Re: HBA card? We use it on RedHat and VMWare ESXi. Still junk and not supported by a lot of things. Some hosts had trouble recognizing the array and it took a lot of fenangling to get it to work.
We've migrated nearly everything that was on iSCSI to 4GBps fiber channel now. More expensive but also more mature and robust. |

The only problem was that I had to build out another, more expensive (FC) network - cost is one thing but managing another infrastructure is a bigger issue. -- [BQUOTE=[user=bicker]]Waaaa waaaa waaaa. You just want what you want and don't care to factor in what is right or true. Your perspectives are un-American, and deserve far more ridicule than I'm prepared to pile on them. [/BQUOTE] |
