- SANRAD Incorporated, specialist in iSCSI SAN solutions and a member of
Novell's iSCSI development program, announced that its vSwitch -iSCSI
Virtualization Switch - supports Novell's NetWare 5.1 through 6.x operating
environments, including the soon-to-be-released NetWare 6.5. As part of

"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." (ma) SANRAD Contact:
