Yes, that's true, but I don't believe you mentioned single NIC implementations in your original statement. Just seeking clarification to help others :-) I think it's worth clarifying that iSCSI and VLANs is okay as long as people appreciate you will require seperate interfaces to get best performance. _______________________________________________ zfs-discuss mailing list zfs-discuss@opensolaris.org http://mail.opensolaris.org/mailman/listinfo/zfs-discuss
