StoreAge SVM
StoreAge SVM (Storage Virtualization Manager) is a SAN appliance that provides virtual volume management in heterogeneous environments. The LSI 8400 Data Path Module uses integrated host-based agent functionality to avoid the complexity of managing distributed standard agents. The StoreAge SVM features storage capacity and storage performance pooling across the entire SAN storage domain. Uniquely designed to virtualize storage off the data path, the StoreAge SVM does not impose any performance penalty and delivers a highly scalable and highly available SAN infrastructure at levels not found with alternative approaches.
The StoreAge SVM provides centralized management for distributed enterprise storage, significantly reducing the Total Cost of Ownership. It is an ideal platform for SAN-aware Storage Applications such as Remote Mirroring, Snapshot and others and a key enabler for business continuity strategies.

Data Protection and Disaster Recovery PlanningMay.01.07 (PDF 335 KB) Data Recovery is somewhat similar to life insurance – you invest your money today, to overcome a possible disaster in the future. Just like insurance, Disaster Recovery Planning is a complex and constantly changing subject. There are many options, and there are many highly-paid consultants who often have different interests than their clients. Therefore, it is no surprise that this complexity generates myths – many of which are erroneous. This white paper answers some of the most frequently asked questions in this area of technology. Enhanced Backup Using multiView and Asynchronous multiMirrorMay.01.07 (PDF 410 KB) Data protection requirements have changed dramatically as corporations have become more dependent on IT applications to run their businesses.
