Server Linkage Functions
The ETERNUS DX Disk storage system supports various functions that are provided by linking
with servers.
Examples of these functions include a backup function that does not place a load on the server and a function
that can obtain information from the ETERNUS DX Disk storage system and visualize this information without
using ETERNUS Web GUI. These functions enable integrated infrastructure management in a virtual
environment.
Note that some of these functions may require plug-ins or firmware updates. Refer to the following

Oracle VM Linkage
"Oracle VM Manager", which is the user interface of "Oracle VM" server virtualization software, can manage the
ETERNUS DX Disk storage system.
"ETERNUS Oracle VM Storage Connect Plug-in" is required to use this function.
The Oracle VM Storage Connect framework enables Oracle VM Manager to directly use the
resources and functions of the ETERNUS DX Disk storage system in an Oracle VM environment.
Native storage services such as Logical Unit Number (LUN) creation, deletion, expansion, and snapshots are
supported.
