Huawei Symantec OceanspaceTM ISM is a uniform

storage management system designed for Huawei
Symantec Oceanspace series storage products to
implement the functions of device management, cloud
storage resource management, storage network
management through incorporated the three
management software suites. Boasting a variety of
user-friendly designs such as secure and convenient GUI,
quick installation, operation wizard, default
configuration, and alarm suppression, the ISM leads you
into the Oceanspace storage world.

Product Features

ISM device management software: time saving, easy-to-manage, and interconnecting

ISM cloud storage management software: easy-to-deploy, easy-to-maintain, easy-to-upgrade, and
easy-to-use

ISM storage network management software: higher capacity, higher flexibility, and easier management

ISM Device Management Software

Time saving
The initial configuration of the Oceanspace
storage device can be completed within five
minutes with the help of installation wizard and
default configuration.
Similar configuration operations can be
completed at one time. The task manager is used
to process volume configuration at the
background.
The Java Web Start (JWS) technology enables
system installation to be completed within 15
seconds and system management to be done
anywhere.

Easy-to-use
The task manager provides a device
management task list and displays the task
status to let you easily capture all information of
the management tasks.
The unique physical view of devices vividly
displays the device status and helps you know
your devices in a graphical way.
The overall information clearly lists the
