While the ongoing shift in the data center to server virtualization offers numerous performance and efficiency benefits, several challenges come with it, including virtual machine (VM) sprawl and the lack of optimal storage utilization that can result. To combat this, enterprises need visibility into their entire infrastructure, including servers, network, and storage arrays, along with the ability to manage all three contextually. SANscreen enables cross-domain visibility from the virtual server environment to the storage environment, providing increased management capabilities. Furthermore, SANscreen’s discovery, monitoring, and reporting capabilities allow a more holistic view of the data center. SANscreen also enhances NetApp’s Virtual Data Center partnership with VMware through tight integration with VMware’s recently released vSphere and vCenter.[ad#linkunit1]To learn more about NetApp® SANscreen, please visit
