From: Chris Shenton Date: 28 Feb 2000 19:19:50 -0500 Message-ID: Lines: 12 User-Agent: Gnus/5.0803 (Gnus v5.8.3) Emacs/20.4 MIME-Version: 1.0 Content-Type: text/plain; charset=us-ascii Sender: owner-freebsd-hardware@FreeBSD.ORG Precedence: bulk X-Loop: FreeBSD.org We're looking into a farm of servers feeding off a SAN, connected by FibreChannel. We've got hands-on with Solaris in this environment, but are looking to see whether FreeBSD can be pressed into service to keep the cost of the farm down. I've got solid FreeBSD experience in ISP environments and like it. I did a search on the archives (thanks!) and it seems that some FibreChannel cards are supported but I didn't find anything explicit in 3.4-STABLE's uberkernel file LINT. I'm specifically looking for FC connected SANs here, if that helps narrow the question. Any pointers, products, etc? Thanks.
