Hi Guys,
I was invited to ask a couple of question, and what do you know, I have a meeting on Wedn. to meet the SQL/Sharepoint admins to discuss how to design a migration
over to our NTAP controllers. I have in the past participated with design but never for these products so I feel a bit lost, but not too much 😉
I get the drift where one needs to segragage transient data from non-transient data in different volumes and other basic stuff. What I d like to ask, is there a good doco. that explains
1. basic rules with respect to designing this and how to do capacity planning?
2. what protocol or options to protocols have I got? is it CIFS only or can FC work as well? Im not a big fan of CIFS for apps.. its way too chatty.
3. what other info should I get? Should I drill down to read/write patterns and use UDP or TCP or does that even come into play (only applies for CIFS I know).
Thanks,
eric
