Hmm...I hate to burst your bubble, but NetApps *are* servers with loads of disk. ;) But yes, I agree with your point in general.


Quite right you are, they are servers with gobs of disk ! I guess I should have said NFS appliances.

Well they even run UNIX (or at least they used to...haven't seen a recent one)...just with a nicely-tuned filesystem and very good utilities.

Linux' NFS issues have traditionally centered around interoperability and performance in mixed environments.


    Okay, seems like I should do some googling on this.

If you're primarily a Linux shop, I wouldn't worry too much about it...but if you're running in a mixed environment, just watch your step. I've had lots of issues with this in the past.
