Advantages for virtualized enviroments
NetApp harmonizes perfect with VMware and Citrix XenServer. With the SnapShot-technology you carry out the efficient 
backup of your VMs. FlexClon creates a copy of a VM without reserve memory and with Thin-Provisioning
there will only be reserved the memory, which is actually needed for a VM.
