StorMagic Adds New Reseller Features

StorMagic, for the uninitiated, is involved in the iSCSI SAN (Storage Area Network) management software for virtualized server environments. The company says it has signed up over 60 resellers since launching the SvSAN storage virtual appliance last year. And during the recent VMWare Partner Exchange in Las Vegas, StorMagic made some new partner program moves. Here are the details.

StorMagic is introducing reseller incentives, like many partner programs have been as of late. What’s included is an “additional discount for opportunity registration” along with onsite StorMagic training, and lead sharing. All resellers get a complimentary SupportSuite contract with access to the knowledge base, technical support and online chat. Also, they’ll receive two SvSAN licenses with Unlimited Capacity Management and High Availability for evaluation.

In Q4 of 2009, StorMagic launched the SvSAN HA (High Availability) Kit enabling  shared storage large organizations need when implementing  VMware High Availability, VMware VMotion and VMware Distributed Resource Scheduler.

Users can download the SvSAN HA here, but once the trial period ends, it’ll cost (as low as) $995 per node, though prices can get higher.
