HP P6000 Business Copy is a local replication application for the EVA P6000 family. It incorporates
Virtually Capacity-free Snapshot (Vsnaps), standard snapshots and Snapclone capabilities. P6000

disruptive backups, frequent snapshots of high value databases, and data mining. The bottom line
benefits include improved disk capacity utilization and increased business continuity, data availability, and
productivity savings. Additional features include licensing based on replicated (not total raw) capacity and
a new improved management interface.

the full EVA P6000 product family. By virtually removing the complexity associated with both small and
large replication environments, point-in-time copies and remote replication are managed and configured
with just a few mouse clicks. To assist the user, Information on the replication environment is presented in
a variety of views, including an interactive topology manager that allows each user to select their viewing
preference. In addition, HP Replication Solutions Manager provides a scripting interface for additional
flexibility. HP Replication Solutions Manager is included as part of the P6000 Command View media kit.
