Hi everybody,
I hope somebody can enlighten me on iSCSI and FICON.
I've searched but only come up with rather old information which may or may
not still be true.
What are the advantages / disadvantages of one over another?
I assume (but could be wrong), that iSCSI would be the cheaper protocol to
use and that FICON offers the higher performance, but by how much?
For example would it be safe to say iSCSI cost xx% of FICON, but FICON
offers yy% more performance?
Are there some applications that FICON is suitable for, but iSCSI is
incapable of doing? Maybe data duplication to remote sites?
And lastly, does Z/os even support iSCSI?
No.
And this question should be asked as FIRST, not last. ;-)
