Key Features

Online storage management with heterogeneous operating system (Solaris, Linux, HP-UX and AIX) support and broad set of qualified storage devices and arrays.
Dynamic multi-pathing enables I/O to be efficiently spread across multiple paths for path failure protection and fast failover.
Storage Foundation Manager allows centralized management of diverse applications, servers and storage.
Thin provisioning enables storage capacity to be over allocated to applications and physical capacity to be consumed only as applications actually write data.

Key Benefits

Increase storage utilization across heterogeneous operating systems and storage arrays.
Enhance storage I/O path availability and performance and efficiently spread I/O across multiple paths.
Increase operational efficiency with comprehensive visibility and centralized management of applications, servers and storage across multiple hosts.
Simplify both management and provisioning of storage, while increasing storage utilization, lowering costs and improving operational efficiencies.
