• Monumental data growth is
happening
– IDC estimates that the total terabytes
shipped will continue to grow at the
rate of 39%* or higher annually from
2011 through 2016.
• Has your organization
considered the long-term
impact of this level of data
growth?

15. SMB Auto Location
Automatic Node Referrals
• Reduces file access latency
for Windows® file services
– Automatically selects optimized
data path for CIFS/SMB clients
– Moving or relocating data
volumes will update client DFS
cache for future access
– Client independent: supports
clients from Windows XP and
later
