Connex Delivers SANavigator 1.5

Connex Inc. announced the availability of its SANavigator 1.5. The new version of the vendor and platform-independent SAN management application is the first comprehensive solution to support the SNIA Host Bus Adapter API for in-band discovery.

SANavigator 1.5 is a Java-based storage management application that operates as a host for other storage management applications, utilities, and tools from major storage vendors. It includes an Auto Discovery feature that performs a complete inventory of all SAN and NAS resources. The SANmap component of SANavigator presents a visual map of the SAN showing all devices and their interconnections.

SANavigator 1.5 also supports the SNIA standard as part of the Auto Discovery process. Other new features include data path zoning support for additional devices, a clipboard that makes it possible to copy information about devices to an Excel or Word file for reporting purposes, and a localization software development kit.
