HP StorageWorks Business Copy VA is an array-based software product that allows customers to create up to

1023 non-disruptive high-performance, local business copies of any active application volume or LUN for the

LUN copies can be used by another application or system for a variety of purposes, including batch processing

and backup. You can create up to 1023 Business Copy LUNs with the VA7000 family arrays. Business Copy VA

is fully integrated into and enabled through the HP Command View SDM software interface.
