Another week brings more VMware Reference Architectures for tier 1 apps on VMware (links to powerlink below). The Validation Test Repots contain all the performance and scaling data. You can always get the full list of solutions collateral on the proven solutions section of powerlink. As always – if you’re having trouble getting to them, let me know (post a comment) – I read them all, and will get you what you’re looking for (sometimes takes a little while)

Hi,
Signed up for a indirect customer account, which takes 2 days to process - so will call back in a couple of days!

I'm seeing a good bit of the latest reference architectures using the Celerra backend with iSCSI and NFS instead of just the Clariion with Fiberchannel. Are there any numbers that show these workloads work well using these protocols? Seems my Powerlink account can not access the test reports, so I can't verify if my question is answered there.
