Figure 13. The Navisphere Express components page You can also use Navisphere Express to set up email event notification or enable SNMP. SnapView snapshots The AX150 comes bundled with software to take point-in-time copies of data. These copies, or snapshots, may then be presented to a second host for backup or testing purposes. Up to eight snapshots-one for each of eight distinct virtual disks-are supported within the AX150. The AX150 transparently configures all resources necessary to manage the snapshots and point-in-time data consistency. SAN Copy/E SAN Copy/E is available as an enabler package for customers managing their Fibre Channel AX systems with Navisphere Manager. SAN Copy/E is not supported by Navisphere Express. The SAN Copy/E driver is installed on the AX storage system and can be used to push data from the AX to other CX systems running the full SAN Copy driver software. The AX150 can be always be used as a target for SAN Copy data. Data may be copied from a CX Series array running the full SAN Copy driver to an AX150 Series storage system regardless of whether or not it has the SAN Copy/E enabler installed. Software upgrades With the AX150, software can be upgraded as necessary. All software is delivered as bundles. These bundles are then applied using Navisphere Express.
