SMB customers that initially start off with SAN Network Advisor Professional and have a small SAN
environment may over time feel the need for an enterprise-class product (SAN Network Advisor
Enterprise) as their environments start to grow in size and complexity, and as they start to uptake
more enterprise-class functionality (such as Fibre Channel Routing, FCIP, etc.). A non-disruptive
upgrade path is available from SAN Network Advisor Professional to SAN Network Advisor Enterprise.
HP SAN Network Advisor Enterprise and Professional+ are the enterprise-class products that support
FOS products. SAN Network Advisor Enterprise provides complete B-series Directors Management
including enterprise-class features/environments such as FICON, Fibre Channel Routing, FCIP, adaptive
networking, etc while SAN Network Advisor Professional+ provides the same feature set except for
support for the DC SAN Backbone Director, SN8000B 8-Slot Director, and FICON.
SAN Network Advisor Enterprise delivers unprecedented scalability, up to 24 fabrics and 9,000 switch
ports, while SAN Network Advisor Professional+ scales to 4 SAN Fabrics and 2560 switch ports. There
is an upgrade available from SAN Network Advisor Professional Plus to SAN Network Advisor
Enterprise.
