechanisms - no more Secure Path (except for HP-UX if you want dynamic load balancing).
Speed. I've recently migrated a number of servers from an EVA3000 to an EVA6100. Deletion of virtual disks took aaages on the 3000.
New features in Business Copy and Continuous Access.
For the EVA[468]100: the disk drive enclosures contain small 'cut-through switch' modules which provide much better fault isolation than the simple hubs on the older models.

Solution1. here are the presentation links to show you the differences:
http://www.asac.as/web/upload/ponencias/HP-EVA.pdf
2. and especialy this presentation page 15:
http://www.scribd.com/doc/2233504/EVA-Overview
in which you can see that eva 5000 (as an eva 8000/8100 ancestor has better iopses than eva 6000/6100)
3. but if eva 6000/6100 is your option it should be compared also to the eva 4400

Re: Benifits of EVA6000 over EVA5000
It will probably be costing as much for a years maintenance on an EVA5000 as it will to buy a new EVA6x00 which comes with 3 years support thrown in.
Cheers,
Rob

Re: Benifits of EVA6000 over EVA5000
That's why I'd expect that further qualifications will be stopped in the near future (no I don't have any insider information or dates).
