HP D2D250x Series
•
Each HP D2D2502 Target Appliance can support up to four Source Appliances.
•
Each HP D2D2503 Target Appliance can support up to six Source Appliances.
•
Each HP D2D2504 Target Appliance can support up to eight Source Appliances.
Each share or library on the Target Appliance must be uniquely mapped to one share or library
on a Source Appliance. For example: a company has 6 remote sites and a Data Center. Four of
the remote sites have one device (library or share) each that requires replicating; two have two
devices (libraries or shares) each. This means that 8 corresponding devices are required on the
HP D2D2504 Target Appliance in the Data Center.

HP D2D4xxx Series
•
Each HP D2D4004/4009 or HP D2D4106 Target Appliance can support up to 16 Source
Appliances.
•
Each HP D2D4112 Target Appliance can support up to 24 Source Appliances.
•
Each HP D2D4312 Target Appliance can support up to 50 Source Appliances.
•
Each HP D2D4324 Target Appliance can support up to 50 Source Appliances.
Shares may only be mapped on a one-to-one basis, but each library on the Target Appliance may
be mapped to a maximum of 4 libraries on each Source Appliance. In other words, one Source
Share may be mapped into a single HP D2D 4xxx Series Target Share; up to four Source Libraries
may be mapped into a single HP D2D 4xxx Series Target Library.
For example: a research establishment has 5 remote sites, and a total of 10 Source Appliances.
