Am I right?
I personally like cDOT more than regular 7-mode, if only for the CLI making things so much simpler.
The training and setup for NFS exports (the CORE of Filer heritage) is annoying and complicated. But doable. But needs tweaking and better diagnostics.
Or the training needs to be better.
But it's the future, SVMs and Vol moves across aggregates and such are the way forward in my mind, since they help abstract away the underlying storage better. Now if Netapp would just drop the prices in extra shelves so that it was cheaper to expand them... but we've always wanted that.
