TLDR
In this paper, a storage management system is described, which includes an agent configured to collect storage management information for a storage object and to communicate the information to the data collector, and a user interface is used to display the information for the storage objects.Abstract:
A storage management system is provided. The storage management system may includes a data collector configured to receive storage management information for storage. The storage manager includes an agent configured to collect storage management information for a storage object and to communicate the storage management information to the data collector. The storage management system includes a user interface configured to display the storage management information for the storage objects.read more
