A single point of view for all your storage
- Monitor Storage Resources

- Add more reports out of the box
- Include more dashboard

Solar Winds SRM integrates well with Orion
- LUN-level capacity use
- LUN-level performance data
- Capacity forecast for each LUN
- Most of the metrics are fairly high level
- No visibility into virtual disks (you need Virtualization Monitor for that)
- Not much granularity in hardware health

When it isn't the network (but it's always the network, isn't it!?) then it's the storage -- but can you prove it??
- Unmasks storage performance metrics and gives a common dashboard for monitoring.
- A simple, intuitive interface for adding supported storage frames.
- Lineage -- "The guest OS is connected to the virtual host and the virtual host is connected to the ... wait, what LUN is that?!?" #SOLVED.
- No ability to add your own storage frames -- if it isn't supported, you aren't monitoring it.
- Troubleshooting connectivity failures lack full transparency. It isn't needed often, but could be more verbose.
- It's expensive relative to the other tools from SolarWinds -- but, then again, so was your shared storage!

Storage Resource Monitor - with ease
- Asset inventory for storage
- Predicting the future usage
- Performance metrics
- Revealing the internal statistics such as temperatures and hardware condition
- The list of devices covers the most popular, but adding more types of devices is always helpful
- Device types make it difficult to connect some times (on the vendor side) but the product does a good job, configuration could be easier for setting up devices.

SolarWinds Storage Resource Monitor Review
- The SolarwWinds Storage Resource Monitor does good reporting and alerting to an issue. Our service center which has live monitoring uses the tool for real-time monitoring of events. It then creates tickets to action various alarms.
- Real-time size monitoring of especially thin storage is always necessary to any thin VMware environment.
- Great historical graph representations of storage related events. Ability to create performance graphs and monitor changes.
- Currently there is no support for XtremIO storage. So we have to monitor that separately.
- It could provide proactive measures to fix any Storage or SIOC related bottlenecks in the environment.
