Update: A1000 SAN?

2007-12-24 19:36:00

Hello Managers,

I want to update, correct, and give more information on what I have, and
what/where I want to get to. I also want to clear up the fact that I do like
the A1000/D1000 solution, but rather think that the solutions providers
misguided the scalabilities of our particular architecture.

Having said that, this is what I have:

2xE3500 cluster attached to one D3000 to access 4xA1000 (20x18Gbytes HD)
Oracle Cluster
2xE3500 cluster attached to one D3000 to access 4xA1000 (20x18Gbytes HD)
Email Cluster

One D3000 with 4XA1000 (20x18Gbytes HD) with 4 Sun server connected to it.

All this with Raid Manager and Veritas at the SW lever for VM and VFS.

As you can see, I only have 80 HD slots used up out of the 144 HD slots
available, and I think that we all can agree that there is always the need
for more storage space.

Here is what I would like to be able to do:

Be able to use the current HW to increase our storage capacity and
distribute them to other Sun HW, mostly low profile Netra's and ExxR class
servers which have low storage expansion.

I think that If I could find a SCSI/FCAL solution out there, then I could
think of T3's when I use up the current HD slots.

TIA

Subject: A1000 SAN?

Hello Managers,

I have the daunting task of "attempting" to reuse the residuals of a bad
purchasing decision of Sun storage A1000/D1000.
I would like to know if there are any solutions out there for this storage
that could "if possible" could create a SAN with and be able, in the near
future, and some T3s to this SAN.

I will Summ. up with any information that I receive.

TIA

Jose M.
