Re: Other storage vendors

I'll add a fourth vote for Active Storage.  We now have 3 master  
chassis and an expansion chassis online in several Xsan volumes at two  
locations.  Their support team is very knowledgeable and friendly.    
When we got our first chassis/expansion chassis pair we had a number  
of issues trying to get things up and running.  The Active guys were  
incredibly responsive and helpful in diagnosing the problem.   
Ultimately turned out to be a specific revision of the Apple/LSI HBAs  
has problems hosting metadata LUNs on the Active equipment.   We have  
quite a mixture of fibre channel hardware, some newer and some dating  
back to Xsan 1.0, so it was interesting to try to nail it down.   Once  
we identified the problem, I rearranged our fibre channel cards and  
everything has been smooth sailing since.
