I’ve just been reading through the press release from HDS on their new AMS enhancements. Hu Yoshida has blogged about the new features too (it makes a change to hear something different than another discussion on UVM). There’s now HDP support as well as dense storage trays capable of...

2 Days, 2 Bod Posts
For the second time in two days I find myself drawn to comment on a Storagebod related post.
The subject today is Tony Asaro’s rant on one of StorageBod’s recent posts denegrating virtualisation.
Now let’s get things clear – I like HDS’s implementation of virtualisation....

The SRM Conundrum
Martin (Storagebod) has an interesting post today. Rather than post a long reply, I’ve chosen to steal his thunder and post specifically on the subject – of SRM tools.
Apart from when I worked in the mainframe storage arena, I’ve always struggled with SRM tools. Just for reference,...

Chris Evans: Hermann, thanks for bringing that one up. Is there a specific Fujitsu offering or are you just assuming they have the c...

- BRCD seems to be seeing an uptick today - up 7.6% already - hoping Dell are on the rebound?
- @Storagezilla I didn't think there were any EVA folks any more (natural selection)
- Erm @3parfarley we expect the first SWCSA to be with @hpstorageguy
- @SteveTodd completely! My record was about 5 peas at the same time.

- @Storagezilla so that implies only the old agreement is still in place?
- @Storagezilla 3Par's statement doesn't make sense. The reseller agreement is part of revised Dell proposal which they said unacceptable
