There is a market (with very expensive products) out there to migrate vendorA <NFS|CIFS> to vendorB <NFS|CIFS>, where vendorA may or may not be the same as vendorB. It would be way cool if OpenSolaris could serve as the OS on such an appliance, but the proposal didn't seem to look like that. -- Mike Gerdts http://mgerdts.blogspot.com/ _______________________________________________ storage-discuss mailing list [email protected] http://mail.opensolaris.org/mailman/listinfo/storage-discuss
