HP 3PAR Policy Manager Software -
Overview & Features

Overview

With HP 3PAR Policy Manager Software, customers have the ultimate flexibility and control to allow or deny outbound communications or remote service connections to and from HP 3PAR Storage Systems at the customer site. Policy Manager enables customers to define and implement remote service access policies. Policy configurations are managed by the customer, ensuring integrity of customer-configured remote access policies. To ensure limited access, Policy Manager is installed on a customer-provided server.

Policy Manager also serves as the centralized point for collecting and storing audit logs of all diagnostic data transfers and authorized remote service connections to and from all devices managed by the software. Since policies are administered by the customer, the audit logs are a trusted source for reporting and compliance.
