I finally got the data migrated to new storage at my organization. The information moved very quickly and went off without a hitch (and minimal yelling/frustration). The one area I found that was not so friendly is the Share Permissions on the destination storage.
Virtually ready to test Windows Storage Server 2008 R2
September 7, 2011 By Leave a Comment
My plans for reviewing/playing around in Windows Storage Server 2008 R2 have been quite up in the air lately, but may finally be coming to fruition, although differently than I originally planned. Since I have installed an EMC Celerra as my organizations primary storage, I thought testing a WSS front end to that system might be appropriate. In a previous post, I was planning to test this in my home lab, but given the considerations I am looking at for my organization, testing there makes loads more sense.
Service Pack 1 is here… for some

How Did Microsoft and Intel Get 1 Million iSCSI IOPS?

Ever since Microsoft and Intel declared that the combination of Windows and Nehalem could deliver over a million iSCSI IOPS, I’ve been curious about just how they did it. What black magic could push that many I/Os over a single Ethernet connection? And what was on the other end? Now Intel has revealed all in a whitepaper, and the results are surprising!
Are Microsoft and EMC beginning a renaissance of geek respect?
