EzSAN XR Feature

Initiator Support

XR Series supports a variety of client initiators running on many popular OS platforms. Software initiators are available for Microsoft Windows, Linux, Novel Netware, Sun Solaris, IBM AIX, HP UX, and Mac OS X from the respective OS vendors.

Lower TCO with Appliance Form Factor

EzSAN brings down the total cost of ownership of storage assets by providing simple to setup, configure and manage appliances. These appliances integrate all the latest technologies such as RAID, SATA, Gigabit Ethernet, high performance processors, as well as iSCSI, IP and storage management software in one package to deliver a unique value to IT organizations that need tons of storage at reasonable prices.

Powerful Graphical User Interface

Accessed through the web and secured with password protection, the graphical user interface is simple, yet powerful. It allows for complete configuration and management of the appliance including setting up the network interfaces, creating user credentials and access lists, LUN creation and assignments, as well as the management of the RAID controller(s).

Multiple RAID Arrays

Our XR Series allows for the creation of multiple RAID arrays within each system to suit application requirements. Allocate portions of the storage capacity to create RAID 10 for a complete redundant and high performance environment and assign RAID 5 to the rest of the storage to maximize performance while balancing storage utilization and redundancy.

Security Features

Client access is secured through Challenge Response Handshake Protocol (CHAP) and admin access is password protected. The LUN Masking feature presents Logical Volumes only to those servers that have been granted access and prevents others from seeing the volume. 'Credentials' allow grouping of servers/initiators that have the same privileges. The combination of Credentials and incoming network interface and/or TCP port allows for a secure and unique view of the storage where awareness of volume remains limited to the Credential group members.

Cluster Support

Intended for applications such as databases that can run in cluster configuration, our Cluster Support feature allows the sharing of volumes.

Network Fault Tolerance

This assures greater reliability by providing a secondary network interface, which automatically takes over if the primary network interface fails.
