I'm looking for more specific info on how the principal switch selection procedure works. Is there any difference in the procedure between brands? When you install switches in the fabric, is the first swith installed becoming the principal, or is it based on the WWN? Will there be any case when...

Someone is asking me to try to restore the data on the drive, I don't have it with me yet. How about the OS? Is it Linux or proprietary? TIA

Hello, My DVD player (Samsung SD-616T, Dell Part #2C242) plays through until the last 2 to 4 minutes and then the picture freezes while the player continues to turn and the green seek light continues to blink. I am using Windows Media Player 9 and Windows XP on a Dell Dimension 8300 (2.8 GHz with...

If you stick enough hard drives together, you can easily surpass 2 terabytes of combined space and if you try to connect them via SCSI, you will apparently not see all your space. That's because host bus adapters from Adaptec and LSI Logic can't see anything larger than 2 terabytes. I am using a...

Is there a sites where I can learn Storage Management especially with Sun/Veritas Volume Managemet, EMC Symetrix Storage Manager and perhaps anything better than those two? THanks

Hello, I have to review possibilities to expand storage in our company. Can anybody help? We have about 20 Dell PE servers with Intel cpu, including one bigger file server with 1TB scsi matrix PV-220S. We have also a 500GB Dell PV-650 fibre channel connected to the same file server through a Dell...

I plan to setup a cluster using Dell hardwa shared PV-220S SCSI and PE 2650 with Perc 3/DC (or 4/DC if 3 is not available now) and PE 6650 with Perc 3/DC (server is configured and running). Did anybody test such configuration? What switching times I can expect with Perc 3/DC / 4/DC and PV...

Currently my TSM server is not running aio and after the holiday I'm considering turning it on. Does anyone know of a reason that an AIX TSM server should not run aio? Mike

I just read the paragraphs about RAID level 3, I don't know what do you think after reading this, the words of "synchronization of heads and spindles" make me recall the multiple platters and heads in one hard disk. Even the bandwidth of one hard disk is limited, it at least provide the function of...

Hi, Does iSCSI enables redundancy? For example: if I want to have 2 disks with the same data, can I do that with iSCSI? Thanks Erez

Hello I search a book to start up with Fibre Channel. who can give me a title. Thanks for help

Hello I am using a storage system from Dell/EMC CX-400 with two DAEs (two cases to fill in harddisks). One case is full with FC Seagate 15K 36GB harddisks. I have never been enthusiastic about its performance but at least it seems that you can operate an Oracle DB on these disks. The secound case...

Hi, we have a couple of EVA 5000, I'm planning to put Solars/sparc's in front of them as well as HP-UX/pa-risc and Linux/i386(compaq) (running large fileservers on HP-UX is a constant pain and we have a lot more Sun than HP as fileservers so I'd like to throw away HP as a fileserver and only run...

I have a 10 Gig directory on an XP box I would like to backup to DVDs. Any recommendation on software that can do this? Danny D.

Greetings All. I'm making my way through Farley's "Building Storage Networks". Chapter 2 Exercise Question 1 states "If a componet's reliability is calculated at 98%, what is the reliability of five of these components working together in a subsystem? What is the reliability if there are ten such...

We have been using AIT 2 and 3 drives for about 2 years now and have had many failures. We use libraries from Cybernetics and more recently ADIC. Our ADIC Scaler 100 is less than three months old and we have already replaced four drives. We have four Cybernetic two drive/30 tape libraries and...

What, if any, tuple in the CIS can be used to setup card controller common memory space bus cycle timings? I've found several high-speed, solid state CompactFlash cards report 250ns device speed in the device information tuple and yet these same cards actually work at, and are specified at,100ns...
