Re: SMP support for P4000 VSA?

I have been asked by HP Support to add a second CPU to my VSA instances. Specifically to improve snapshot response time. They also asked me to add extra memory, though it seems to only use a specific amount based on storage capacity. With 8.5 it maxxed out at 4G. I don't think I've tried any more on 9.0, but it doesn't use the full 4G so I haven't bothered.

Good info, thx!

 

I am currently running mine with 4GB of RAM, but the utilization rarely goes over 25% so far in my testing. I haven't worked with snapshots and restriping operations yet.
