The Atlanta OpenSolaris User Group will have its August meeting on 
Tuesday, August 11 at the offices of Sun Microsystems, 3655 North Point 
Parkway, Alpharetta, GA.

The topic for this meeting is COMSTAR, the Common Multiprotocol SCSI 
Target framework within OpenSolaris.  COMSTAR allows an OpenSolaris host 
to present storage targets via a variety of protocols: FC, iSCSI, FCoE, 
SAS, and eventually others.  This allows the powerful tools such as ZFS 
and DTrace within OpenSolaris to be used to provide an even more capable 
storage platform.  COMSTAR is one of the key enabling technologies for 
the Sun Storage 7000 family of OpenStorage products.  Come hear about 
what COMSTAR is, how it works, how it can be put together, and see demos 
of COMSTAR at work.

With this August meeting, two changes are coming for ATLOSUG.  First, we 
are returning to a monthly schedule of meetings.  Secondly, we are 
beginning an experiment with venues.  For the last year or so, we have 
been the beneficiaries of Matrix Resources sharing their facility with 
us.  We plan to continue to meet at Matrix, but to rotate between the 
Sun office in Alpharetta, Matrix near Perimeter, and a potential new 
location in Midtown.
