Fujitsu ETERNUS DX500 S3 - Manual

Fujitsu ETERNUS DX500 S3

The ETERNUS VSS Hardware Provider (VSSHP) is a software solution designed to enable Microsoft’s Volume Shadow Copy Service (VSS) functionality in ETERNUS Disk storage systems, facilitating online backup via snapshot technology. This system supports integration with Windows Server environments–including specific versions of the OS and server applications like Hyper-V, Exchange, SQL Server, Oracle Database, and others–to create reliable shadow copies for backup operations. Compatibility is defined across multiple hardware models (e.g., DX60, DX8000), host interfaces (FC, iSCSI, SAS), and virtualization platforms such as VMware vSphere, with version-specific requirements for both the VSSHP software and supported backup applications like CA ARCserve Backup or Symantec NetBackup. The guide also highlights critical considerations, including licensing needs, firmware levels, and operational constraints in clustered environments.
