Description of IntelliMagic Vision for SAN

IntelliMagic Vision is an enterprise SAN performance and capacity management solution that combines deep knowledge of storage array performance and capacity with a deep understanding of the end-to-end connectivity. While most performance and capacity management solutions focus on either storage support or fabric support or VMware support, IntelliMagic Vision provides an end-to-end picture of the I/O stack from the VMware through the SAN fabric to the storage arrays. IntelliMagic Vision's AI-driven analytics continuously analyze the performance and configuration health of your multi-vendor SAN environment and automatically identifies issues such as: Storage array performance issues such as over-utilized and imbalanced ports and replication delays Zoning irregularities such as orphaned ports or hosts with single paths Orphaned storage and wasted capacity Capacity trending and forecasting IntelliMagic Vision is interactive and customizable so you can add and edit your favorite reports, start at a 30,000 foot level view and drill down to the most granular level, compare historical data, and more.

Quite helpful for setting up storage for Windows Virtual Machine

I like how it allows me to create logical volumes and see what they contain, including file system types (NTFS, FAT32, etc.). Also nice feature is you can use VHD or vmdk format images. No dislike as such! But maybe some other features are not very intuitive yet. For example when using VMware View Client Connector option while creating Storage Cluster - sometimes I dont get all options available in dropdown list. So far so good though and everything seems working fine. When testing different…

Pros
  • Abilityto manage storage resources
  • Supportfor multiple platforms(Windows Server 2008 R2and ESXi5)
  • Easy interfacewith great visuals.
  • Good support documentationavailable online at IBM website
Cons
  • Not the best

Very useful product for keeping an eye of your IT infrastructure

I like best how it can be used to monitor both physical servers as well virtualized ones, allowing you also keep track over their health status by using this tool! It's not very user friendly when compared against other products in its category but we're working hard at improving upon these aspects (even though they are good already). We've been able solve our technical problems regarding server monitoring within minutes instead having taken days or weeks before doing so without any tools such

Pros
  • The software is easy enough even if there isn't much help from support staff
  • There aren’t many limitations with regards hardware requirements works just fine under all operating systems including older versions that do still exist today.
  • Has an intuitive GUI interface which makes things easier than others similar programs outthere
  • Easy way through installation process; no need downloading anything else except installing program itself once downloaded
Cons
  • Empty

Great GUI experience; Fantastic troubleshooting capabilities

I've used intellimagic before, so it's not something new to me. It works really well & has helped us keep our vSAN in check when we're having issues elsewhere - such as disk space or server resources. Nothing at all! The UI looks great too :D We use this primarily during off hours because its pretty easy (once you get your head around how everything functions). When there are problems occurring during business time they can be difficult/frustrating but I feel like thats my problem more than…

Pros
  • Easy Operation Using Only Keyboard shortcuts Or Mouse Clicks On A GUI Window
  • No Need For Pointing Device Anywhere
Cons
  • There are troubles
