SANBLAZE TECHNOLOGY ANNOUNCES INDUSTRY'S FIRST
8G FIBRE CHANNEL TARGET EMULATION SYSTEM
Maynard, MA, April 3, 2008 -- SANBlaze Technology, Inc., a leading provider
of Storage Emulation Systems, today announced the availability of the
SANBlaze VirtuaLUN8™ 8G Fibre Channel target emulation system, the
industryís first 8G target system. The VirtualLUN8 8G system provides
an extremely cost effective approach to 8G Fibre Channel device testing
and is available configured with 2, 4, 8 or 10 Fibre Channel ports running
at 2, 4 or 8 Gbps.
Each port can be configured to present from 1 to 512 virtual ìdisks,î
each with a configurable size, speed, attributes and profiles. With this
newest SANBlaze platform, customers can finally test 8G hardware and storage
applications in their test and development environments, reducing the
need to deploy large farms of physical ìscratchî disks, providing
high performance, non-volatile disk media at a fraction of the cost of
physical disks. "With the VirtuaLUN 8G system, SANBlaze further demonstrates
its commitment to offering the industry's most complete suite of emulation
systems," said SANBlaze CEO Steve Munroe.
A fully configured system can present over 5000 LUNs into the test environment,
providing our customers with a huge cost savings over building the same
capability using real disk drives.
The ability to add latency, have differing read/write sizes, inject a
wide variety of errors and save and restore multiple disk configurations
makes the VirtuaLUN 8G system a scalable, flexible and invaluable tool
for Fibre Channel HBA, switch, infrastructure and software companies.
The products feature set provides a unique test tool for product development,
QA and test, boundary and exception testing, performance, stability testing
and error handling.
The SANBlaze VirtuaLUN occupies a 1U or 2U rack space, providing test
labs with a highly optimized test environment in a compact footprint.
An integrated, easy to use web based interface allows configuration, re-configuration,
error injection and monitoring from any remote system.
Configurations and Availability
The SANBlaze VirtuaLUN 8G Target emulation system is available immediately
in multiple configurations based on port count and memory configuration.
