Greetings admins:

We are poised to connect a GS60E AlphaServer to an EMC Clariion CX600, with
McData switches (w/EMC tag on them), and dual HP FCA2354 2Gb HBAs installed
in the GS60E.

We're planning on running Tru64 5.1B on it and I've got a couple of
questions, which I'm also checking out with HP & EMC:

1. Is anyone else using Clariions and how have they been for you?
2. Can you use a Clariion device for a root disk? Any special
considerations?
3. Do you make use of failover/load balancing (assuming two fabrics)
and is that a Tru64 controlled feature or an EMC product?

Thanks (as always) for any feedback and suggestions.
