"NetWare 6.5 supports new storage area network features that make it simple for NetWare environments to migrate to a robust storage area network," commented Richard Jones, Novell Storage Product Manager. "NetWare 6.x provides storage virtualization for simple capacity provisioning and volume spanning. We have also introduced data replication to support high availability requirements. With SANRAD and its vSwitch, our customers have the ability to easily and quickly build robust IP SANs for their NetWare applications."

The combination of NetWare's new array of storage management and SANRAD's vSwitch storage architecture delivers a highly available, scaleable and easy to manage IP SAN solution for Novell's enterprise-class and mid-tier customer base. These customers require performance, security, investment protection and reliability within networked storage architecture.  Using NetWare and SANRAD's vSwitch, users can consolidate servers and diverse storage systems in an easy to manage storage area network (SAN).

Uli Gal-oz, SANRAD CEO comments "NetWare 6.5 optimizes cluster services for the deployment of mission critical applications over economical iSCSI /IP SANs. Novell and SANRAD are providing powerful data availability and storage management tools to mid-range and enterprise customers. NetWare 6.5 storage features increase productivity while driving down the overall costs of managing data availability and storage resources. Our vSwitch complements NetWare 6.5 by providing IP SAN participation to legacy SCSI DAS or FC SAN systems, storage virtualization for server cluster volume sharing, active/active path failover for high availability, and non-disruptive provisioning and scaling of storage resources to 100s of TBs."
