MANAGEMENT TOOL FEATURES INTUITIVE GUI THAT UNIFIES SAN/NAS.JMR JMR Journal of Magnetic Resonance JMR Journal of Marine Research JMR Jason Microwave Radiometer JMR Joint Movement Request (US Army transportation) JMR Junk E-Mail Reporting (Microsoft program) Electronics, Chatsworth, Calif., a manufacturer of data storage solutions offering the industry's widest selection of Fibre Channel, SCSI SCSI in full Small Computer System Interface Once common standard for connecting peripheral devices (disks, modems, printers, etc.) to small and medium-sized computers. SCSI has given way to faster standards, such as Firewire and USB. and SATA (Serial ATA) A serial version of the ATA (IDE) interface, which has been the de facto standard hard disk interface for desktop PCs for more than two decades. The original Parallel ATA (PATA) interface was launched in 1986. storage systems, has introduced its new Fortra(R) DataMover, a management tool featuring an intuitive GUI (Graphical User Interface) A graphics-based user interface that incorporates movable windows, icons and a mouse. The ability to resize application windows and change style and size of fonts are the significant advantages of a GUI vs. a character-based interface. that unifies SAN and NAS (1) See network access server. (2) (Network Attached Storage) A specialized file server that connects to the network. A NAS device contains a slimmed-down operating system and a file system and processes only I/O requests by supporting the popular while providing rich functionality that includes thin provisioning, instantaneous snapshots of blocks and files, block and file replication, advanced SNMP (Simple Network Management Protocol) A widely used network monitoring and control protocol. Data are passed from SNMP agents, which are hardware and/or software processes reporting activity in each network device (hub, router, bridge, etc. notification and scheduling to the minute. Coupled with JMR's successful Fortra storage line, the DataMover brings performance, management and scalability at an affordable price to IT professionals. The new DataMover can be deployed as either primary or secondary storage for powerful data protection and nearly instant recovery from Exchange, SQL Server and other data disasters. Administrators also recover from file disasters such as accidental file deletion and w virus corruption within seconds or minutes instead of hours or days. "DataMover is our direct response to requests from partners and customers for an enterprise class interface that provides superior navigation and sophisticated features like Snapshot and Replication only found in a product like DataMover," stated Tom Fabrizio, vice president of Sales at JMR Electronics. "JMR Electronics has given our enterprise customers the required streamlined access to their unified file and block data stores. DataMover's interface is a simplistic sim·plism n. The tendency to oversimplify an issue or a problem by ignoring complexities or complications. [French simplisme, from simple, simple, from Old French; see simple , graphical tool providing robust and logical access to both NAS and SAN data. DataMover's unique thin provisioning features, smart disk technology and replication are all managed from a easy integrated interface," said Tom Fabrizio, and provides our VAR Channel with the right tools for both the ILM and disaster recovery requirements for their customers. DataMover features include the following: * Snap -- Instantaneous, lightweight and unlimited snapshots or point-in-time copies to recover from user, application, and administrator errors. Snap also features the ability to exclude non-critical data from snapshots. * Support for ATA (1) (AT Attachment) The specification for IDE drives. See IDE. (2) See analog telephone adapter. ATA - Advanced Technology Attachment , SATA, SCSI, and Fiber Channel disk arrays. * Support for Windows, UNIX UNIX Operating system for digital computers, developed by Ken Thompson of Bell Laboratories in 1969. It was initially designed for a single user (the name was a pun on the earlier operating system Multics). , and Mac OSX clients. * Integration with Active Directory and NT4 domains. * Integration with NIS. * Support for Advanced Security including ACLs. * SNMP Monitoring. * Advanced Volume Manager with the ability to configure multiple different RAID volumes. * Intuitive, full-featured web interface. * SSH Interface for command line access. * Ditto -- Ability to create replicated copies of data for offsite data protection. * High availability features such as Ethernet Failover.
