Hello!

This is the feature request thread.

PLEASE add your own suggestions! And comment on features you'd like to see.

[tjk]

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 volume to a remote location for disaster recovery purposes. Datacore i$ pretty good at thi$ today.

thin provisioning for iscsi and nas volumes.

dedupe, all storage vendors are racing to get this feature added to their product if it doesn't exist today.

nas failover as mentioned above.

I'd like to see a clustering approach like Equallogic and lefthand, and yes, my customers are willing to pay for it so I'm willing to pay for it.

I'm very impressed with the built in backup features!

How about a backup browser that allows you to catalog the backups between two dates then display the backed up shares/folders/files in a tree object, much like the object used to set ACLs and permissions on files elsewhere in Open-e.

Aditionally, incrementally backed up files since the last full backup could be highlighted in a different colour.

Best regards

Also the ability to override the backup type, when specifying the schedule e.g. run incremental Mon-Friday, but run as a full backup on Sunday.

Also, being able to set an address range of "allowed IP's" rather than single IP's would be useful (e.g. 192.168.1.0/24).

Ability to bind the webinterface to a NIC other than the NAS traffic NIC. For example iSCSI traffic is handled by a NIC connected to a storage LAN while management is handled by a NIC connected to the normal LAN.

I would like to have power saving options like windows 2008 R2 server has (CPU throttling, Core parking, ...).
