News Facts
--Enabling customers to simplify IT and better manage their storage
environments, Oracle today announced Oracle's Sun Storage Archive
Manager 5.3 and Sun QFS 5.3.
--With this release, Oracle is the first tape vendor to offer end-to-end
data integrity validation, enabling customers to simplify and shorten
the time consuming process of verifying their digital archives are
uncorrupted and accessible.
--When used with Oracle's StorageTek T10000C Tape Drives, a command from
SAM-QFS initiates data verification within the tape drive itself, with
no need to transfer the data back to the server.
--Oracle's Sun Storage Archive Manager streamlines data management
processes with policy-based storage tiering to help customers reduce
storage cost and complexity. In addition to support for Data Integrity
Verification in StorageTek T10000C Tape Drives, Oracle's SAM-QFS
environment provides new tiered storage support with:
--Improved Windows and Mac OS interoperability via native Oracle
Solaris 11 support for CIFS/SMB and NFSv4, which enhances
synchronization between these environments and SAM-QFS to improve
usability in heterogeneous data centers.
--Enhanced analytics with new Static Defined Tracing probes,
designed to provide insight into file-level operations to
significantly improve performance analysis for troubleshooting and
cut time to problem resolution.
--Expanded tape drive and software support for StorageTek T10000C
Tape Drives for Standard and Volsafe media, StorageTek LTO-5 with
WORM media support and IBM and HP LTO-5 tape drives, as well as
Oracle Solaris 11 and Oracle's StorageTek Automated Cartridge
System Library Software (ACSLS) 8.0.1 and 8.0.2.
--Sun Storage Archive Manager extends Oracle's leadership in providing
an integrated tiered storage solution for data protection and archive
with Oracle WebCenter Content, Oracle's Pillar Axiom storage system,
Oracle's Sun ZFS Storage Appliance, Oracle's StorageTek Tape, Oracle
Recovery Manager 11g, Oracle Secure Backup and as part of the Oracle
Optimized Solution for Lifecycle Content Management.
