V-Switch

The V-Switch is a storage virtualization and management solution that allows you to pool physical storage resources and re-partition the total storage capacity into virtual volumes that best meet your storage needs.

The V-Switch is a high performance appliance that operates in the data-path of a storage network between the hosts and storage sub- system. It provides a single, easy-to-use connectivity and management platform for administration of small to Enterprise class storage resources.

The V-Switch enables a network administrator to create and manage virtual storage volumes using SANRAD’s Volume Manager. The Volume Manager supports the creation and combination of concatenated, striped (RAID 0) and mirrored (RAID 1) volumes.

The Volume Manager provides for secure exposure of virtual volumes to hosts using the standards-based iSCSI TCP/IP-based protocol.
