Arxview Data Center Analytics Engine Report List

Standard Discovery: Targets

• SAN Arrays

• NAS Filers

• VMware VCenter Servers

• Servers (physical and virtual)*

* Arxview gathers lists of servers in the course of the array discovery (as SAN hosts), the VMware

VCenter discovery (as ESX servers or virtual machines), and via Active Directory as standalone

Windows servers. Additional servers can also be bulk-loaded by spreadsheet or manually

entered.

Standard Discovery: Metrics Many metrics are available at any level in the physical structure: by enterprise, region, data center, storage type (SAN, NAS, DAS), or individual asset (array, filer, server).

LOB Metrics Arxview allows users to create logical containers (“LOBs”) that can be assigned various types of storage assets, including servers, drives, volumes, and so forth. These LOBs are typically used to represent the customer’s lines of business, project teams, or application groups. Once storage assets have been assigned to an LOB (via a simple drag-and-drop interface), the daily allocated and used space are displayed. In addition, many of the above metrics are reported on in the context of a specific LOB. For example, one can view an LOB’s asset inventory, its files, and so forth. These logical to physical dependencies are displayed throughout the product, including in a graphical, interactive topology view.
