I did a side-by-side comparison of NFS versus iscsi... The storage is solaris ZFS, and the hypervisor is ESXi. I could not detect any performance difference between the two, but I could think up all sorts of ways that NFS was better, in terms of snapshotting, backups, cloning, ease of setup, etc. Long story short, for ESXi purposes, I could not find one single advantage in favor of iscsi. _______________________________________________ Tech mailing list Tech@lists.lopsa.org http://lists.lopsa.org/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/tech This list provided by the League of Professional System Administrators http://lopsa.org/
