Does XSAN work with other HW SAN products

Will XSAN work with SANs other than XRAID? I am investigating building an XSAN environment with a Xiotech SAN, a Cisco fabric and XSAN.

Xserve   Mac OS X (10.3.9)   two Fibre Channel Cards

Hi James,
well yes. I have Xsan working with either Xserve RAID and some other FC-enabled RAID systmes. In my case I hooked up two StoreNext FC-RAIDs to our existing Xsan and they worked quite well.
The only problem I came across was, that in the beginning the PM G5 clients were only able to write to the new SAN volume but they couldn't read properly from it when the file size exceeeded 512 MB. Interestingly the PM G4s did not show this behaviour they worked right away with the new hardware.
My guess would be, that it has something to do with the new PCIe FC-cards that you need in the newer G5s.
Anyway, I solved this by reducing the stripe size for the storage pool from 256 to 64 blocks resulting in 256 KB stripes.
From thay change on everythign worked flawlessly and I could not even notice for any speed bumps.
Cheers,
Stephan

    Does iChat work with other users that are on other types of smartphones?  or only Mac iPhones and iMac Mail, Contacts, etc?

    Hi,
    The Messages Beta will Send iMessage to iPhones (Messages replaces iChat)
    iChat can SMS to phones
    It needs the computer to be listed as if it in the United States and contacting a Phone that is on a Carrier in the United States that is accepting SMS forwarding from AIM
    You list the Buddy as AIM and then +plus their number as in +123456789
    The computer can be made to "think" it is in the United States in System Preferences > International (or Text a Language in Lion) then Formats tab.
    The Phone has to be a US phone with all the trimmings about AIM's SMS forwarding.

  • Elements working with Other Slide Show Products

    We've had some debates here about slide show products other than the function within Elements. Personally I opted for Proshow Gold, which I've been very pleased with.
    However, it lacks in one aspect and that's locating the files you want to put into a show. That's because I rely on the E3 Organiser to make sense of the thousands of folders and meaningless filenames I have. Proshow has an Explorer like interface which means you need to know where the image is actually stored on your hard drive.
    So, naturally I thought I'd see if I could get Proshow to work along side the E3 Organiser.....and it does!!!
    If you open both programs you can just select images in the Organiser Window an drag them into Proshow. So now I can create a Collection of the images I want in E3 and just drag the whole lot into Proshow.
    It also works with Photostory 3 so may there are others that will work as well.
    It did trip up once. An image got put into Proshow that wasn't one I'd selected but had the same name. It might have been part of a version set...I haven't figured that out yet.
    Colin

    Folks....
    Back playing again....:-)
    If you drop the images from the Elements Collection into the Proshow Light Box it does retain the order in which they appear in the Collection, albeit reversed, irrespective of date.
    If you drop them into the Slide Show image collection bar at the bottom of the Proshow window then the order sometimes gets a little scrambled.
    I'll disagree with Grant about ordering them in Organiser v Proshow. I find E3 Organiser easier to use. So I create a collection of images for the slideshow from the various folders I want, order them in the collection, select all and drag and drop.

  • Does it work with other O.S. like linux and android? Thanks

    I want to know if the AirPort works with linux and android.
    Thanks

    Yes it's working. I'm using Time Capsule which is basically the same like AirPort extream from network point of view.
    Except of several apple devices I'm connecting to AirPort wifi with android phone (HTC Desire) and linux laptop. Both are working without any problem.
    AirPort is a good choice.

  • My camera works with the photobooth and with skype but does not work with online applications such as "lolcam from facebook" or "faceonthehole" application. Please help

    My camera works with the photobooth and with skype but does not work with other applications like the "lolcam" from facebook or the " faceonthe hole" application. Can anyone help?

    There was a issue with school computers being used to spy on kids in their bedrooms, Mac's were involved.
    So Apple most likely tightened the API's to only select, trustworthy companies as not to abuse the web cam access priviledge.
    If you want to use a web cam with these other programs and services, you'll likely have to buy a third party USB one, so you can manually disconnect it.
    There isn't a way to physcially disconnect the built in web cam on Mac's without busting open the machine.

  • Better privecy does not work with windows vista home prem. what other program removes LSO'S AND HOW can I stop trackers?

    Question
    better privacy does not work with windows vista home prem. what other program removes LSO'S AND HOW can I stop trackers? edit
    Details

    As a temporary workaround, I believe this Adobe management page allows you to clear your "Flash cookies": [http://www.macromedia.com/support/documentation/en/flashplayer/help/settings_manager07.html Adobe - Flash Player : Settings Manager - Website Storage Settings panel] (hosted on macromedia.com -- Macromedia was the original developer of Flash).
    Regarding the script error, if I'm reading the script correctly, it is related to accessing your Flash cookies directory. It seems the publisher's support forum is not currently available for searching, but that might be a good next step.
    In the meantime, could you check whether the script has the correct location for your Flash cookies directory? If you can't access Tool > BetterPrivacy, you could check here:
    (1) In a new tab, type or paste '''about:config''' in the address bar and press Enter. Click the button promising to be careful.
    (2) In the filter box, type or paste '''bpr''' and pause while the list is filtered
    (3) There should be a bolded setting named '''extensions.bprivacy.DataDir''' which looks approximately like the following:
    C:\Users\''yourWindowsUsername''\AppData\Roaming\Macromedia
    Do you have a similar value? If you paste the path used by BetterPrivacy into a Windows Explorer window, does it open? Also, click a couple levels in the folder, can you see:
    Flash Player \ #SharedObjects
    If the value is wrong, right-click the wrong value and choose Reset. BetterPrivacy should update the value the next time you try to access it.
    If the value is blank, you could try inserting a sensible value and see whether that helps.
    Any luck?

  • Does the unlocked iphone 4 works with other networks besides at

    does unlocked iphone 4 works with other network besides at&t like verizon, sprint, and t-mobile ?

    An officially unlocked iphone 4 will work with other GSM networks.  The ONLY major GSM network in the U.S is T-Mobile ( who are being purchased by AT&T). Currently with T-Mobile you will not get 3G service  or visual voicemail with the iphone.

  • Does Air Express Work with other brand Routers?

    I just got an Airport Express. I can't seem to get it to work with my Linksys router. Are the supposed to work with other brands, or only Apple?

    Since you now have two 802.11n AirPorts, you will want to take advantage of the "extend a network" feature this version offers instead of the 802.11g WDS.
    Here's the basic setup to extend the 802.11n AirPort Extreme Base Station (AEBSn) with the AXn ...
    o If practical, place the base stations in near proximity to each other during the setup phase. Once done, move them to their desired locations.
    o Open AirPort Utility and select the base station that will connect to the Internet.
    o Choose Manual Setup from the Base Station menu, or double-click the base station to open the configuration in a separate window. Enter the base station password if necessary.
    o Click AirPort in the toolbar, and then click Wireless.
    o Choose “Create a wireless network” from the Wireless Mode pop-up menu, and then select the “Allow this network to be extended” checkbox.
    o Next, select the base station that will extend this network, and choose Manual Setup from the Base Station menu, or double-click the base station to open its configuration in a separate window. Enter the base station password if necessary.
    o Choose “Extend a wireless network” from the Wireless Mode pop-up menu, and then choose the network you want to extend from the Network Name pop-up menu.
    o Enter the base station network and base station password is necessary.
    o Click Update to update the base station with new network settings.

  • I bought this iPhone from Apple Retail Store for the full amount, but  it does not work with my SIM card only works with AT&T

    Hello,
    I have an iPhone 4S 32Gb White AT&T, product part No. MC921LL/A, Serial No. C39GMLPWDTDC
    I bought this iPhone from Apple Retail Store (from Fifth Avenue, NY) for the full amount. Now it does not work with my SIM card only works with AT&T. I restored the phone several times, but I have not received "Congratulations your iPhone has been unlocked". Please activate my iPhone to work with different SIM cards
    Thanks,
    Best Wishes

    When did you buy it?
    Apple did not begin selling an unlocked version of the iPhone 4S in the US until 11/11/11. I believe it went on sale only through the online store at that time. I'm not sure if it's available at retail yet.
    What you purchased was a phone without a contract commitment. It is still locked to AT&T. AT&T will NOT unlock iPhones for any reason.  Return it and get your money back, then use that to purchase an unlocked phone.

  • Lightroom 4 Does not Work with plugins

    I installed my Lightroom 4 upgrade yesterday and I like the changes. However, the new program does not work with any plugin including Elements, NIK software and others. Adobe should not have released the full program until they had ensured that all will work.
    I have a MAC OS Lion. I went to the NIK homepages and followed their instructions to uninstall all prior versions and download the latest version of their software to install. I followed these directions and nothing happened. So I tried Adobe's own plugin, Elements 9, and that too did not work. Then I tried a few others I have from OnOne and other developers, but nothing works.
    Then I called Adobe where a recording told me they are very busy with complaints about Lightroom 4 and hung up. Then I tried to get a tech rep to chat with me, but got the same results as I had gotten with my call.
    Why does Adobe sell a product that fails such a basic issue? Why did they not work it out with the Beta edition before selling the progrm? I understand why Beta programs often have trouble, that's why they are Beta, but I do not understand why Adobe would sell a flawed product and then prevent their customers from getting tech help.
    Ed

    Actually, the LR4 beta worked fine with respect to this issue.  It wasn't until the full version was released that some people started experiencing the problem of being unable to access the external editors and plugins from LR.
    The problem is being worked on, according to a reply on the feedback forum:

  • Norton 360 premier is not compatible and the identity safe does not work with firefox 4 it worked with earlier version. If there is a solution great otherwise I am going back to IE.

    All my passwords are Norton identity safe protected. If firefox4 does not work with it I am forced to go back to IE. Previous versions had a patch. I only realized the problem after downloading the new update. I wish I never had.

    Symantec need to update their Firefox add-ons so that they are compatible with Firefox 4. They have indicated that for Norton 360 they plan to release an update to Norton 360 to support Firefox 4 in early May - http://us.norton.com/support/kb/web_view.jsp?wv_type=public_web&docurl=20100720113635EN&ln=en_US
    I do not know about the time scale for updates for other Norton products. Pending the update by Symantec, if you want to use the Norton add-ons you will need to downgrade to Firefox 3.6.
    To downgrade to Firefox 3.6 first uninstall Firefox 4, but do not select the option to "Remove my Firefox personal data". If you select that option it will delete your bookmarks, passwords and other user data.
    You can then install the latest version of Firefox 3.6 available from http://www.mozilla.com/en-US/firefox/all-older.html - it will automatically use your current bookmarks, passwords etc.
    To avoid possible problems with downgrading, I recommend going to your profile folder and deleting the following files if they exist - extensions.cache, extensions.rdf, extensions.ini, extensions.sqlite and localstore.rdf. Deleting these files will force Firefox to rebuild the list of installed extensions, checking their compatibility, and reset toolbar customizations.

  • Power Sim  - Does it work with Integrated Planning (IP)

    PowerSim currently promotes itself as being able to perform superior simulations on SEM-BPS. With BI7.0, we have the option of using Integrated Planning (IP) or BW-BPS. Following are my questions:
         1.  Does PowerSim work with IP?
         2.  Does PowerSim work with BW-BPS in addition to SEM-BPS?  Assuming  yes, what are the differences / challenges (if any) using BW-BPS in a BI7.0 as opposed to going against SEM-BPS?
         3.  Does BI7 have any "out of the box" advanced simulation capabilities that are "close" to what PowerSim provides.
         4.  Given SAP's recent strategic investments of Outlook Soft / Pilot / Acorn, the assumption is that these will integrate into the BI platform over the next year +.  Does anybody know if any of these tools provide similar simulation capabilities to PowerSim and/or what SAP's timing is to integrate / ramp-up?
    Thanks

    Hi Richard,
    1) Unlike in previous versions of SEM-BPS. there's no special support for PowerSim in BI-IP. Please check with PowerSim vendor what kind of standard SAP interfaces they support (to read from/write data to BI).
    2) Yes, when it comes to PowerSime BW-BPS is no different to SEM-BPS. You cna use BW-BPS just like SEM-BPS (some limitations are the financial planning functions). For more information please see the BI FAQ at http://service.sap.com/bifaq.
    3) No.
    4) No. PowerSim provides specialized capabilities which are not included in that form in the products listed by you. Please check with PowerSim what capabilities they provide in connection with SAP NetWeaver BI 7.0

  • EPrint does not work with Google Apps for Business (hosted email)

    I have looked up numerous posts, from back into 2011 even, and HP still has not resolved this.
    HP's ePrint does not work with companies using Google Apps for Business (hosted email).
    Our emails come from our domain, but from the servers/DNS of Google, so we wind up getting
    the "550 5.7.1 Command Rehected" error.
    This is a major issue as more and more companies (especially small business owners) are moving away
    from having in-house/Exchange servers, and they are moving toward hosted systems.
    You really need to find a way to stop rejecting emails coming from Google Apps hosted email.
    It's been around 4 years now (looking at previous posts). Why hasn't HP found a resolution to this yet?

    I have brought your issue to the attention of an appropriate team within HP.
    They will likely request information from you in order to look up your case details or product serial number.
    Please look for a private message from an identified HP contact.
    Additionally, keep in mind not to publicly post serial numbers and case details.
