Should be immediate but maybe both need to be restarted. We are trying to work with VMware but as you know this will take some time (they are a big company). So allot of testing will be on users and our engineers. Thanks for helping! I also want to move all VMware postings to the VMware section of the Forum. So I may move this later to that section incase you need to find it.
O.k. a result i will see tomorrow after the next backup of my system. During backup and after the backup when ARCserve updates his database i got the most errors.
At the support they told me aready that you are working on a VMware certification, when you get this, this will be great! Then we can use it at our customers. This is only a test enviroment, so a certification is not important...
I haven't tried using the VMWare iSCSI software initiator but we are having very good luck using the iSCSI HBA's from QLogic in the VMWare host systems.
About this i had thought already but didn't made it because:
- I have a Dual Xeon Quad CPU System. Even if the softare Initiator uses one whole CPU i have 7 remaining.
- I think Jumbo Frames don't speed up my system, because the access to the VMFS is most random access.
I will think about it when i have some money for this...
