What is the world of SAN on FreeBSD like ? Does it exist at all ? More specifically, are there _any_ iSCSI drivers in existence for FreeBSD ? If so, how exactly does it work in terms of reallocating storage ? If I have a large iSCSI disk array, and I have a fbsd server that suddenly needs more space, how do I expand the partitions already in use ? Wouldn't I need to unmount the existing partition and resize it on the array and then remount it ? Or do people just keep adding more and more discreet partitions from the array as time goes on, ending up with a fbsd server with serveral mounted filesystems that were needed over time ? thanks. __________________________________ Do you Yahoo!?
