Hello All,
I hope this makes sense, I have two opensolaris machines with a bunch of hard 
disks, one acts as a iSCSI SAN, and the other is identical other than the hard 
disk configuration. The only thing being served are VMWare esxi raw disks, 
which hold either virtual machines or data that the particular virtual machine 
uses, I.E. we have exchange 2007 virtualized and through its iSCSI initiator we 
are mounting two LUNs one for the database and another for the Logs, all on 
different arrays of course. Any how we are then snapshotting this data across 
the SAN network to the other box using snapshot send/recv. In the case the 
other box fails this box can immediatly serve all of the iSCSI LUNs. The 
problem, I don't really know if its a problem...Is when I snapshot a running vm 
will it come up alive in esxi or do I have to accomplish this in a different 
way. These snapshots will then be written to tape with bacula. I hope I am 
posting this in the correct place. 

Thanks, 
Greg
