Comprehensive, Centralized Management Capability
The controller provides a wide range of management capabilities: Configuration Management,
Performance Management, Logical Unit Number (LUN) Management, Security Administration,
and Firmware Update Management.
Management Options via RS-232 and Ethernet (Telnet)
A RS-232 port and Ethernet port are included to provide local and remote management capabilities.
SNMP is also supported.
Data Security with Dual-Level Protection
Non-host based data security is maintained with scalable security features including restricted
management access, dual-level protection, and authentication against authorized listing (up to 256
direct host logins per host port are supported). No security software is required on the host
computers.
Storage Virtualization and Pooling
Storage pooling enables different types of storage to be aggregated into a single logical storage
resource from which virtual volumes can be served up to multi-vendor host computers. Up to 1024
LUNs are supported.
SES (SCSI Enclosure Services) Support for Enclosure Monitoring
Status information on the condition of enclosure, disk drives, power supplies, and cooling systems
are obtained via the SES interface.
Absolute Data Integrity and Availability
Automatic drive failure recovery procedures are transparent to users.
Hot-Swapable and Redundant Components
The controller utilizes redundant, hot-swappable power supplies and a hot swappable fan module
that contains redundant cooling fans.
