Just make sure to use a BBU w/WB function on the RAID controller.

VSS will be out next year in Q1.
As far as OSS goes almost every piece of hardware is supported by your product. What i don't want is a SAN with bad performance. So far as GOOD hardware goes, what is a somewhat optimal configuration for hardware when i want to reach GBe (and more) speeds? I can imagine my cellie 300 box with 3x80 maxtor discs just won't make the cut, but i can find all hardware in the hardware compatibility list.

VSS, will this be self-developed VSS or opensource vss, like the iscsitarget vss? http://iscsitarget.sourceforge.net/w...nagementDaemon
I also found talk in 2005 about vss, but that's it: http://osdir.com/ml/iscsi.iscsi-targ.../msg00094.html

My main question is this: Will e-open support vss quaranteed in q1 2008 or not? What are your current developments and/or can you point me (us) to the relevant discussiongroups concerning vss development for the iscsitarget that you use in e-open.

failover/multireplication was talked about in q3 2007, but so far development has taken longer then anticipated, leading to delays, leading to customer uncomfort. Placing VSS into perspective to failover, will or will you not make the cut in Q1?
