Ok, great I was just making sure I was heading in the right direction. I would add, one shouldn't use DFS in the scenario of autohome because DFS redirects and/or replicates shares, not servers. If I didn't use autohome and quotas I would have to whip up a policing script so I can send staff members nasty grams for going over their quota.
We have a couple x4500s and are in K12 so we have a few thousand users, with stored profiles, but under two thousand simultaneous accesses at peak usage. My intentions are to play with the bleeding edge now, get many of the students on it soon so we have some preparation for the caveats of the next final. To date we have never had any sort of *real* disaster recovery and candidly I must admit we are not investing in a better fault tolerance system. However, I think we can get good service by analyzing our typical user loads, staff sync and students redirect. Then I'll split the load between the two devices and mirror the file systems. So at least we can resolve a single failure issue under an hour. Does that sound like a step in the right direction? -- This message posted from opensolaris.org _______________________________________________ storage-discuss mailing list [email protected] http://mail.opensolaris.org/mailman/listinfo/storage-discuss
