Through a series of software management tools called Host PowerTools, INFINIDAT provides both storage and application administrators with a new, advanced generation of storage management capabilities.
Through a series of software management tools called Host PowerTools, INFINIDAT provides both storage and application administrators with a new, advanced generation of storage management capabilities.
Host PowerTools are used to ensure configuration readiness and self-healing, to enable self-service of routine storage operations, and much more, while enabling different IT teams to work together more easily.
Automating the host configuration process, according to best practices, reduces the risk of downtime, reduces manual labor, and shortens configuration time.
To prevent a situation where a host gains access to the wrong data, security requirements dictate that the host/application identify itself to the storage. Host PowerTools enable the administrator to perform the security authentication only once.
Host PowerTools fully automate this entire LUN provisioning process, on both the storage and host sides, using a single, user-friendly GUI and CLI.
Increase an existing LUN size or provision a new LUN through Host PowerTools. Both tasks are available through the GUI and the CLI, and take just a few seconds to complete.
Host PowerTools provide a clear, real-time configuration status of all available LUNs on each system. Host PowerTools further enable administrators to test the performance of a specific LUN, to ensure it is performing well.
Host PowerTools offer an identical GUI and CLI across multiple operating systems, while still preserving the unique capabilities of each OS (such as file system types). This unique feature simplifies the administrator’s work and boosts productivity.
