But wait, there’s more:

  • You can monitor and predict usage of Isilon storage clusters. Prediction is based on the rate of growth of capacity usage over time and extrapolated to identify when the capacity reaches 90%.
  • You can take advantage of the enhanced dashboard, including at-a-glance infographics that provide current health, status, and operations information for your monitored cluster.
  • You can easily monitor IPv6 data breakouts. InsightIQ reports IPv6 breakouts as separate clients instead of presenting them as one big generic IPv6 client group.
  • You can optionally communicate telemetry data to EMC through EMC Secure Remote Support.
  • InsightIQ 4.1.1 is fully compatible with OneFS 8.0.1 and IsilonSD Edge.
  • InsightIQ 4.1.1 is available as a free licensed product, which means that you can get community support through the EMC Community Network (ECN) Isilon Community.The new LDAP authentication tab in the web user interface allows you to point your InsightIQ instance to an LDAP server for authentication.
