Well, I have 4 Scalar 1000's which hold 116 80G DLT tapes and 4 R250
Netapp Nearstore filers that I do hot backups too. :)
The's machines are POP3/IMAP servers.. we cluster them in 3's.. one
live and two machines that replicate the primary. :)
We do a lot of email at work.. about 3 billion pieces of email a week
pass through the system. Which is why I was hoping someone had seen
this. I've narrowed it down to something in the SUSE 9.2 boot scripts
but got board looking for it. I just have the systems mount this slice
after the OS is booted via a custom script. :)
