Ok, let me ask a clarifying question ... Isn't NetApp a NAS (Network Attached Storage) and NOT a SAN. Their NetApp filer boxen run a proprietary file system, not the same as a SAN connected box running the native file system (NTFS)
-----Original Message----- From: Robert Jackson [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Sent: Tuesday, September 09, 2008 8:07 AM To: NT System Admin Issues Subject: NetApp SAN For Virtualisation Just looking for some feedback. Is/has anyone used NetApp as their backend in a VMWare solution? We've had someone in this morning talking to us about going down the virtualisation road and their backend SAN solution is NetApp using NFS. I know lots of you (already virtualised people out there) are using an EMC solution with iSCSI (and or possibly FC) but I haven't heard much of NetApp. Pros/Cons? Steer well clear of etc etc would be a good starter for us. TIA. ************************************************************************ The information in this internet E-mail is confidential and is intended solely for the addressee.
