Today?s information technology (IT) organizations are dealing with the consequences of exploding infrastructure complexity. At the root of the problem is uncontrolled server sprawl?servers provisioned to support a single application. Organizations that have implemented hardware virtualization have unwittingly created a new problem: operating system (OS) sprawl. IT organizations have to find ways to address this critical challenge?today.

Historically the solution has been to allow the file system to generate the fragmentation and then, sometime thereafter, run a process to consolidate files and/or free space on the file system.

Planning to expand, Align?a medical device manufacturer?identified electronic document management as a vital component of growth. One goal was to reduce the time needed to process change orders, as its current processes were all manual. After the vendor selection process, Align chose a change management solution that offers fully compliant and redundant protection for the company?s data. Learn more about the benefits that helped Align save $250,000 (USD) in administration costs.

While software vendors continue making advancements in technology to speed up the disk fragmentation process, it continues to remain an issue—one that needs to be addressed at the file system level.

Microsoft Windows Storage Server 2003 is frequently deployed in small or midsize applications. And while many customers view it as an excellent small network-attached storage (NAS) solution, they often move to larger, proprietary file server appliances when their needs expand beyond its capacity. This approach, however, adds more expense and complexity. But with Sanbolic?s Melio Cluster, capacity can be added as needed.

Historically, IT administrators have provisioned new servers with every new application, resulting in a large number of servers with utilization rates of 10 to 15 percent or less, commonly known as server sprawl. Server sprawl is responsible for a range of costs, including infrastructure, hardware, software, and management costs. So why hasn?t hardware virtualization solved your server sprawl issues yet?

File System – The file system houses the technical manuals (TMs) , troubleshooting guides, and any forms that may be used in the maintenance of the platform. The use of a central file system allows content updates or changes to be broadcast and automatically installed to the E-IML, offering maintainers the most up-to-date information.

Currently, the 11 ESX Servers access nearly 4 TB of provi- sioned storage, configured as 8 VMFS file systems and 11 ESX boot volumes, all resident on the EqualLogic SAN. Each VMFS file system data volume is auto-load balanced across the 5 member arrays and all the disk drives in the SAN.

It important to note that most file systems do not immediately reclaim space from deleted files, leaving those blocks on disk and consuming empty block with new writes.

While the virtues of encrypting PC data are extolled by vendors and the press alike, some painful truths go largely unmentioned. Whether necessary for compliance or state breach disclosure law, or for doing business in a state requiring it, encryption is necessary but difficult. Learn where existing encryption solutions are failing, and find out how emerging tools and trends can make encryption better, and easier.

The ability to simply drag-and-drop images between other applications (or folders) and the image exchange solution, rather than having to hunt for an image in file system directory lists, would vastly improve the productivity of the solution.
