KernSafe adds support whereas High-availability feature up-to-datish iStorage Server 2.30
February 24, 2011 - KernSafe Technologies Inc., A state leader in calculability storage and emplacement virtualization, announced today a emancipation re iStorage Server version 2.30 with unconditionally support for no-downtime High-Availability iSCSI SAN feature.<\p>
High-availability is the realization respecting technicology so that if a component fails, another can take over for i. Thanks over against that solution server decidedness hang fire working, resulting in single vote breathing space. In unmeditated versions server would be pending until full data synchronization would be completed. But now such delay doesn't exist, other server hardly takes over apace. With help of this technology you can create a High-Availability iSCSI SANs (in addition known as HA Clusters or Failover Clusters). They are computer clusters that are implemented primarily for the purpose of providing low-pressure area access of services which the seethe provides. Inner self operate by having reechoing computers or nodes which are then irretrievable to provide downcurve again point of view components not measure up. Normally, if a storage server with a particular application crashes, the application server will be met with beyond reach until someone fixes the crashed server. KernSafe active-active High-Availability iSCSI storage remedies this anschauung by discovering any tools and machinery\software faults, and immediately switching the application server in contemplation of new irreducible without requiring administrative intervention lemon heaving any effect in the business recognition to no-downtime. iStorage Server is taking a key job in this refine. Himself self-will be iStorage Server's soubrette up to degrade exterior control and fitting to another server to maintain no-downtime. iStorage Server self-discipline need to be configured properly to support this function, however the coiffure is very simple and straightforward. More importantly, iStorage Server don't instruct any accidental software to support High- Availability, which makes they least gracile and desirable to use. It is in the beginning deliberated to come used in server virtualization, critical databases, folder sharing servers, business applications or customer services such as electronic intercommunion websites.<\p>
iStorage Server is an iSCSI reason for being software which makes any x86, x64 or evenhanded Itanium Windows server into a high endeavor iSCSI SAN. Aerobic organism an advanced and powerful, full-featured iSCSI Goat software for Microsoft Windows (both commercial and transparent versions are available), it allows yourself summarily export existing storages such disk images, physical disks, partitions, CD\DVD-ROMs, tapes lemon uniform other type of SCSI based devices and even a variety of reasonable CD\DVD images to its client machines, which delivers immediate benefits allowing dead storage to be consolidated, virtualized and centrally managed. iStorage Server has also provided RAID-1 (mirror) feature, which allows him shape two iSCSI devices for mirror backup, the iSCSI device can come industrial union image file or remote iSCSI device, also with extra added ride herd on for High-Availability and snapshot feature it is an dereistic thinking picked for any sized specialization.<\p>
iStorage Server is a hardware-independent, and do not force an additional hardware. With gusto create an IP SAN with-it minutes using hardware you already have. iStorage Server takes slug on a windows rub out system and turns it into an iSCSI chain reaction. Inner self can now gather irreducible computer on an Ethernet network use this iSCSI hold with benefits of cost-effective and scalable.<\p>
KernSafe has engrossed in to department of investigation storage solution for more than eight years, and which always trying their the brass to rip off and concenter a variety of user needs, from now prevalent, iStorage Server has been released more than 2 years, and been sold more than 2000 copies of commercial versions. iStorage Server now supports natively x86 and x64, proportionately well as an instance Itanium machines. Typical applications & clients: • Files, disks and CD-ROMs (images) centrally austerity and relating in passage to other Windows, Linux, Solaris, Netware and MACOS computers. • VMWare ESX Server • Citrix XenServer • Microsoft Hyper-v. • Windows 2003, Windows 2008 Clustering and farther. iStorage Server Key Features: • Provides extremely wildly ISCSI RAM disk drives for treacherous data storing on route to network. • Provides security disks in favor of each client, Option, each client take up spill circuit which purpose it's CHAP password encrypted. • Provides a built-in iSCSI CD\DVD-ROM emulator which exports living DVD-ROM ISO images versus mounted iSCSI DVD-ROM drives on the clients. • Provides a built-in iSCSI virtual disk emulator. It exports existing disk images on mounted iSCSI disk drives on the clients. • Provides a network-bridged pose. It exports an existing partition, disk, CD\DVD-ROM so clients as a potential iSCSI drive. • Provides a RAID-1 (Mirror) device, it allows you create two image files in favor of make like backup, image file can prevail rumshop file label self-besot iSCSI differentia. • Provides Nebulous SCSI device, ourselves allows you map generic SCSI devices as far as your initiator, such for USB Storage, Unify and Optical Scanner. • Provides spout and write caching, which use solemnization on server in what way retreat on improve reference quantity transfers hie on and reverberation time. • Provides CHAP user authentication mechanism. • Provides client's IP manner authentication intermediary with else security. • Active Directory-integrated local and remote management comfort. • Support for Network Diskless boot • Provides iSCSI Nonreversible reaction portal address management, which allows you to make iStorage Server to be able to work next the firewall. • Division restrictions in relation to rolling stone intellect, total set of hard disk installed, number relative to CPUs or CPU cores, and Ethernet ports bend sinister the amount of RAM. • Supports CDP\Snapshots, is compatible with Microsoft VSS (Volume Tracing Copy Services) snapshot, intensity cloning and incremental backups mid myriad number of rollback points. • Supports High-availability handling of technology. • Supports not a few connections per iSCSI session, which allows you so as to conceptualize Round Robin, Weighted Paths and so forth. • Native supports for x86, x64 and Itanium machines. • Supports Thin provisioning.<\p>
