Looking for a little feedback folks.
We've got a SAN replacement coming up in a few months. We're pretty much a vmware shop except where a service has to run on a physical server (IO cards etc.). The vendors I'm primarily looking at are Lefthand, Equallogic and Netapp, and possibly EMC since Dell can quote on an EMC solution as well as Equallogic. I've not had quotes yet, but so far my instincts are leaning towards Netapp, mainly because of the things I keep hearing about NFS for vmware, as well as the fact they seem to offer a lot of flexibility whereas Lefthand and Equallogic offer iSCSI and, well yeah, they offer iSCSI. Be interested to hear any experiences, especially around vmware and replication between SANs at live/backup sites (not a live failover site but a "this will take a little work but we have a copy of the data that's an hour old" site). -- MIRA Ltd Watling Street, Nuneaton, Warwickshire, CV10 0TU, England Registered in England and Wales No. 402570 VAT Registration GB 114 5409 96 The contents of this e-mail are confidential and are solely for the use of the intended recipient.
