Could Windows act as an iSCSI server? by
Benno...
I know that Windows 2000 and 2003 server can be a iSCSI host but can you
setup a Windows machine as iSCSI server?
In other words can you use Windows to create some sort of SAN/NAS device
that services it's disks to other Windows hosts via iSCSI?

Thanks!

remote management interface for NetApp Filers by
asdf
Hi All,
Anyone familiar with NetApp Filers? I'm trying to find out if
NetApp Filers support some sort of management software interface, such
as Microsoft's WMI (WEBM implementation) that would allow the management
of file system entities (from volumes down to the file level).
Thanks!

Fibre Channel Hub by
Rico
hi,
Can anyone recommend a fibre Channel hub which will provide failover
for a W2k cluster with a Metastor E2400 and QLA2300F/66 2Gb PCI HBA's.
Would a IBM Netfinity Fibre Channel Hub - 3523 or Emulex LH1005 do the
job?
I'm looking for something less expensive than 8 port switch.
cheers
