NexSan for nearline/archive/disk based backup storage.
These NexSan's come with 2GB FC ports and hence wanted feedback on Vixel's
9000 fabric switch. How easy is it to configure and maintain? We anticipate

Hi,
I'm very new to the storage technology, and have been doing some
readings to understand the basics of fiber channel technology.
I'm stuck with these two basic terms: fiber channel director, and

Zones and RSCN by
Jeff Specoli
Hello,
I'm new to SANs so please excuse my ignorance. I've been reading
about zoning and RSCNs. From what I've read RSCNs are sent to all
members of a zone after a change in the port status occurs on a port
in that zone. For example, if all servers are in the same zone, and
one of them is...

Linux Penguin
Currently we are experiencing alot of problems with tape backup and I
have had some thoughts.
Is it possible to purchase a SAN with a huge amount of disk space (say

Real-Storage
Hello NewsGroup,
I've seen some posts debating the merits of building your RAID or buying
your own RAID. I like to point out the benefits of purchasing your storage

on the web about which is the better overall switch: The Brocade
