Other than Oracle do you think any other companies would be willing to take
over support for a clustered 7410 appliance with 6 JBODs?

I'm not sure, but I think there are people running NexentaStor on that h/w.
If not, then on something pretty close. NS supports clustering, etc.
You would lose the fancy user interface and monitoring stuff that the
Fishworks team developed for the product. It would no longer be an
"appliance".
No doubt, Nexenta has developed new cool stuff for NexentaStor.
As others have said, only Oracle is capable of supporting the system
as the original product. It could be re-installed to become something
else.
