Setup, Replication & Recovery Wizards
Data Storage Systems, Inc. (DSS, Inc.) is a Systems Integrator for American
Megatrends (AMI) providing our customers with un-parralled support and services.
DSS, Inc. provides design, implentation/integration, on-site intallation and after
market support services.
Designed for enterprise-level high availability and disaster recovery, AMI
StorTrends® iTX 2.7 is cost-effective, scalable, and suitable for both novice and
advanced users. AMI StorTrends® iTX 2.7 allows users to leverage the
advantages of the storage centralization and scalability of IP-based Storage Area
Networks, and the ease of use and file sharing of Network Attached Storage, on a
single platform at an attractive price.
AMI Synchronous replication enables data to be stored on multiple StorTrends®
storage appliances at multiple sites, for high availability and disaster recovery
capability. Asynchronous replication bundles I/Os and sends them to the remote
server after a small time lag, boosting network utilization efficiency and reducing
bandwidth cost. Snap-assisted replication replicates delta snapshots from the
primary system in chronological order to the secondary, so that in the event of a
failover, the system will automatically recover to the latest available, consistent
snapshot image.
AMI thin provisioning enables the administrator to create and manage storage volumes without restrictions. The provisioned volume
size can be significantly larger than current physical storage capacity, so users can purchase additional StorTrends storage
appliances as their needs grow.
High Availability grouping allows two StorTrends SAN heads to be grouped as highly available cluster nodes for Microsoft®
initiators, for extreme fault tolerance and always-up availability. This technology provides protection against disk, path, and node
failures with automatic, seamless failover.
AMIStorTrends iTX 2.7 software also features an advanced snapshot capability utilizing Redirect-on-Write (ROW) technology.
Administrators have the ability to schedule SAN and NAS snapshots, and to create and rollback to any snapshot in under a second.
AMI StorTrends iTX 2.7 supports SAN snapshots using Microsoft® VSS snapshot technology, or through agents specific for
application servers like Microsoft® Exchange Server and Oracle®. SQL Server is also supported through VSS, and VSS-based
snapshots support agent-less LAN-free backup. StorTrends iTX 2.7 also employs consistency groups to ensure application-aware
snapshots.
Advanced caching improves read and write-back performance and efficient I/O scheduling, while I/O aggregation significantly
improves snapshot performance.
Finally, integrated web-based management with AMI's ManageTrends® storage management interface provides a simple
configuration wizard to manage volumes, snapshots, logical disks, quotas and alerts, and the power to control the discovery and
management of multiple StorTrends appliances.e businesses (SMB).
