Let me clarify -

I'm wondering what companies, other than Network Appliance, also
incorporate snapshot capability?   Maybe they all do, and use different
wording, or some implementations are better/preferred than others?

Thanks again.

EMC with their Clariion/Celerra line provides snapshots also. The benefit they
have over Netapp is the snapshots can be saved on a separate volume so the
production filesystem is not cluttered with the snapshots. I can attest to the
use of the EMC solution as it works very well.

For my own knowledge, why is having snapshots on their own volume better than cluttered? Any particular scenarios where a separate volume for the snapshopts works better than cluttered?

Also, any other configuration and/or performance differences between the netapp and emc?

Thanks again.

Scott
