Recently bought NetApp DE6600 and I want to use it as JBoD connected to SuperMicro Server. Can this controller be used? NetApp X3149-R6 NVRAM8R Dual Port Pci-E Controller 110-00274+B0 I was wondering what can I do to manage this? Any help will be appreciated.

We are currently playing with ideas for how we want to do backups going forward. Currently we have a server that runs Netvault that does NDMP from the NetApp to tape. However reading the Ontap docs leads me to believe that it is possible for the NetApp to talk directly to a library, no server needed. I'm interested in that, but can't seem to find any information on it. So what I'm wondering is if this is something that can be done or not with our setup? We have a FAS2620 that hooks up to to a 212C disk shelf. All 4 SAS ports on the host are used to do the redundant hookup to the shelf. So would we be able to hook a tape drive up to the shelf and just have it as part of the SAS loop? If so, is there a way to find out what tape libraries are supported? Finally, is this a terrible idea? 🙂

Hello Everyone, Its kind of a stupid question but.. We are planning to replace our old NX5596 with 3132Q-V. There is a detailed document that explains the process and there is risk involved of things going south. We have multiple 40g ports available. I was wondering if it was in any way possible to setup another cluster network using these ports terminating on new switches? Once everything gets cabled and reachable we remove the old cluster switches. This will enable us to avoid the interim ISL between NX5596 and 3132Q-V. Thank you
