Hello,
I had always wished ESX would manage LUN mirroring just like any other operating system does (The reason is that when you host an application that should NOT stop, you want an easy and automatic failover in case of computer room failure, or storage array failure).
VMware DRP solution looks really heavy to me compared to a windows/linux/HP-UX metro cluster (with a storage volume manager like Veritas).
Then, I realize that NetApp provides a NFS metro cluster that look like a perfect storage solution for higly resilient VMware infrastruture.
My problem is that I don't see anyone talking about this solution. Am I missing something (beside the price)?
Is it as nice as it looks? Has anyone used/setup NFS metro cluster with VMware? Any usefull link/whitepaper?
Thanks for your help,
S
