NOTE:
The iSCSI communication path is transparent to the application, application server, and Windows Explorer.
The application, application server, and Windows Explorer believe the data is stored on the application
server. So, to view the application data, you must navigate to the iSCSI LUN(s) on the application server,
not the LUN(s) on your HP All-in-One Storage System, using Windows Explorer.
ASM provides automated data migration for Exchange and SQL Server. ASM discovers Exchange
storage group and SQL Server database components and hosts the storage components you select
through the storage-allocation wizards. ASM automatically migrates the data for the selected storage
components to your HP All-in-One Storage System. ASM also configures the application to read and
write data for the hosted storage component to the iSCSI LUNs created on the application server by
ASM.
ASM does not provide automated data migration for user-defined application servers. You must
manually migrate the application data to your HP All-in-One Storage System after using the Host a
User-Defined Application Wizard to allocate and configure storage space. See
"Migrating user-defined application data from a remote
application" on page 86 for more information.
You must also configure the application to read and write data to the iSCSI LUN created on the
application server by ASM. See the application's documentation for more information.

Managing storage for shared folders

With ASM, you can set up and monitor top-level shared folders (file shares) using the Create a Shared
Folder Wizard. The wizard suggests a default storage size for each shared folder, plus default
advanced configuration settings, such as RAID level. You can customize all the defaults to fit your
storage needs.
For shared folder storage, ASM creates a LUN on your HP All-in-One Storage System to hold the
shared folder and then creates the shared folder (see
Figure
17). Shared folders whose storage is
configured with the same RAID level are created on the same LUN.
