Description
===========
SANworks Storage Resource Manager (SRM) is web-based software for Windows
NT, Windows 2000, Novell NetWare, Compaq Tru64 UNIX, Compaq OpenVMS, Sun
Solaris, HP-UX, IBM AIX, and Red Hat Linux environments. It provides IT
managers with storage data analysis to detect trends, foresee problems and
balance resources by providing automated reporting on storage capacity,
consumption, and availability for SAN, NAS, and DAS implementations.
SRM automatically scans the enterprise storage topology, collects capacity,
consumption, availability, and configuration statistics, correlates the data
in a Microsoft SQL Server database, and provides out-of-the-box alerts,
reports, historical trends, and policies that enable easy, efficient problem
detection and correction.
New functionality added to this release extends support for enterprise
storage capacity and consumption reporting to include StorageWorks
Enterprise NAS by Compaq and Network Appliance Filers. SRM includes hardware
configuration and topology information on RAID and SAN connectivity devices.
SRM reports enable IT managers to determine SAN migration needs and manage
storage resources within established storage infrastructures, maximizing
storage resource planning, consolidation, and optimization.
Features
========
Automated storage monitoring.
Threshold-based alerts and events issued via SNMP, e-mail, NT
event log, and Alerts page.
Consolidated, network-wide reports inventory all storage assets
and identify trouble spots.
Historical planning trends automatically created to eliminate
guesswork in capacity planning.
100% Web architecture for use anywhere on Intranet, WAN, or
dial-up.
Free space alerts, thresholds, and reports for every disk
partition and directory prevent server and application crashes caused by
insufficient free disk space.
Reports on files not backed up identify backup holes to prevent
data recovery failures.
File access trends identify unbalanced and overloaded file
servers.
Support for HP OpenView Storage virtual replicator enables easy
and accurate accounting of virtual disks and snapshots.
Incremental and full backup sizing reports keep backups inside
backup windows.
Wasted space and largest file reports identify storage that can
be reclaimed, deleted, or archived. Custom filters let you identify
specific file types.
Network-wide user and directory disk space quotas alert the
administrator (and the user) when users consume more disk space than
they really need.
Computer, user, and directory groups enable user or
project-based charge back on disk space, so departments and business
units pay for what they use.
Capacity planning trends show when, where, how much disk space
to add.
Directory and share point reports show where to add new users
and how to load balance existing file servers.
Customizable storage filters make SAN planning and server
consolidation easy.
