We've just posted SPACEWatch Storage Suite v5.7 build 63 to the web site. This is an update to all editions in the Suite and includes some neat new features. Here's a run down of the main ones:
Storage Browser
We've ditched the old way of choosing what data you want included in your SPACEWatch analyses and introduced a completely new - and hopefully much more intuitive - approach called the Storage Browser. Here's a snapshot of what it looks like with a Windows network...
First you'll notice that its all point and click - just browse around your systems and tick on the top-level share/drive/folder you want to include. It will list all your hidden shares as well!
Of course we've incorporated all platforms into the Storage Browser - whether its UNIX/linux, Exchange or Domino. Here's what your Microsoft Exchange servers will look like if you're using SPACEWatch for Exchange...
And on IBM Lotus Domino you now get to browse down to sub-folders from the data directory:
Longer directory paths
Many people have asked for this one - we've now increased the maximum directory path supported to 8,000 characters. It appears that on some large networks you really do need that size.
When SPACEWatch Enterprise/Domino/Exchange v5.7.63 first connects to a SQL space database created with a previous version it will alter the database to include this new feature.
Welcome page
Sometimes you just want to focus on the key tasks - and rather than navigating around SPACEWatch's many task panes and menus we've now created a welcome page to help. You can turn this off if you want (just tick on the box at the bottom), or leave it to load automatically every time you start.
