High-availability best-in-class multipathing software for HP Linux

MultiPulse software is a high-availability technology that provides failover and static load balancing capabilities for Emulex LightPulse® Fibre Channel Host Bus Adapters (HBAs) provided by HP. As a driver-based technology, MultiPulse has full visibility of the Storage Area Network (SAN), enabling superior SAN data availability, performance and HBA resource utilization.

End-to-end high availability

In today’s complex data center, multiple potential points of failure (fibre cables, connectors, switches, arrays, HBAs, etc.) can interrupt the end-to-end data path and curtail application availability.

Monitoring up to eight end-to-end data paths to each configured LUN, MultiPulse instantly reroutes traffic around a failed element and protects application availability. The administrator has the option to manually or automatically re-insert the path upon element resumption, providing instantaneous connectivity, bandwidth, and application availability.
