Integrated Storage Array Configuration |
|
The administration server is used to install and configure all FDA and Optima disk subsystems connected to it. The server also allows users to structure storage, define LUNs, structure pools (standard and dynamic), define IP addresses and SNMP traps, and isolate data zones (LUN masking: Access Control function). |
Real-time Activity Display |
|
Users have access to all events relating to storage or data. The configuration and structuring of data and physical and logical disk capacities are clearly indicated. Events that require the administrator’s attention, including errors, incidents and exceeding the log size-threshold, are displayed for handling. The administration station allows the user to organize and view the performance of connected FDA and Optimas by way of the Performance Monitor and Performance Navigator options. Products from the Bull StoreWay Storage Resource Management line can complete this information.
|
Integration with System Management Software |
|
Event handling is supported by specifying information relationships (SNMP traps and notifications) using high-performance system management software, such as Bull System Manager, and escalating events and errors to system logs. Alerts can be escalated to the Bull support team and events registered immediately. A 24x7 monitoring service is also available to provide round-the-clock support from Bull. |
Data Replication Software Administration |
|
The data replication infrastructure, supported by optional applications “FDA and Optima Dynamic Snap Volume”, “FDA and Optima Local Data Replication”, “Remote Data Replication” and “Consistency Option” and software enabling the synchronization and integration of replication tools with applications on the production servers, is managed by StoreWay FDA and Optima Storage Manager. This enables the users to manage licenses and centrally administer deployment of the replication solution. |
