  2. Hands Free Capacity Provisioning Servers ‘think’ they have all the storage they want… • Very large virtual disk assigned to each server • Small fraction of real capacity allocated to each virtual disk • SANmelody automatically allocates additional space when used …but they only get what they need.

  3. Traditional Disk Provisioning Determine which Application is running out of space Determine how to add storage (extend Volume/LUN, add LUN, etc.) Determine how much storage to add. Determine where to get storage. Allocate storage from Pool. Set protection (LUN masks) for Applications to see correct storage. Set switch zoning and HBA settings if applicable. Add storage to App. LUN or create new App. LUN Note: Typically requires reboots and downtime Perform Volume formatting, Volume Management, Configure OS and Apps. to be able to use the larger LUN or new LUN Replenish Pool (add disks) DataCore Automates the Process Reduce the Work and Eliminates time consuming Steps! Automatic Virtual Capacity Free up your Administrators for more productive tasks “Do it once” –versus- 10 Step Process with Downtime Auto Provisioning Saves Time and Effort
