Running Linux MySQL servers on NetApp filers

Hi All,

I'm curious to to know if there are people around running mysql databases on linux servers and netapp filers? Would it be interesting / useful to create a separate sub-forum to share knowledge, ask questions?

For instance in my case, we run mysql instances in SAN environment (iSCSI / FC), but it would of interest to learn about folk's NFS + mysql experience etc.

Cheers,

Vladimir

Hi Christine,

I studied this document and it's definitely of use. What I'm really after now is to talk to people about their experience and share pain / success stories 😃
