Software Suite
Most current shipping Smart Array products share a common set of configuration, management and
diagnostic tools, including HPE Smart Storage Administrator and HPE Systems Insight Manager. This
software consistency of tools reduces the cost of training for each successive generation of product
and takes much of the guesswork out of troubleshooting field problems. These tools lower the total
cost of ownership by reducing training and technical expertise necessary to install and maintain HPE
server storage.
