[AusNOG] 10gbit iSCSI SAN's which support active sync across multiply enclosures

[Adam Nock]

Ive not had any experience with SAN's myself at a technical level, but I did attend a session with NetApp a few months back, and their software does have functionality for remote site synchronisation.

Quickly looked at their website, i THINK it was the MetroCluster system, but i might be wrong.

I remember liking that all their gear (bar the poor little SAN at the bottom of the heap) supported all the features they had on offer (via feature licensing of course).
It might mean you can get the small size you want with good DR potential.

Regards
Adam

Subject: [AusNOG] 10gbit iSCSI SAN's which support active sync across multiply enclosures

Hey all sorry for the slightly off topic question, but I’m after some recommendations for a new 10gbit iSCSI SAN which supports which support active sync across multiply enclosures via fibre (So each enclosure can be stored in different physical locations)

I’m looking only for a 2RU to 3RU unit with about 4tb to 10tb of RAID 10 SAS storage.

Needs to support all the standard features ie two controllers / power supplies per enclosure and have enterprise 24/7 local support and lots of iSCSI targets etc.

Any recommendations (specific models / make ) would be great ! (Happy for a storage rep to reach to me out off list)

Kindest Regards
