About the Hitachi IT Operations Analyzer

Monitors Server, Network and Storage

  • Monitors servers (application services and server status), network (LAN and SAN switches), and storage devices from a single interface
  • Eliminates need for extensive training and separate products to monitor individual devices, SAN fabrics and storage systems

Automates Root Cause Analysis

  • Automatically identifies cause of errors and acknowledges downstream events to remove “event paralysis” and reduce mean time to diagnose
  • Reduces downtime with quick recovery
  • Performs bottleneck analysis for performance issues related to heterogeneous server, network (LAN and SAN) and storage
  • Requires no manual intervention

Unifies through Web-based Interface

  • Lets the user easily view network performance while getting other work done
  • Summarizes availability and performance data through dashboard screen
  • Automates reporting
  • Uses intuitive Web 2.0 design

Enables User-defined Alerting

  • Allows user to define thresholds with templates based on application or group requirements
  • Sends email alerts automatically for threshold violations
  • Generation and delivery of alert reports can be sent at user-defined intervals

Simplifies Network Path View

  • Improves upon traditional displays with easy-to-understand topology of virtualized environments and simplified flat views of LAN and SAN with logical connections
  • Enables effortless segmentation of user defined groups for faster impact analysis
  • Provides logical path-view topology with health status, plus tables and at-a-glance views of user-defined groups for easier dependency mapping, analysis and management
  • Displays all dependencies and details for each device, including the relationships between virtual and physical servers
  • Integrates with root cause analysis to instantly show affected devices

Uses Agentless Architecture

  • Supports easy, fast, cost-effective deployment and maintenance using agentless technology
  • Eliminates extra work and disruption of installing software agents on each device in the IT environment to perform monitoring activities
  • Uses wizard-based discovery configuration and standard interfaces including SMI-S, SNMP, WMI and SSH
  • Simplifies configurations and unlike agent-based management software,  does not require reboot of servers for installation or updates

Supports Multiple Vendors, Platforms and Developer Plug-ins

  • Enables performance and availability monitoring of multiple operating systems including Microsoft Windows, Sun Solaris, Red Hat and SUSE Linux, IBM AIX and virtualization platforms from Microsoft and VMware
  • Supports most common systems and devices from all major vendors including; Hitachi, EMC, IBM, HP, Sun, NetApp, Cisco, Juniper, Brocade, QLogic, Extreme Networks, Enterasys, Netgear and D-Link
  • Monitors server environmental information using the industry-standard IPMI protocol (through plug-in) and for Dell Servers using OMSA metrics (through built-in plug-in)
  • Further extends monitoring options with open platform capabilities, including a more flexible plug-in framework to enable partners, ISVs and customers to write Java and XML based plug-ins for applications and devices which are not currently supported
