[Linux-cluster] RHEL4 cluster with Dell hardware

[Brad Filipek]

Thanks for the replies, Lon and Ben. I assume your AX100's have the SATA
7.2K RPM drives? If so, what kind of RAID config do you have and how is
the performance? My 15K SCSI drives are great and wouldn't want to take
a performance hit.

We have a two node cluster running with a dell-emc AX100 (current model
is
AX150) and emc's powerpath software.  We have never had any problems
with
the AX100, it has been running seamlessly for over two years.  It was
also
very easy to set up and configure.  It is only available with SATA
drives
however which may not be of interest.
