Hitachi Storage Navigator
Hitachi Storage Navigator
Messages
Obtains system configuration and status information and sends user-
requested commands to the storage systems. Serves as the
integrated user interface for all Resource Manager components.
MK-96RD621
MK-96RD613
NEW: Hitachi Dynamic
Provisioning
Provides “virtual storage capacity” to simplify administration and
addition of storage, eliminate application service interruptions, and
reduce costs. See
Hitachi Dynamic Provisioning.
MK-96RD641
Hitachi TrueCopy
Hitachi TrueCopy for
IBM z/OS
Enables the user to perform remote copy operations between storage
systems in different locations. TrueCopy provides synchronous and
asynchronous copy modes for open-system and mainframe data.
MK-96RD622
MK-96RD623
Hitachi ShadowImage
Hitachi ShadowImage for
IBM z/OS
Allows the user to create internal copies of volumes for purposes such
as application testing and offline backup. Can be used in conjunction
with TrueCopy to maintain multiple copies of data at primary and
secondary sites.
MK-96RD618
MK-96RD619
Hitachi Compatible Mirroring
for IBM FlashCopy
Provides compatibility with the IBM FlashCopy mainframe host
software function, which performs server-based data replication for
mainframe data.
MK-96RD614
Hitachi Universal Replicator
Hitachi Universal Replicator
for IBM z/OS
Provides a RAID storage-based hardware solution for disaster
recovery which enables fast and accurate system recovery,
particularly for large amounts of data which span multiple volumes.
Using UR, you can configure and manage highly reliable data
replication systems using journal volumes to reduce chances of
suspension of copy operations.
MK-96RD624
MK-96RD625
Hitachi Compatible
Replication for IBM XRC*
Provides compatibility with the IBM Extended Remote Copy (XRC)
mainframe host software function, which performs server-based
asynchronous remote copy operations for mainframe LVIs.
MK-96RD610
Hitachi Copy-on-Write
Snapshot
Provides ShadowImage functionality using less capacity of the storage
system and less time for processing than ShadowImage by using
“virtual” secondary volumes. COW Snapshot is useful for copying and
managing data in a short time with reduced cost. ShadowImage
provides higher data integrity.
MK-96RD607
Hitachi Universal Volume
Manager
Realizes the virtualization of the storage system. Users can connect
other storage systems to the USP V/VM and access the data on the
external storage system over virtual devices on the USP V/VM.
Functions such as TrueCopy and Cache Residency can be performed
on the external data.
MK-96RD626
Hitachi Virtual Partition
Manager
Provides storage logical partition and cache logical partition:
Storage logical partition allows you to divide the available storage
among various users to reduce conflicts over usage.
Cache logical partition allows you to divide the cache into multiple
virtual cache memories to reduce I/O contention.
MK-96RD629
Hitachi LUN Manager
Enables users to configure the fibre-channel ports and devices (LUs)
for operational environments (for example, arbitrated-loop and fabric
topologies, host failover support).
MK-96RD615
Hitachi SNMP Agent
Provides support for SNMP monitoring and management. Includes
Hitachi specific MIBs and enables SNMP-based reporting on status and
alerts. SNMP agent on the SVP gathers usage and error information
and transfers the information to the SNMP manager on the host.
MK-96RD620
Audit Log
Provides detailed records of all operations performed using Storage
Navigator (and the SVP).
