New version of VERITAS Global Cluster Manager available

VERITAS has announced a new version (3.5.1) of its Global Cluster Manager software, an out-of-the-box solution that allows administrators to centralise control of their disaster recovery environment for application availability and data replication products from EMC, Hitachi and VERITAS on all major platforms, including AIX, HP-UX, Linux, Solaris and Windows.

Global Cluster Manager 3.5.1 is Web-based software that, according to VERIRAS, helps lower the cost of implementing disaster recovery technology, while helping IT departments meet service and availability levels for their critical applications and data. It also helps eliminate reliance on proprietary hardware by helping administrators efficiently utilise heterogeneous environments.

New enhancements to VERITAS Global Cluster Manager include:
* Wide-area disaster recovery for Microsoft Exchange 2000 servers
* Support for management of Hitachi TrueCopy, Hitachi's data replication suite
* Support for the IBM AIX operating environment
* Management of clustered Linux servers.

Disaster recovery for Microsoft Exchange
VERITAS Customers looking to implement wide-area disaster recovery for Exchange environments will benefit from the capabilities designed for Microsoft Exchange in this new version of VERITAS Global Cluster Manager. The software now manages clustered Exchange servers from a single point, and coupled with replication management, facilitates wide-area application recovery for corporate e-mail, helping to reduce the speed required to recover Exchange servers from a site failure.
