PacketTrap Networks’ Perspective Software Now Includes Virtualization Monitoring

October 28, 2008 by Robin Wauters Leave a Comment

PacketTrap Networks is set to announce that its network troubleshooting and remediation solution, Perspective, now includes virtualization monitoring. The free virtualization module helps IT managers identify virtual machines and other resources throughout their life cycles. It is integrated into Perspective’s dashboard, which Richard Ptak from Ptak & Associates (www.ptaknoelassociates.com) calls a “powerful and intuitive interface that makes the task of getting information much easier.”

Perspective was designed with the help of more than 10,000 network administrators who provided critical input regarding features, functions and usability. This community of users helped determine the requirements for Perspective’s new virtualization module, which led to features such as discovery, tracking, capacity planning, traffic analysis and alerting/reporting notification capabilities.

Perspective’s Virtualization module makes it easy to monitor virtual environment to ensure it is running smoothly. It automatically discovers host ESX servers and associated guest virtual machines and provides insight into key statistics like status, CPU, memory, disk usage, and interface traffic. As resource allocation changes, Perspective updates to provide you with the most real-time information about a virtualized environment.

Vizioncore Updates vRanger and vCharter Pro

July 17, 2008 by Robin Wauters 1 Comment

Vizioncore has released an upgrade to its backup and restore solution for virtualization environments, vRanger Pro 3.2.4. With vRanger Pro, administrators can schedule regular image-level backups of virtual or physical machines – while the machine is still running.  Images can be stored either locally in the SAN or sent as compressed files over a WAN to remote locations to support disaster recovery strategies. vRanger Pro also enables restore of individual files efficiently with an explorer tree through which users can easily identify and “grab” needed files.

vRanger Pro 3.2.4 is a minor update to the core 3.2 functionality.  There are two key components of this release: VCB Differential Backups and Support for FIPS encryption. Also included in this release are several bug fixes.

In addition, Vizioncore has released a minor dot release to its enterprise-level virtualization monitoring solution, vCharter Pro 3.0.1.  Key improvements include support for external Oracle databases (versions 9i or 10g) and a significant number of bug fixes. The 3.0.1 version of vCharter Pro now also supports installation on the 64-bit version of Windows Server 2003.
