Re: Disksuite, Sun SSA & Linux

[Gregg Mackenzie]

Great!  Would either of you care to elaborate?

Is the Linux server a Sun SPARC, or PC with some kind of
fiber card?  Was it all pretty straight-forward, or was
there some wailing and gnashing of teeth to get it to work?

How does the performance of Linux/raidtools/SSA (or A5000)
compare to Solaris/Disksuite/SSA or Solaris/VxVM/SSA?

Thanks!
