billing and VMware environments in a single array and added a separate array to ensure adequate
performance.

Which HP Storage solution should you recommend to meet the requirements of city?

Which HP 3PAR InForm Operating System feature provides the ability to analyze how volumes on
the array are using physical disk space and makes intelligent adjustments to maintain optimal
volume distribution when new hardware is added to the system?
