12:18:52 -0600 regarding Re: [Imap-uw] NFSv4, anyone?:
Coincidentally, my organization is looking into purchasing a SAN as a
replacement for DASD. The big question is whether to plop an enterprise
level NAS gateway in front of the SAN with NFS or purchase some
implementation of a clustered (read distributed?) file system.
But why do either of these things? At least for mail/IMAP you'd be better
off using the SAN partions as local devices. As I outlined in a previous
mail, that's what we do. Both NFS and clustered file systems add - IMHO
unnecessary - complexity.
