What Brocade
Doesn’t Want You to Know

Background
Corporations rely on their Storage Area Network (SAN) infrastructure to run their businesses. Therefore, SAN-related purchases must
be evaluated carefully and IT managers must have accurate information when making multi-million dollar purchasing decisions. Emulex
LightPulse® Fibre Channel Host Bus Adapters (HBAs), Fibre Channel over Ethernet (FCoE) Converged Network Adapters (CNAs) and
OneConnect™ Universal Converged Network Adapters (UCNAs) leverage 10 generations of enterprise-class, advanced, field-proven
technology, providing customers with the highest-quality SAN connectivity solutions that the world’s leading enterprises have come to
rely upon.
Brocade has been publishing information that can be misleading if you don’t have in-depth knowledge of networking technology—
knowledge typically possessed by expert technologists who live to design and develop connectivity products. This document is intended to
help distinguish the facts from the fiction, thus empowering you to make a well-informed purchasing decision when choosing a SAN Fibre
Channel HBA, CNA or UCNA product.

Emulex
Broad market acceptance—Over 7 million ports installed in a wide
range of data center environments.
Over a decade of experience in Fibre Channel, technology
innovator—Emulex is an industry leader, having pioneered
numerous technologies such as N_Port ID Virtualization (NPIV) and
Data Integrity Initiative, and is a leader in convergence with UCNAs.
Investment protection—Emulex HBAs are backward-compatible
across all generations of HBAs. The common driver model
leverages one driver across all generations of HBAs, CNAs and
UCNAs, so your investment in Emulex technology is secure.
Future-proofed UCNAs—Emulex UCNAs provide IT administrators
with the ability to add FCoE or iSCSI offload in the future if needed.
Highest reliability in the industry—10 million hours mean time
between failures (MTBF).*
Broad OS support for greater interoperability—Significant,
long-term investment in R&D has yielded a solid, market-proven
driver portfolio supporting a broad range of OS environments and
system platforms.
· VMware, Solaris, Windows, HPUX, NetWare and Linux
* Based on 2Gb/s and 4Gb/s HBA data.
Brocade
No published installation numbers—installed product over the
past three years in the industry is so low that it is not tracked by
industry analysts. Analysts such as BMO Capital Markets reported
in its 11-20-09 Flash that “Brocade’s HBA efforts have consistently
disappointed.” In addition, recent press reports regarding a potential
sale of Brocade Corporation should be considered. In the event this
does happen, will the acquiring company continue to fund a poorly
performing business unit?
Three years’ experience in Fibre Channel HBAs with the first year’s
product line consisting of another vendor’s re-packaged product
(LSI). This product has since been discontinued so the current
product line is about two years old. Brocade touts its experience in
the switch market, which has no bearing on HBA experience.
Spotty record thus far- 1st year customers were not supported
when Brocade transitioned from LSI product to their own product
and they were left with no upgrade path to Brocade product.
Brocade does not have the ability to start with basic 10GbE network
interface card (NIC) support and add FCoE or iSCSI offloads.
No published MTBF for its HBAs. Recent errata list is significant—
52 items.
Patchy support—limited hardware and software qualifications and
certifications present a significant interoperability obstacle for data
centers. Customers must check platform support carefully before
purchasing, as there are many gaps.

Emulex
Superior virtual machine (VM) support:
· Co-creator of NPIV with IBM
· Complete solution for VMware ESXi
· Ability to create more virtual ports (vPorts) than competitive HBAs.
For example, in lab trials run with VMware ESX 3.5 Update 2,
Emulex HBAs were able to achieve a maximum vPort count of 64.
Performance-proven in the real world—Emulex outperforms
Brocade in real-world conditions.
· Up to 33% better CPU efficiency
Superior management for the enterprise—Saves time and
improves management efficiency:
· IT administrators can manage multiple HBAs, UCNAs and CNAs
at one time for faster deployment and higher server availability
- Emulex OneCommand™ Manager, successor to HBAnyware,™
provides cross-platform remote management capabilitities on
Windows, Solaris, Linux and VMware environments
- Common driver model leverages one driver across all
generations of HBAs on a given OS platform
· Automatic installation with AutoPilot™ Installer- installs
Emulex Windows drivers and management applications with
seven mouse clicks
· Adapters can be managed with the server online
· HBAs allow no re-boot firmware upgrades across the network
without downtime
Market Position
1. Fiction—Brocade’s Fibre Channel HBAs are based on nearly
20 years of experience in data center and storage networking,
as well as holding the market share leader position in switches
with 66% share of the market in 2008.
Fact—Although Brocade has 20 years of experience in data center
and storage networking, they have about three years of experience
in the Fibre Channel HBA market. Additionally, any experience that
they might have in the switch market has no impact on their Fibre
Channel HBA business. When Brocade first entered the HBA market,
they were reselling LSI Logic technology. After one year of reselling
LSI, they introduced their own technology and abandoned the LSI
product line. In effect, those early customers were abandoned too,
as there was no upgrade path for their products. This is contrary
to Emulex core values, where all drivers are backward-compatible,
ensuring that customers have lifetime product compatibility.
Brocade has not been successful in the HBA market and units
shipped over the past three years have been so insignificant in
number that they are not tracked by industry analysts. This is of a
concern to customers who need to know that their HBA vendor
will be there for them in the future.
Emulex
Brocade
· Brocade drivers are not in-box; deployment is time-consuming
and expensive
· Brocade HBAs are limited to 20 vPorts.
Brocade claims huge performance numbers that were derived in lab
settings. These lab conditions hardly (if ever), exists in the real world
under typical environments.
· Can only manage one Brocade HBA at a time
· No automated installation
· Server must be taken off-line and an off-line utility (different to
HCM) must be used to managed adapters in VMWare ESXi
environments
Clearly the “safer” choice for customers is an established Fibre
Channel HBA vendor. Customers seeking confidence in their
SANs should choose an established HBA supplier with proven
market acceptance.
Emulex has over a decade of experience in Fibre Channel HBAs.
The Emulex LightPulse 8Gb/s Fibre Channel HBAs are built on
generations of advanced technology. Emulex is recognized for
technology leadership, interoperability, reliability, supportability
and manageability. Additionally, Emulex HBAs feature 10 million
hours of field-proven MTBF, the most reliable in the industry. In a
survey by IT BrandPulse, Emulex 8Gb/s HBAs were ranked first in
terms of reliability, service and support.
Manageability
2. Fiction—Brocade offers flexible management.
Fact—Brocade’s HCM management utility is not scalable.
Brocade adapters must be managed one at a time, whereas with
Emulex OneCommand Manager, IT administrators can manage
multiple adapters, improving management efficiency, time to
deployment, and server availability.
 Fact Vs. Fiction
Emulex also improves server availability by enabling online
management of HBAs in VMware ESXi environments. With
Brocade, IT administrators will need to take servers offline, which
impacts business application availability.
Brocade also continues to tout its end-to-end management
capabilities, but upon closer examination, it becomes clear that
this capability requires the integration of HCM into Brocade’s
DCFM management application, which can cost upwards of
$25,000. Therefore, Brocade’s end-to-end management capability
is an expensive proposition if DCFM is not already in use.
3. Fiction—Brocade’s Fibre Channel HBAs improve customer
data center end-to-end performance, simplify management,
and reduce total cost of ownership (TCO).
Fact—Typically, end-to-end strategies are deployed by leading
storage vendors such as EMC, HP, IBM and Sun. Emulex was
the first HBA vendor to facilitate end-to-end integration by
offering a Storage Management Initiative Specification (SMI-S)
provider, allowing Emulex HBAs to be managed by third-party-
developed tools. Currently, Brocade does not offer an SMI-S
provider for their HBAs. The Emulex SMI-S provider was used
with HP Insight Manager to verify proper configuration of the
server and storage device.
Emulex has integrated Emulex HBA installation and deployment
tools with IBM Remote Deployment Manager (RDM) and HP
Rapid Deployment Package (RDP). Additionally, Emulex drove the
simplification of deployment and management of Emulex HBAs
and Brocade switches.
Emulex approach: Standards-based design—Enterprise SANs
feature many components, including servers, storage, switches,
and software. The SAN market was built on open standards.
Customers deploy heterogeneous networks and expect to be able
to add in new components without interoperability concerns.
Emulex believes in end-to-end, but our strategy has been to work
through standards and with key industry partners to develop end-
to-end functionality that can be easily deployed and leveraged
across the SAN. Examples include our activities in security with
Support for FC-SP and the Key Management Interoperability
Standard (KMIP), data integrity with support for T10 DIF and
virtualization with support for NPIV.
Emulex
Many of the future capabilities that Brocade mentions are available
from Emulex today. For example FC-SP authentication between
the HBA and switch is now exclusively available from Emulex.
Another example is NPIV, for which Emulex developed, drove the
standardization effort and then worked with VMware, Microsoft
Corporation and Xen to innovate software support.
Brocade HCM—Host Connectivity Manager (HCM) must be
integrated into Brocade’s Data Center Fabric Manager (DCFM)
application for end-to-end management. Emulex OneCommand
Manager can also be integrated into Brocade’s DCFM, providing
similar end-to-end management capabilities. Furthermore, with
Brocade’s HCM, IT administrators can only manage one server
at a time, whereas with Emulex OneCommand Manager IT
administrators can manage multiple adapters at one time (i.e.,
update adapter parameters).
Universal boot / boot-from-SAN—Unlike Emulex, Brocade does
not offer “Universal Boot” support, forcing the IT administrator to
initially identify the specific type of server hardware platform prior
to installing a boot code.
Furthermore, Brocade’s boot-from-SAN methodology is also
problematic. Brocade adapters will select the first Logical Unit
Number (LUN) they find to boot the server from, whereas with
Emulex, the adapter uses the LUN it has been configured to use
as the boot LUN. Emulex methodology guarantees access to the
correct boot device within a dynamic SAN environment, ensuring
no disruption to server availability.
These are just a few examples of how Brocade’s Fibre Channel
HBA solution lacks the functionality required to address the needs
of today’s enterprise SANs.
 Fact Vs. Fiction
Interoperability
4. Fiction—Brocade’s Fibre Channel HBAs offer broad server
and operating system support, including driver support for
Windows, Linux, Solaris and VMware.
Fact—Brocade’s operating system support is limited in platform
support and capability.
Emulex solutions have a proven track record with SAN hardware
OEMs and software vendors. Emulex HBAs have been qualified
and certified on a broad range of server, storage and software
solutions, ensuring seamless integration between existing and
new data center deployments. In sharp contrast, Brocade
HBAs have limited hardware and software qualifications and
certifications, which presents a significant interoperability
obstacle for data centers.
Brocade’s interoperability shortcomings include:
n No Oracle VM or Oracle Enterprise Linux support
n No solutions for blade server platforms;
e.g., no mezzanine card for HP c-Class blades
n No Solaris 8 or 9 support
n Do not support the full array of Sun maintainability tools—Fault
Management Architecture (FMA) and debug tools (Dtrace)
n HP qualification limited to specific models within the Proliant G5
server product line (no Intel Xeon 5500-Nehalem servers)
n No products for PCI, PCI-X 1.0, PCI-X 2.0 bus types
n No UEFI support, outdated user functionality and restricted
boot-from-SAN capability
n No mention of Citrix, Xen Server, and Microsoft Hyper-V in its list
of supported OS/Hypervisor environments
The fact remains that data center environments include a
set of heterogeneous hardware and software platforms, and
interoperability is paramount to ensure efficient management and
SAN availability.

Figure 1 Emulex HBAs are fully supported throughout the SAN.
5. Fiction—Brocade 400- and 800-series Fibre Channel HBAs
have been tested with servers and storage platforms from
every major OEM, including EMC.
Fact—Interoperability is clearly a requirement for SAN deployment
of an HBA. Customers choosing to use Brocade’s HBAs in servers
are likely to run into “unsupported configuration” issues, as the
Brocade’s HBAs are not approved by their service providers. For
example, the number of HP-supported configurations for Emulex
is 109, while Brocade has only 42 supported configurations.
Another concern is the limited product line. IT departments like to
use compatible components, to simplify deployment, management
and support. Since the Brocade product line only has four PCIe
adapters, there is a wide range of servers for which Brocade has no
offering including blade servers. For example, Brocade has no blade
mezzanine adapters for HP c-Class Server Blades and IBM’s Blade
systems. Nor does Brocade offer a PCI-X or PCI ExpressModule™
form factor HBA.
The Emulex robust product family is qualified, sold, and supported
by all leading server and storage array vendors. Additionally,
Emulex HBAs are on the support lists of all major storage software
vendors, and Emulex drivers are in-box or in-distribution from the
major operating system companies. Customers standardizing
on Emulex are confident that they will have an Emulex-branded
Fibre Channel solution for all components on their SAN. Similarly,
customers know that their Emulex-connected SANs will be fully
supported by all vendors.

the CIM provider.

The Emulex approach: Emulex offers a CIM provider, as well CIM Provider CIM Provider

The Brocade approach: Brocade only offers a CIM provider

management interface; therefore, Brocade’s solution is
“incomplete” from a management perspective.

Why should the customer care? At first glance, the absence of a

client management interface may sound insignificant, but it is not!
With Emulex, data center administrators can manage their HBAs
while the server is online, using the Emulex OneCommand
Manager application. Conversely, with Brocade, the server must
be taken offline and an offline utility (different than Brocade’s HCM) Therefore, by configuring a server with Brocade Fibre Channel

 Fact Vs. Fiction
Performance
7. Fiction—Brocade claims to have the leading performance
with a reported 500,000 IOPS, support for more VMs and
maximum per-port IOPS.
Fact—Emulex delivers superior performance in transactional
environments. Emulex conducted a series of benchmark tests
to compare the performance of Emulex and Brocade 8Gb/s
HBAs using mixed loads of small and large block sizes. The tests
were designed to simulate real-world applications like Microsoft
Exchange and SQL Server. Under these real-world conditions,
Emulex HBAs achieved the following performance results:
n 67% higher IOPS than the Brocade 815—This is due in part to the
Frame Level Multiplexing capability of Emulex HBAs, which allows
large I/O frames to be processed as multiple smaller blocks that
are interspersed with smaller I/O frames (Windows environment).
n 70% faster I/O response time in transactional environments—
Response time was measured as the time required to complete
a 4Kb or 8Kb read and write with simultaneous 64Kb write
activity in a Windows environment. This is a critical factor for
applications like Exchange or SQL Server, where interactive
users are waiting for I/O activity to complete.
n 35% better CPU effectiveness in virtual server environments—
This value is particularly critical with server virtualization where
higher CPU effectiveness enables higher virtualization ratios and
greater cost savings (VMware vSphere environment).
So why are the performance numbers that Brocade published
not realized in these tests?
Brocade’s numbers are based on a measurement tool called
IOMeter. Based on that performance, they claimed performance
leadership in just about any application. While IOMeter is a
valid tool, IOPS performance is not a representative measure of
performance in virtual server and transactional environments.
Here is why Brocade’s methodology is flawed:
1. You cannot rely on IOMeter benchmark data to support
performance numbers in virtual server environments. To properly
support such a claim, you must assess HBA performance in an
environment where virtual servers are actually present!
2. The proper benchmark tools must be used to give a meaningful
picture of performance. For example, a tool called JetStress is the
preferred tool for testing Exchange environments and should be
used to validate performance claims in transactional environments.
An HBA’s “latency performance” is what counts in transactional
environments. The JetStress benchmarking tool was specifically
designed to simulate Microsoft Exchange workload environments,
Emulex
providing a more meaningful assessment of an HBA’s
performance. By failing to use JetStress or similar benchmark
tools to support performance claims within online transaction
processing (OLTP) environments such as Exchange or DB2
means you are not getting a true performance number. In these
types of highly transactional database environments, database
administrators continuously seek to improve I/O response time,
as it directly affects user response times. Therefore, I/O response
time (latency) is the critical performance metric for databases, not
IOPS. Latency is a measure of time needed for a transaction to
be completed by the HBA; therefore, the lower the latency, the
greater the performance. This is why using HBAs with low latency
is key to improving transactional performance. See below for more
information on latency.
3. CPU efficiency must be taken into consideration when
measuring performance, as it has a direct effect on return on
investment (ROI). CPU efficiency is the HBA’s ability to offload
I/O-related processes from the host CPU; it improves the CPU’s
overall efficiency by enabling more cycles to support greater
application workloads. This can significantly improve ROI by
enabling IT administrators to support increasing application
workloads without additional hardware investments.
In order for performance claims to be valid, proper benchmarking
tools and test environments should be used. Showing results
from a benchmarking tool not intended to assess performance
in the transactional or virtualized environments does not provide
meaningful performance numbers. In addition, some reported
numbers are valid only under very specific environments, which
rarely, if ever, can be found in a production SAN environment.
The Emulex Labs tests depicted above have yielded results that
disprove our competitor’s performance claims.
Understanding response time
The following analogy, using a bus terminal, helps explain why
response time is critical within transactional environments.
The bus terminals represent the HBAs and the passengers
represent data to be transported.
You have two bus stations—bus stations B and E. Passengers
continuously stream in and out of these bus stations. Bus station
E manages to load passengers on and off more quickly and
efficiently (lower latency); therefore, more buses leave the station,
more passengers get processed and there is no passenger
congestion. Bus station B, even though it has faster buses, cannot
efficiently move the passengers on and off the buses; therefore,
fewer numbers of buses arrive or leave the station and fewer
numbers of passengers are processed. Bus station B’s inability to
process the passengers (high latency) not only slows down travel
time, but also causes a backlog of passengers.
 Fact Vs. Fiction Emulex

8. Fiction—Brocade is claiming it
has more than twice the IOPS per
watt.
Fact—HBAs account for just over
1% of server power. This percentage
was derived from testing on Intel dual
processor, quad-core servers with
Emulex dual-channel HBAs. CPU
effectiveness/efficiency is a more
meaningful measurement of power
savings than quoting IOPS per watt.
By measuring CPU efficiency, you can
assess an HBA’s ability to offload I/O
related processes from the server CPU,
making more CPU cycles available for
application workload processing.
Emulex Lab testing shows that Emulex
delivers superior CPU effectiveness
with 35% greater CPU effectiveness
than Brocade. This means that you will
realize substantial power/cost savings
at the server level with Emulex by:
n Utilizing lower performance servers
n Delaying server purchases and running
more applications on existing servers When it comes to offering confidence for your enterprise data,
there is no better choice than Emulex.
