Sorry I've been slow to respond, I am out on vacation this week. We have 7 volumes, 5 NFS for VMware, one CIFS and one for LUNs. These are across two aggr of 33 disks each (DP, 300gig SATA).
200 VMs (NFS), 2 SQL clusters (FC) and home directories for ~1000 users.

May I know how big your aggregates are in terms of spindle count and disk size. We are trying to size our VMWare infrastructure using NFS on a FAS3070 cluster, with two 40-disk aggregates (300GB FC) each. Like you we are running Exchange on iSCSI on these filers now. On the network side, we have separate 3-port multi-vif for iSCSIand NFS traffic.
TIA
