Greetings,
I'm new to SAN products and was looking for a good base SAN configration
for Tru64 (and NT if possible)
Here are my questions:
A) What OS's work best with Tru64 +SAN. (or better yet) What OS's don't
work with Tru64 and Digital's SAN.
B)What is a good starting size for a Tru64 SAN with 4 Tru64 Servers and
about 20 NT servers.
C)What is the Maximum amount of size that you can 'hand out' to a Tru64
Alpha 1200 in a single 'chunk'.
D)Using SAN do you still need a Logical Volume Manager at the OS level
or do you take care of that 'in the san'.
E)Is it possible to move all of the data from one 'drive' to another
larger one in Tru64 using the SAN or does the SAN 'extend' the current
'drive'. How does the filesystem extend itself to accomodate the extra
space? Can ADVFS do this for us using domains and filesets or do we
still need an LVM to shuffle the data around?
If I should be posting these quesions in a SAN list please let me know
and I won't post theses questions here.
