Automated user and group file system management for Micro Focus Open Enterprise Server networks.
Storage Manager manages according to specifications you establish in Storage Manager policies. You can create policies for how network storage is provisioned, managed, and cleaned up for users in a directory container or group. When creating a policy, you simply specify it once. Then when a specific “event” takes place in the directory, the rules of the policy are enacted.
As an identity-based product, Storage Manager grants and restricts user and group access to network storage areas based on user identity and role. This assures that users and group members have access to the network folders they need to do their work and that folders containing sensitive files are restricted to only those users who are authorized to access them.
Storage Manager works with any account provisioning or identity management system that populates user accounts in eDirectory or Active Directory. As soon as user objects are in the directory, Storage Manager can assign them (or the group objects to which they belong) to policies that initiate actions when directory events occur.
Storage Manager is part of a larger set of Micro Focus products offering network file system management.
