Hello Everyone,
I have a D1000 storage array connected to 2 older Ultra 2
workstations via the typical SCSI cables. The heart of the matter is
that I am creating a test bed system that requires a shared storage
array. Specifically the shared storage array needs to have SCSI III with
Persistent Group Reservation ( PGR ).
So far I have not been able to find SCSI III disks that have PGR and
work inside the D1000. Just as a reference the D1000 uses the SCA-2 80
pin connections. Are there SCSI III disks that have PGR that work in a
D1000 storage array? What is the cheapest make/model you could
recommend. Again this is just a storage array that needs to write "hello
world" type files. Currently the D1000 has 2 GB disks so you can imagine
speed, storage, reliability mean nothing at all to us... (rare to hear
that from a sysadmin)
If the D1000 does not or can not support SCSI III PGR what would be
the cheapest Sun or other SCSI LVD ( Low Voltage Differential ) array
that we could use with cheap used disk that would provide the SCSI III
PGR requirement. I do thank anyone and everyone for responding to this
question. I have been searching for days on this question.
Steven B.
