customers have focused on day to day business and ignored the growth of individual
servers and their dedicated storage. As these storage "islands" have expanded
to more significant capacity levels, total storage utilization across the enterprise
and the inability to share data between applications have become inhibitors
to further growth.
Growth can be addressed through automated storage allocation procedures
