EUROIMMUN AG had already been using the PoINT Storage Manager software to transfer and Archive data for several years. Image data was previously the major drain on valuable primary storage space: these images are unalterable and must remain accessible to employees. This is why, based on its own specific rules, EUROIMMUN AG now moves this data to a subsidiary storage level within its two-tier HSM architecture.
Challenges

- Inactive data moved based on predefined rules
- Read access without moving data back to primary storage
- Stubbing enables transparent access to files
Advantages
