Automated, Integrated and Scalable Protection for Virtual Machines

Benefits of Deploying Auto-Snapshot Manager/VMware Edition:

  • High performance, space-efficient hypervisor-aware SAN-based snapshot, clones and replication
  • Automated, consolidated virtual machine backup and recovery
  • Scalable HW-based solution for online data protection of virtual infrastructure
  • Reduced snapshot space overhead and enhanced virtual server performance
  • Fast recovery of individual virtual machines and entire VMFS DataStores
  • Easy to navigate GUI with both SAN and VMware-centric views
  • Policies logically assigned to virtual machine hierarchies for consistent data protection across the virtual infrastructure

Enhancing the Speed, Quality, and Scalability of Data Protection for VMware environments:

Organizations who are deploying more flexible and cost efficient infrastructures using integrated virtual storage and server solutions from Dell and VMware can now automate local protection of their VMs using Auto-Snapshot Manager/VMware Edition.

Auto-Snapshot Manager/VMware Edition (ASM/VE) enables fast online protection of the virtual machine environment. ASM/VE helps ensure fast and reliable recovery by automating local SAN-based protection through integration with VMware infrastructure 3 and VMware vSphere 4.0. ASM/VE utilizes VMware’s vStorage APIs and Dell EqualLogic’s SAN-based data protection features resulting in optimal infrastructure performance and protection. When used with the comprehensive suite of integrated VMware data protection and disaster recovery features, EqualLogic PS Series users can secure and recover their virtual data center at the application, virtual server, and data center layers with confidence.

Simplified Virtual Data Protection Management for Enhanced Performance and Protection

Hypervisor-Aware-Protection with Auto-Snapshot Manager/VMware Edition:

Auto-Snapshot Manger/VMware Edition creates space efficient copies of virtual machines for business continuance planning and recovery. ASM/VE leverages the VMware snapshotting technology to place virtual machines in the native snapshot mode, creates a SAN based snapshot or replica of the VM and then returns the environment to its normal state. Integrated directly with standard VMware and EqualLogic application programming interfaces (APIs), Auto-Snapshot Manager/VMware Edition understands the relationships and location of virtual machines, VMFS Datastores, and PS Series SAN-based volumes. With intuitive SAN and VMware-centric navigation and a built-in scheduler, the VMware administrator can create data protection schedules for individual virtual machines, groups of virtual machines, or even all virtual machines in a VMware datacenter, coordinating snapshot or replica creation across all SAN-based volumes upon which the virtual machines reside. Utilizing the SAN based data protection features while VMs are in snapshot mode provides hypervisor-aware protection for faster restores and scalable protection required in virtualized server deployments.
