Huawei eSight Storage Manager

eSight Storage Manager

Huawei eSight Storage Manager is storage resource management


software designed for the centralized O&M of storage devices
at enterprise data centers. This software implements unified
management of storage devices from different vendors, and
provides functions such as global topology display, capacity
analysis, performance analysis, health assessment, fault locating,
and end-to-end mapping views of host applications and storage
devices. The storage O&M efficiency is greatly improved with
this software. This software brings the following benefits: 1).
Simplifies device management by centrally managing storage
devices of different vendors and models. 2). Facilitates fault
locating by graphically showing faults generated on disks, ports,
power modules, fan modules, LUNs, and resource pools. 3).
Improves storage resource use efficiency by analyzing the status
quo and utilization trend of the storage space allocated to host
applications, host IOPS, and latency.

Features
Centralized management of over 30 storage devices from different
vendors, simplifying storage management.

End-to-end storage path analysis, facilitating fault locating


Analysis of the full path: Hosts > Disks > HBAs > Switch Ports >
Storage Controllers > LUNs
Single point of failure can be quickly located.

Easy management of Fibre Channel switches (Brocade and QLogic)

Storage health assessment and system diagnosis, improving system


stability
Capacity analysis report, providing basis for space planning and
reducing storage costs
