Hassle but can be overcome with the quota tree implementation.
You can even dump seperate 'tree's.
True. But distinct separate RAID volumes with their own hot spares would be nice.
- Weedy SCSI performance
How so?
We're living in the age of Wide Ultra SCSI. Maybe a NetApp engineer can comment on whether this would, or would not, make much of a real world performance. I was under the impression that you'd get more TPS...
- Lack of other RAID implementations
Uhm, what else do you want to do?
Straight mirrors....straight concatenating and striping...
As I said earlier: I still love NetApps and I'm asking the world ;-)
