NetApp Shuffles Management Pack: Page 2 of 3

With the Onaro deal closing yesterday, Georgens will be working to integrate the SRM vendor's technology into NetApp's Storage Management and Integration Software division.

NetApp is also embroiled in a patent infringement lawsuit with Sun, to the dismay of users.

NetApp's previous president, Tom Mendoza, now becomes company vice chairman, where he will be responsible for interacting with customers and garnering feedback for future product development. In the newly created role, the 14-year NetApp veteran will also be expected to lead a workforce that's increasingly diverse geographically and culturally.

"Freeing Mendoza from operational responsibilities to focus his energy on our customers and culture will help us become even more responsive to the market," said NetApp CEO Dan Warmenhoven.

Both Mendoza and Georgens will continue to report directly to Warmenhoven.
