The Micro Focus File Management Suite for Open Enterprise Server (OES) is an integrated offering that provisions, relocates, optimizes, and reports on file storage based on user roles and customized business policies. File Management Suite helps customers manage the chaos of files and file systems in order to gain efficiencies, ensure compliance, and lower costs for their existing network and file storage infrastructure. The products in the suite are interoperable and complementary. Deploy the products independently, or deploy them in combination to take advantage of increased functionality and benefits.

The Micro Focus File Management Suite for OES includes the following products:

• Micro Focus File Reporter 3.0.3
  Micro Focus File Reporter inventories network file systems and delivers the detailed file storage intelligence you need to optimize and secure your network for efficiency and compliance. Engineered for enterprise file system reporting, File Reporter gathers data across the millions of files and folders scattered among the various network storage devices that make up your network. Flexible reporting, filtering, and querying options then present the exact findings you need so you can demonstrate compliance or take corrective action.

• Micro Focus Storage Manager 5.0 for eDirectory
  Micro Focus Storage Manager for eDirectory introduces management and structure to an unmanaged and unstructured Novell or Micro Focus network storage system. In the process, it automates the full life-cycle management of user and group storage. Leveraging directory services (commonly referred to as "the directory", Storage Manager automates a comprehensive set of storage management tasks based on events, identity, and policies that reside in the directory.

• Dynamic Storage Technology in OES 11 SP3 and OES 2015 SP1 (in eDirectory environments)
  Dynamic Storage Technology provides similar storage tiering capabilities as those in Micro Focus Dynamic File Services, but it is built in to the Open Enterprise Server platform. Dynamic Storage Technology is an information life-cycle management technology that uses a policy-based approach for relocating data between two paths. Dynamic Storage Technology provides two pair types to address your storage needs: standard pair and retention pair. The standard pair allows you to efficiently manage your storage across a pair of paths while giving users access to files on both. When users connect to a network share on the primary path, they see merged view of files. The retention pair allows you to keep active data on the primary path, and to move static data that might occasionally need to be accessed to a retention repository on the secondary path.
