Hey managers and admins,

We are currently looking at getting into the world of SANs with an
initial setup of about 3 terabytes. We want to connect Tru64, linux,
Windows 2000 and Novell boxes.

I have read through some 600 postings in the archives of problems and
information people have shared.

Is there anyone that can offer any fairly recent information (not
already posted) about any pros or cons of any particular brand of SAN
they are using, any gotchas or good feelings etc. I am particularly
interested in info relating to implementation of the SANs, backups
(software and procedures) and ease of use of SAN related management
tools.

I will summarise any responses.

 
Regards, John
