Hello,

What application do you plan on virtualizing and what storage protocol will you be using?

The NS20 and NS40 Multi-Protocol Storage Platforms are great in VMware however it should be designed from a storage perspective to accommodate the application. EMC has many reference architecture and solution guides that you can use as a blueprint for your environment.

Below are some good links for EMC/VMware Solutions..

vwaware - how is it going with the NS40 and VMware? Key things to know about are iSCSI and NFS configuration specifics (single vmknic for vmkernel IO traffic). There's a great doc posted here:
