•  Flexibility I/O Modules - The S5800T supports up to 12 I/O modules with 48 I/O bi-directional ports that enable Huawei Symantec storage systems to adjust I/O between front-end host connectivity and back-end storage modules, maximizing ROI, performance, and SLAs.
•  SSD I/O Performance - Every application has a specific set of requirements and SLAs that must be met and the T-Series provides SSD caching to tune solutions for maximum IOPs and support for high concurrency of user requests, data base indexing, and maximum bandwidth delivery.  
•  SmartCache I/O Optimization - SmartCache supports up to 96Gb of cache to dynamic monitoring technology to control hotspots in HDD storage and automatically migrates and caches it to SSD, to optimize application performance and better meet SLAs.

Storage for Consolidation, Virtualization and Cloud Apps
•  Virtual I/O Consolidation - The Unified Systems Architecture technology can significantly increase the density of I/O modules and ports in a single enclosure, and provide a flexible number of proportioning and slots for layout of front-end and back-end I/O modules.
•  Maximize VM Density - The T-Series is designed to increase the number of VMs per storage system with its multi-dimensional tiered I/O architecture.  SmartCache enables higher VM density per array by dynamically migrating I/O for the most accessed and mobile VMs.
•  Multi-Fabric Host Connectivity for VM Mobility - One of the keys to VM mobility is access to shared and common I/O to provide the same levels of performance, data protection and security.  This requires a storage system that can support multiple host and fabric connectivity for SAN with 8Gb FC and 1/10Gb iSCSI.

Modular Efficiency and High Availability
•  Unified IO Modules - One of the fundamental tenets of the Unified Systems Architecture is the use of common, hot-swap modules for disk expansion, power supplies, cooling fans, battery backup, and other key components that reduce TCO, increase availability and improve serviceability.
•  High Density Expansion Modules 24 Disk Slots -The T-Series leverages high-density disk enclosures (24 disks per enclosure) in a 2U footprint to reduce expansion cost by 60% compared to low-density enclosures.
•  Flexible Tiered Storage Strategy - Huawei Symantec knows that one size does not fit all in the storage world. The S5800T enables IT managers to choose from a wide variety of I/O devices to meet any performance and cost or capacity need, with support for NL-SAS, SAS, SATA and SSD devices.
•  Advanced Data Protection - The T-Series is equipped with RAID 6, Precopy and automated disk sector repair technology to prevent data loss before a drives fails. 
•  2.3 PB of Cloud Scale Capacity - The S5800T supports up to 1152  of  NL-SAS, SAS, SATA or SSD devices for up to 2.3 PB of storage.  This type of capacity is required to support the most demanding applications and cloud deployments.

Green Eco-I/O
•  Increased Storage Density - The ability of the Unified Systems Architecture to support high-density disk expansion reduces data center cooling, rack space and power consumption by up to 50%.
•  Efficient I/O with Drive Spin-Down -  The T-Series supports the ability to spin down disk devices, based on RAID group workload, which can reduce power costs by 40%.
•  Intelligent 16-Step Power and Cooling - One of the management features of the Unified Systems Architecture is the ability to power manage many of the individual components to reduce overall cost. This includes our 16-Step fans and cooling modules which enable IT managers to reduce power cooling and noise levels in the data center. 
•  Intelligent CPU Speed Adjusting - The T-Series systems can adjust the CPU clock-speed and CPU cores used to reduce power costs and right-size the I/O for the level of workload.

Symantec Storage & Management Software
•  Enterprise Management - Huawei and Symantec have a long history in enterprise-class management solutions, and the management tools provided with the Oceanspace T-Series are no exception.  Using ISM (Integrated Storage Management), IT managers will be able to control every aspect of their storage environment.
•  Automated Deployment- The Oceanspace ISM GUI is an intuitive, easy to use storage management tool.  Volumes can be deployed and provisioned to the SAN through automated Wizards thus minimizing administrator interaction.
•  Remote Management - Business is global and so are IT systems.  ISM's remote management tools allow IT managers to control access, deploy configurations and set parameters across the globe.  ISM remote manager will also enable key physical (Alarms, Flashing Lights) and logical management (smart phone, pagers, texting, email and online upgrades) tools to help IT managers diagnose and repair problems, even when working across the globe.
•  Advanced Data Protection and Management Applications - The T-Series provides a family of data protection (snapshots, replication (Sync & Async), LUN copy) and data management (Multi-Pathing, ISM and Disk Gaurd) to ensure business and regulatory compliance, lower operational cost, and that SLAs are met for every application.

•  ISM Remote Management - Business is global and so are IT systems.  ISM's remote management tools allow IT managers to control access, deploy configurations and set parameters across the globe.  ISM remote manager will also enable key physical (Alarms, Flashing Lights) and logical management (smart phone, pagers, texting, email and online upgrades) tools to help IT managers even when working across the globe.
•  HyperImage Snapshots - When it comes to rapid PIT (Point-In-Time) backup and restore operations snapshot technology is the benchmark application for storage systems. The HyperImage software provides up to 2048 snapshots on a single system.  HyperImage can provide full image copies, delta change snapshots, and has the ability to synthesize many snaps into a new hybrid snap to save on disk space.
•  HyperCopy LUN Copy - One of the key tools for data management, systems migration and application mobility is a fast and efficient LUN copy application. HyperCopy is able to perform online copies so the LUN can be used during the copy process. It also supports throttling levels to enable the array to still meet SLAs during copy/migration projects. 
•  HyperMirror Synchronous & Asynchronous Remote Replication - HyperMirror provides two vital functions for IT managers.  It enables multiple sites to share data for round-the-clock IT operations and it is a vital tool in preparing for disaster recovery scenarios.  In Synchronous mode, HyperMirror is able to maintain an exact, real-time copy of your storage data in a secure manner to remote locations. In Asynchronous mode, it is able to produce cost-effective remote replication to meet recovery point objectives (RPO) of under 60 minutes. HyperMirror provides host-independent synchronization and can be used across all OSs and applications.
•  HostAgent Data Protection Manager - HostAgent Data Protection Manager provides a host-based application for managing, configuring snapshots and replication volumes.  Based on policy, regulatory and compliance requirements, older snap shots and replication volumes can be cleaned up and disk space recovered.
•  UltraPath Multi-Pathing Software - UltraPath is a powerful heterogeneous multi-pathing application that supports SAN host connectivity with Huawei Symantec storage systems.  It enables IT managers to specify and select alternate paths for your data in the event of a network failure. Residing on the host, UltraPath multi-pathing enhances SAN performance and application availability by eliminating network failures between the host and storage.  UltraPath's multiple-pathing capabilities, automatic load balancing, and path failover functions provide complete path management.
•  DiskGuard Volume Manager - Huawei Symantec Oceanspace DiskGuard data backup software protects data and operating systems. DiskGuard provides comprehensive protection and quick recovery of data for various applications such as Oracle, DB2, SQL Server, Informix, Sybase, and Exchange.
