Hitachi Universal Replicator
software This feature provides a RAID storage-based hardware solution for
disaster recovery which enables fast and accurate system recovery,
particularly for large amounts of data which span multiple volumes.
Using Universal Replicator, you can configure and manage highly reliable
data replication systems using journal volumes to reduce chances of
suspension of copy operations.
Feature Description
Feature Description
Encryption License Key This feature implements encryption for open-systems data using the
encrypting back-end I/O module. It includes enhanced key support up
to 32 separate encryption keys allows encryption to be used as access
control for multi-tenant environments. It also provides enhanced data
security for the AES-XTS mode of operations.
External Authentication and
Authorization Storage management users of Unified Storage VM systems can be
authenticated and authorized for storage management operations using
existing customer infrastructure such as Microsoft Active Directory,
LDAP, and RADIUS-based systems.
Role Based Access Control
(RBAC) Provides greater granularity and access control for Unified Storage VM
storage administration. This new RBAC model separates storage,
security, and maintenance functions within the array. Storage
management users can receive their “role” assignments based on their
group memberships in external authorization sources such as Microsoft
Active Directory and LDAP. This RBAC model will also align with the
RBAC implementation in HCS 7.
Resource Groups Resource Groups allow for additional granularity and flexibility of the
management of storage resources.
Feature Description
Audit Log Function The Audit Log function monitors all operations performed using Storage
Navigator (and the SVP), generates a syslog, and outputs the syslog to
the Storage Navigator computer.
Hitachi SNMP Agent Provides support for SNMP monitoring and management. Includes
Hitachi specific MIBs and enables SNMP-based reporting on status and
alerts. SNMP agent on the SVP gathers usage and error information and
transfers the information to the SNMP manager on the host.
