SEAMLESS CONTROL OF FILER-HOSTED STORAGE
  Network Appliance Filers provide a cost-effective way to add large volumes of networked storage into an environment. Once these valuable storage resources have been added, the question quickly becomes: how do I manage it?
NTP Software QFS for NAS provides a seamless way to integrate the management of NAS-based storage with the management of pre-existing Windows storage.
QFS for NAS provides the functionality to create policies that control the manner in which storage is consumed via file screening and disk quota policies. These policies are deployed within a proprietary architecture designed to provide a cost-effective way to manage large amounts of storage. QFS for NAS maximizes the return on storage investment by providing the ability to control user-based storage consumption in enterprise NAS environments.
QFS for NAS has the flexibility to set policies per share, directory, user, or group on Filers and vFilers. Each of these policies can communicate with users via email and popups. Messages are also linked to an on-line help site that fully explains the message and provides users with guidance, advice, and — if you want — storage management tools, designed to reduce the end user community’s need to contact the help desk. |
