A simple SAN
With Xsan 2, it's easy for first-time users such as workgroups in small film and video productions, podcast clusters, small graphics shops, and boutique post houses to set up and deploy a SAN.

The new Server Assistant in Leopard Server automatically recognizes the presence of a Fibre Channel storage area network and walks users through the Xsan installation and setup process.

Its no longer necessary to learn how to create private metadata networks or volumes optimized for different data types. A new SAN Setup assistant guides you through the volume creation process and setup of computers on the SAN. Xsan handles the complete "after cable-up" setup and configuration of the SAN.

Storage configuration
With Xsan Admin, complex tasks such as expanding a volume, optimally configuring volume settings, or managing file system permissions are now easier and less error prone. SAN components computers, volumes, and LUNs are logically presented as assets, and an overview of SAN health is prominently displayed.

Support for 2PB files and volumes
Xsan lets your users share multiple files and volumes; each can be as large as 2 petabytes, or more than 3 months worth of uncompressed 1080i high-definition (HD) video at 30 frames per second. Xsan supports billions of files per volume, with each metadata controller hosting multiple volumes at the same time.

File-level locking
Fine-grained file-level locking enables simultaneous access to shared files. All clients can access all the files on the volume, but only the client that has read/write privileges can edit a locked file. This contrasts with volume-level locking, which enables only one computer at a time to write to an entire volume. File-level locking provides enormous productivity advantages in post-production workflows where multiple editors are using a single large file.

File system access controls
Xsan supports flexible file permissions that not only work with Mac clients, but are fully compatible with Windows Server, Windows Vista, and Windows XP. With file system ACLs, any file object can be assigned multiple users and groups, including groups within groups. Each file object can also be assigned both allow and deny permissions, as well as a granular set of permissions for administrative control, read, write, and delete operations. For added security, Xsan supports a file permission inheritance model, ensuring that user permissions are inherited when files are moved to the SAN and rewritten when files are copied to the SAN.

Optimized performance
Xsan has always been designed for performance, and Xsan 2 is no exception. Xsan 2 uses a next-generation data and storage pool distribution strategy with enhanced affinity management to dramatically improve high-bandwidth streaming workloads, such as those used by Final Cut editors.

One for all. All for one
MultiSAN allows a single workstation or server to access Xsan volumes hosted by separate Xsan metadata controllers. Hosting volumes on separate Xsan controllers can improve the performance, reliability, and sustainability of critical volumes. Each volume is independently hosted, so a failure of any one volume does not affect another.
