SANRAD: "V-Switch 3000" Supports "Sistina GFS" for Linux Operating Environments

GFS Allows Any Server on The SAN to Read And Write Shared Storage Volumes
And Files

(01.12.03) - SANRAD Inc announced that its "V-Switch 3000" supports "Sistina GFS" (Global File System) for Linux operating environments. SANRAD has certified its iSCSI IETF RFC compliant V-Switch 3000 with Sistina GFS for companies requiring Linux server clustering and file sharing within a Storage Area Network (SAN).

Sistina GFS is a global file system that provides SAN-wide server clustering and file sharing. GFS allows any server on the SAN to read and write shared storage volumes and files with any other server on the SAN. SANRAD's V-Switch 3000 is an all-in-one IP-SAN appliance that supports GFS by enabling multiple clustered servers to connect to and access the same storage systems, volumes and files. V-Switch 3000 also provides active/active multi-pathing to support true clustering and non-disruptive provisioning and scaling of storage resources up to 100s of TBs.

"Combining Sistina GFS with our iSCSI SAN solution means companies get the best of both worlds. They get a complete block-based IP-SAN on the lower layer and they get clustering and file sharing on a higher layer," said SANRAD CEO, Uli Gal-Oz. "Our V-Switch gives the customer the freedom to select any old or new SCSI, SCSI/ATA or FC RAID, JBOD or Fabric storage system. Our iSCSI SAN solution is hetero-geneous and supports any operating system that supports iSCSI. The user then layers GFS over iSCSI at the server level. GFS provides file sharing between any enabled server on the SAN and adds high availability with server clustering. By combining the two, the user gets far greater flexibility, diversity and reliability than a single file sharing SAN appliance." (ma)
