Description

StrongLink stands out as the sole solution that integrates data management across different platforms with tools for managing storage resources based on policies. Utilizing cutting-edge metadata-driven technologies, it facilitates intelligent management of data across various storage types, including flash, disk, cloud, and tape, regardless of scale.

With the innovative StrongLink LTFS feature, tape storage is enhanced, leveraging metadata-driven intelligence to enable policy-based workflows that seamlessly connect with the broader storage infrastructure. Ideal for expanding environments, StrongLink equipped with LTFS can grow to meet extreme scale requirements while ensuring ease of use and automation in data management tasks.

Description

The smartmontools suite includes two key utilities, smartctl and smartd, designed to manage and oversee storage systems through the self-monitoring, analysis, and reporting technology integrated into the majority of contemporary ATA/SATA, SCSI/SAS, and NVMe drives. These tools often alert users to potential disk degradation and failure before they occur, offering invaluable preventative measures. Originally based on the Linux smartsuite package, smartmontools is compatible with ATA/SATA, SCSI/SAS, and NVMe drives, as well as SCSI/SAS tape devices. It is versatile enough to operate on a wide range of platforms, including modern versions of Linux, FreeBSD, NetBSD, OpenBSD, Darwin (macOS), Solaris, Windows, Cygwin, OS/2, eComStation, and QNX. Additionally, smartmontools can also be utilized from various live CDs/DVDs, enhancing its accessibility for users who may need it in different environments. This broad compatibility makes it a valuable tool for anyone looking to ensure the health and longevity of their storage systems.
