12. Storwize Mobile Dashboard
iPhone app provides monitoring and health checking for Storwize family systems
Available free from Apple App Store
A new storage mobile dashboard app is available to monitor the performance and health of Storwize family systems. The app works with all Storwize family systems and one instance of the app can manage multiple systems.
At this point, the app is display only. It cannot alter system configurations. At the bottom, you can see used capacity. The bar changes color as capacity usage increases. Above that, you can see a graph of either recent latency (on the left) or IOPS (on the right). You can also view alerts for the systems and there is a filter capability to show only specific alert types.
The app is available today for iOS devices from the Apple App Store. If you don’t have a Storwize family system, you can run it in demo mode to see what it looks like. Search for ‘IBM Storage Mobile Dashboard’

14. Easy Tier – Automated Storage Tiering
Licensed Function
Hot-spots
Optimized performance and throughput
Automatic
Relocation
SSDs
HDDs
A function that dynamically re-distributes active data across multiple tiers of storage based on workload characteristics  automatic storage hierarchy
The goal is to increase performance through reducing response times
SSDs have better throughput and response time with random reads
Dynamic movement of the hottest data to the highest performance storage enables a small number of SSD to benefit the entire infrastructure

Easy enablement via Storwize GUI
Transparent to servers and applications
Metro Mirror for synchronous copy up to 300km
Global Mirror for asynchronous copy up to 8000km
Remote mirror must be licensed at source and destination
Integrated Bridgeworks SANSlide network optimization technology
Accelerated replication up to 3x times faster
Improve remote data currency and faster recovery
Compared to IP replication without acceleration
Source
Volume
Destination
TCP/IP Network
One of the most important new functios in Storwize family is IP replication, which enables the use of lower cost ethernet connections for remote mirroring. The capability is available as a chargeable option on all Storwize family systems.
The new function is transparent to servers and applications (they have no idea it is being used) in the same way that traditional FC-based mirroring is.
All remote mirroring modes (metro mirror, gloal mirror, and global mirror with changed volumes) are supported although it is expected that GM with CV will be the preferred option.
Configuration of the system is straightforward: Storwize family systems will normally find each other on the network and can be selected from the GUI.
IP replication includes Bridgeworks SANSlide network optimization technology and is available at no additional charge. That is to say, remote mirror is a chargeable option but the price doesn’t change with IP replication. Existing remote mirror users have access to the new function at no additional charge.
