They don't support NFS failover yet, I think Todd mentioned NAS failover was planned for the future, just not sure when that is.
Good luck trying to find NAS/NFS failover, at least something...

They don't report Intel 10Ge stats either, nothing over 300mbs, and I've seen this on 4xGE bonded in RR mode, nothing over 300mbs, however I know they are doing over 2gbs+ by graphing the switch...
ability to do (a)sync replication from 1 to many, however this may be difficult due to the use of drbd.
example:
mirror a volume locally for local failover (nas or iscsi), and than mirror that...
Anyone using DSS 6 with Windows 2003 Clustering and running MSSQL 2005 Enterprise in a cluster P/P on top of the 2003 cluster?
Are you doing so with iSCSI or RDM or what?
How is it working out...
Todd,
In async replication mode, how often does it check to see if it needs to send data to the replicated volume?
I setup an async mirror between 2 volumes, and I'm seeing some odd behavior,...
Yes, it should as long as your nics support MDI/MDI-X. We do this with newer SuperMicro and Dell servers without a problem.
Tom
Yikes, Todd, didn't mean to upset you, just surprised it didn't show up.
So you are saying each DSS install uses multiple download locations to grab updates from?
Are there any patches yet for...
Yea, surprised you didn't run into this on your test setup, I've seen this many times so far testing 6.0...
I have the same screen caps if needed, hopefully not though.
Tom
Todd, yea it'll download it, however go issue a reboot and watch your console, says the update is not for this version and requires 3513/3518.
I am running:
6.0up04.8101.3530 64bit
and when...
Todd,
With release dss6, when you go to maintenance and tell it to download/check for updates, it downloads an update that doesn't work on dss6, says it is for 3513/3518 only and doesn't boot back...
LUN0 and LUN1 still not working with latest DSS 6 and Xenserver 5.5. Any updates Todd?
Tom
Todd, 3513 isn't on the support web site for download - how can we obtain it?
Also, is there a documented process to update a pair of DSS systems running in failover mode?
Thanks,
Tom
Todd, is 3513 out or in beta/qa still?
Tom
We're still waiting for support for assistance, was hoping maybe someone on the forums knows how to fix this...
We have two identical sans, we replaced a dual port GE card with a dual port 10ge...
Todd,
Thanks! No link provided, can you send it to me?
Basically from my testing/researching last night, I'm not sure DSS will support this for Xen or VMWare (btw Virtual Iron is based on Xen...
Does the DSS support iscsi multipathing from xen servers, and if so, will this work in failover with 2xdss servers?
Each Xen node has 2xGE dedicated to iSCSI and the DSS servers each have 6xGE for...
ALB is showing up again in the Atlanta/3511 release, does this mean it is stable and production ready?
Tom
Todd,
Thanks, thought so.
Just so I am 100% clear, stopping the failover services also stops the VIP and means everything has to be taken down (complete outage) while doing this, or am I...
Hello,
With iSCSI failover running just fine, I cannot find a way to go back and add more LVs/LUNS without having to turn everything off, impacting the Xen nodes, adding the new LVs/LUNS, and then...
No feedback on the best setup for best IOPS? :(
tom
Count me and my team in!

What do you all recommend for the best performance out of the following hardware:
4u Supermicro, 16gb ram, dual quad-core 5310's, 24x1TB WD RE3 SATA 7200 rpm hdd's, 3ware 9650SE 24port SATA RAID...
SeanLeyne,
What raid card are you using with the Intel 2u storage system? You using SATA or SAS hdd's? How is the performance?
Tom
Folks,
We are looking at using DSS for Xenserver and VMWare for a few customer deployments we having coming up. They will be deployed in replication/HA pairs.
I am looking for feedback on what...
Hello Paul,
We are seeing the same sort of issues on ESX 3.0.2, Dell host nodes with qlogic 2GB FC cards, connected to Qlogic FC switches.
Our issue is that the DSS server will not go into...
