Lower-end SAN products
Do you use any lower-end SAN products (EqualLogic, EMC, LeftHand Networks, Compellent Technologies, etc.) in your setup? If so, what do you use?

EMC Heat summary tool
does anyone know how to take multiple heat summary's from EMC and combine them into one report, or spreadsheet, fairly easily? When you have about 100 hots to review it is very tedious to go through each heat report. EMC CE's I know have used some script to consolidate them...just curious if i have...

Tracking DMX storage allocation
How are you tracking your storage allocations from your DMX to your servers? We began with the Excel-based design workbook that EMC delivers at the end of the installation engagement & that works up to a point. I've written code that loads the info into SQL & does some reporting on it, but is...

Is synchronous replication possible between EMC DMX4 and EMC CLARiiON CX3-80?
I would like to know whether synchronous replication is possible between EMC DMX4 and EMC Clariion Cx3-80 storage systems. I understand MirrorView software replicates only between two Clariion CX models and SAN Copy configured on the Clariion CX3-80 could only do asynchronous replication, but does...

Raid1 vs Raid5 Microsoft exchange data
We are implementing Microsoft Exchange on a EMC DMX3500 DASD Subsystem that has 146GB and 300GBs. Talked to Gartner Group Consultant Bob Passmore and he is strongly recommending RAID 1: his justification is based on the fact that RAID 1 is double the number of disk drives; therefore you cut what...

3Par and EMC problesm
I have a Sun x4100 has two qlogix qle2460 HBAs both connected to a 3Par SAN and a EMC cx700 SAN. When both HBA's are active in non-failover mode we can see the LUNs in /proc/scsi/qla2xxx/3 and 4 - BUT fdisk does not see the devices. If we have the HBAs set in failover mode we only see the LUNs on...

EMC Symetrix DMX- Power Query
I have a EMC Symetrix DMX, which requires three phase power. Unfortunately our site only has single phase power. Is it possible to bypass the three phase PDU and connect directly to the 10A connections on the power strips at the back of the boxes. Will this work?

Bare Metal Restore
Looking for referals/recommendations for software solution to provide bare metal restore to different hardware. Note: SQL in use with medical data. Server is Raid 1, Win 2000 DC Would like to use workstation for bare metal restore in a pinch. Symantec claim to provide this but I'm skeptical.

Access to an EMC SAN

Synchronous Replication and Data inconsistency
Hi, What are the possible scenarios where one could have data inconsistency when using Array based Synchronous Replication. What could be done to prevent it, and has anybody had any real life experiences with these scenarios? Thanks, Steve

iSCSI vs FC SAN
We are trying to determine if there is any impact to MS SQL 2000 servers given either a iSCSI SAN vs Fibre Channel SAN. The majority of the databases are read/query intensive during the day, and write intensive during the overnight job cycle. Currently we have 8 SQL database servers (Windows 2000)...
