Network Attached Storage (NAS)

I have joined the NAS group in Sun recently. To be specific, I am in NAS sustaining for StorageTek 5000 NAS OS. The setup time for these NAS boxes are just 15 minutes and you are all set for the file sharing. There are cool features with the NAS OS including,
- 64 bit journaling file system
- NFS/CIFS support
- iSCSI support
- WebAdmin GUI
- RAID support
- File Replication (Mirroring)
- Clustering (for high avaiability)
and much more ... These are really cool for customer's file sharing needs.

In next update, I'll brief about the iSCSI setup on a Solaris 10 server (initiator) with a SCSI device (target) on NAS box that I configured a few days back.
