How many times has @storageanarchy avatar chaged today? Barry are you using FAST to auto-migrate between different imges :-P about 11 hours ago from TweetDeck
@SFoskett Clearly not so, but I'll trust you that it was all in gest. You guys with your insecurities trying to tell me you appreciate me about 12 hours ago from TweetDeck in reply to SFoskett
Wow!! Just realised EMC Managed to ship FAST before @StorageNerve got his anticipated and now much delayed new logo up on his site :-D about 12 hours ago from TweetDeck
@BasRaayman not sure about that. BTW how is the new site coming along? - www.basraayman.com about 12 hours ago from TweetDeck in reply to BasRaayman
@SFoskett who needs enemies when you have "mates" like @Knieriemen @StorageNerve @edsai and your good self ;-) about 12 hours ago from TweetDeck in reply to SFoskett
@SFoskett Hmmm hoping I get better press than I did on Infosmack - http://bit.ly/70sliW when I wasnt able to join the call ;-) @Knieriemen about 12 hours ago from TweetDeck in reply to SFoskett
RT @xsigo: Are Cisco and HP steering us to back closed architectures? http://bit.ly/2q604L about 12 hours ago from TweetDeck
RT @dvellante: Floyer piece on virtual io http://bit.ly/4A0Vax #wikibon about 17 hours ago from TweetDeck
Reading around EMC FAST makes me wonder if the likes of IBM XIV are JBOD-like in comparison?? Not that Im sold on FAST though! about 17 hours ago from TweetDeck
@dvellante where do the other 97 units go? power, cooling and other environmentals?? about 18 hours ago from TweetDeck in reply to dvellante
RT @storageanarchy: RT @EMCEducation: Did you get the FAST update? EMC Engineers talk about it next week on webcast http://bit.ly/8mukBe about 18 hours ago from TweetDeck
@bradhedlund @scott_lowe Im playing catch up after kids to bed. Brad, r there any docs that explain how this works and is implemented? 12:20 PM Dec 8th from TweetDeck
RT @unixplayer: @nigelpoulton it is interesting - boiling down the server into it bare minimum - processor and memory (pure compute) <-- YES 9:25 AM Dec 8th from TweetDeck
For those watching on - IOV explained for thse interested - http://bit.ly/7XmaC4 and SR-IOV in particular here - http://bit.ly/63SZFm 9:24 AM Dec 8th from TweetDeck
@unixplayer absolutely! move the IO adapter out of the server to an aggregator = flexible, virtual, stateless, simple, less cable, GREEN! 9:22 AM Dec 8th from TweetDeck in reply to unixplayer
RT @scott_lowe: @bradhedlund I'm sure you'll be confused only until Cisco starts doing it. playful jab ;-) <-- like it! :-D 9:20 AM Dec 8th from TweetDeck
@bradhedlund @scott_lowe @robellison it would be confusing if the PF is in a physical server. Move the PF to an external aggregator 9:18 AM Dec 8th from TweetDeck
@bradhedlund @scott_lowe Brad the value is flexibility, why shackle VFs to a single server? 9:18 AM Dec 8th from TweetDeck
RT @scott_lowe @bradhedlund @robellison Further simplification of infra. A single PF with multiple VFs shared among systems <- agreed 9:16 AM Dec 8th from TweetDeck
@bradhedlund @scott_lowe @robellison Value = have 2 physical CNAs and carve up multiple VFs and present them to 10 servers. 9:12 AM Dec 8th from TweetDeck
