HP SANworks Network View is a SAN management application providing a consolidation point for storage network visualization, monitoring and
configuration. SAN devices, their Fibre Channel interconnects, and associated status are automatically discovered and displayed in an intuitive
topographical network map. SAN device management is made easy by double clicking on a device icon. System performance bottlenecks are identified
for proactive resolution and planning. A JAVA applet based design allows remote SAN management from any web browser. Network View is easily
installed on the Management Appliance and because it is an appliance application; host operating system integration is not a necessity.
