In point of fact it only says NO to NFS/CIFS. The original question also asked about SAN as well and I don’t know of any prohibition against that but as others have noted you’d want to make sure the disk array used is backed up to other locations because if the array fails you’d lose both your other data and the catalog you need to restore that data.

With all the drama going on around our catalog size and the new Isilon, I’m beginning to wonder if we’ll out grow out current master servers local disk soon. I’ll be digging through Symantec PDFs, but thought I would throw it out here for you all as well. My obvious concerns are I/O. In our environment I would say we usually have no more than 30 active jobs (including children) running at a time. Our average is probably 10 or less, with bursts of 30. -- Nate Sanders Sr. System Administrator Digital Motorworks, Inc (512) 692 - 1038<tel:%28512%29%20692%20-%201038> ________________________________ This message and any attachments are intended only for the use of the addressee and may contain information that is privileged and confidential.
