Storage Networking , Part 1 eBook: A storage network is any network that's designed to transport block-level storage protocols. But understanding the ins and outs of networked storage takes you deep into several of protocols. This guide covers SANs, Fibre Channels, Disk Arrays, Fabric, and IP Storage.
»Storage Networking 2, Configuration and Planning eBook: Picking up where Part 1 left off, Part 2 of our look at storage networking examines configurations for SAN-attached servers and disk arrays, and also includes a look at the future of IP storage.
»Storage Management Costs in the Enterprise: A Comparison of Mid-Range Array Solutions Whitepaper:
Many factors contribute to the ownership cost for enterprise storage. These include (but are not limited to): physical capacity relative to physical space requirements, performance capacity for data transfer and system reaction time, software maintenance and updates, expandability and flexibility, and much more.
»Storage Is Changing Fast Be Ready or Be Left Behind PDF: The storage landscape is headed for dramatic change, thanks to new technologies like Fibre Channel over Ethernet (FCoE), pNFS, object-based storage and SAS that will affect everything from NAS and SANs to disk drives.

IBM Engineers Join the Samba Team

A pair of IBM developers have joined the Samba team. Jeremy Allison explains:
Note this doesn't mean IBM is giving us money or anything.
What it really means is that tridge and I have given these guys
CVS access to the main source code (which is all being on the
Team really means :-). This means a couple of IBM engineers have
the same access rights as the Team members from SGI, HP, Veritas
and others :-).
Jim and Steve work in the Linux Technology Center at IBM
and have been actively involved in the development and testing of Samba
for a long time. We are delighted to have them in the team!
They've already committed some new code to add a "net use" utility
to allow UNIX command line client control to OS/2 and Windows NT/2000
servers.
