SAN Headquarters (SAN HQ) uses Simple Network Management Protocol (SNMP) to collect performance, alarm and health status data from dozens of EqualLogic storage array groups around the world.
EqualLogic Thin Clone technology is designed to enable storage admins to easily provision environments for developers. Environments that use Microsoft SQL Server and VMware vSphere can leverage Auto-Snapshot Manager to further help reduce complexity.
EqualLogic Array Software automatically virtualizes and optimizes resources within the storage area network (SAN) to deliver consistent application performance. It also features the tools required for developing a sound data protection strategy.
