Questions & Answers
What is the HPE XP7 Mainframe Tiering Suite 1TB 251-500TB LTU (SKU: TK926AD)?
The HPE XP7 Mainframe Tiering Suite 1TB 251-500TB LTU (TK926AD) is a perpetual software license enabling automated, policy-based data tiering on HPE XP7 storage arrays with capacities from 251TB to 500TB.
Which HPE XP7 storage arrays support this tiering suite?
This tiering suite is compatible with all HPE XP7 arrays running Enginuity OS 5970 or later, enabling seamless integration of automated data movement between performance and capacity tiers.
What capacity does the 1TB 251-500TB LTU cover?
The license covers up to 1 TB of active tiering control for data stored in the 251 TB to 500 TB capacity range, allowing granular management of large mainframe data sets.
How does automated tiering improve storage efficiency?
Automated tiering moves less-active data to lower-cost media and keeps hot data on high-performance tiers, reducing overall storage costs while maintaining application performance.
What are the system requirements for installation?
You need an HPE XP7 array with Enginuity OS 5970+, an HMC (Hardware Management Console), and licensed host attachments; no additional hardware is required.
How is the tiering policy defined and managed?
Tiering policies are defined via the HMC GUI or CLI with SLAs, access frequency thresholds, and retention rules, and can be modified dynamically without service interruption.
Can I upgrade the license for larger capacities?
Yes. You can purchase additional LTU licenses in 1 TB increments to expand the tiering capacity beyond 500 TB, subject to array and OS compatibility.
What installation and configuration support is available?
HPE provides detailed installation guides, online knowledge base articles, and optional ProLiant Care or Datacenter Care support services for deployment and troubleshooting.
How does this suite affect mainframe performance?
By automatically relocating infrequently accessed data to cost-optimized tiers, the suite reduces I/O contention on high-performance disks and improves overall transaction throughput.
Is the tiering solution non-disruptive to applications?
Yes. The HPE XP7 Tiering Suite performs background data movement without application downtime, ensuring continuous service availability.
What security features are included?
Tiered data inherits all XP7 security controls, including encryption at rest via HPE Secure Encryption and role-based access controls managed through the HMC.
How does the suite integrate with existing backup and replication?
Automated tiering is transparent to HPE replication solutions; snapshot and replication jobs reference data pointers and continue to function without reconfiguration.
What typical use cases benefit from this solution?
Ideal use cases include large-scale mainframe environments with variable access patterns—such as financial transaction archives, batch processing data, and seasonal workload spikes.
What is the warranty and maintenance commitment?
The LTU is covered under HPE’s standard software warranty and entitles you to any minor updates for the licensed OS version; extended support is available through Care Pack services.
How can I obtain pricing or place an order?
Contact your authorized HPE reseller or visit the HPE online store for a formal quote, specifying SKU TK926AD and your desired support level.
