FUJITSU Storage ETERNUS SF MA

ETERNUS SF MA is highly-efficient software for performance measurement and analysis, capturing real-time performance data from ETERNUS AF All-flash arrays, ETERNUS DX Hybrid storage systems, NetApp storages, FC-Switches, IP-Switches, servers and virtual machines. Long-term preservation of performance data allows instant extraction of historical information. ETERNUS SF MA provides a user-friendly interface which enables administrators to continuously supervise the infrastructure performance with detailed metrics from a single pane of glass.

Features and Benefits

Features	Benefits
Real-time performance data capture from storage, network, servers and virtual machines.	Rapid recognition of misbehaving IT systems and underperforming storage systems
Comprehensive visualization of resources	Easy determination of the performance of CPU, Memory, Swap Times, I/O of servers and VM’s, and of the connection relationship between a storage resource and a server. Easy determination if storage is delivering the IOPS, throughput and latency required by the existing server and virtualized environment Helps to increase and maintain service levels Easy performance evaluation through direct comparison with historical data
Dashboard graphical display	Real-time analysis of bottlenecks during backups, boot storms, or virus scans Single pane-of-glass view reduces labor cost and working hours Customizable to individual needs
Reporting	Extensive evaluation over hours, days and months to see if there are bottlenecks, when they occur, and which servers, virtual machines or I/O paths are affected Ensures that services and production can cope with diversifying businesses
