VSTOR S316FN FC + + iSCSI NAS Data Storage Server

FN Series product is a baseline version of the VSTOR product line. It is equipped with High-Performance RAID hardware and advanced virtualization options such as remote replication and mirroring. Coupled with the ability to serve data over multiple trunked Gigabit Ethernet ports it offers an unmatched price to performance ratio and simplicity of use. Business Continuity and Disaster Recovery VSTOR provides Remote Mirror and Replication features out of the box. With the VSTOR Remote Mirror / Remote Replication features, data block is continuously replicated from VSTOR, to secondary storage, across any distance, without disrupting enterprise operations or causing downtime. To reduce network usage and storage utilizations, VSTOR sends only changed data blocks to your disaster recovery storage. Multi-Protocol Storage Gateway The VSTOR is a network-based solution designed to provide heterogeneous access to iSCSI, InfiniBand, Fibre Channel data sources. The gateway can help you make the most of the virtualization capability across your existing storage infrastructure to support an expanded set of business applications. With VSTOR gateway, organization can easily convert iSCSI, InfiniBand, Fibre Channel data sources into NAS, iSCSI, InfiniBand or Fibre Channel. Storage Virtualization VSTOR Advanced Storage Virtualization technology allows you to take full advantage of the system capacity by treating the entire RAID system as a contiguous pool of storage. This storage pool can then be apportioned into several virtual disks without needing to rebuild RAID sets. A system administrator can then easily create, delete, mirror coy and modify volumes at a high level of granularity without worrying about the configuration of the physical drives. Severs can be assigned precisely the right amount of storage required ¨C ensuring the most optimum utilization of your storage resources. Multi-Path I/O In order to reduce the downtime caused by bad cables, broken switches, adapters and controllers, VSTOR supports redundant physical path connections to hosts. In the event that one or more of these components fails, causing the path to fail, multi-path logic uses an alternate path for I/O so that applications can still access their data in VSTOR.
