Hello,
I would like to use open-e DSS in the following manner to use as storage for vmware 2.0 servers, but am not entirely sure it is possible:
* 2 Open-E DSS servers:
* 1 main server running as NFS NAS
* 2nd server doing block based replication (sync) from the first NAS
I'm not positive this can be done, or I need to use file based replication for this - if so, does file based replication work well with vmware virtual servers? These would be a lot of 2GB files that are continously changing and are always open - is there a way for me to sync this to the 2nd open-e server?
I'm not looking for active failovers, just a passive machine replicating the first and which can manually be activated in case of trouble.
Thx for the feedback!
