Douglas,

Brocade seems to be in both camps, and Ancor says they don't want to work exclusively with any one sw vendor, so this is still a curious announcement.

<<STK is combating EMC by aligning with LGTO. Ideally, you would want all your stuff to work with LGTO, Veritas, Cheyenne et. al. and be as pervasive as SCSI.>>

I would sure think so, however EMC may not be as interested in pervasive as they are in competitive advantage [pervasive EMC].

This is going to be interesting.

<<But EMC's competitors complain that the company's reluctance to cooperate on standards actually is slowing down efforts to make any storage solution universal.

EMC works closely with major system vendors to ensure interoperability between its Symmetrix storage device and most Unix and Windows NT servers.

But working with competing storage vendors is another story.

For example, EMC last week announced Volume Logix, software that lets Symmetrix administrators better control access to specific data for each server on the network. The company has no plans to make the software compatible with other disk array manufacturers.

Running Volume Logix on other storage systems "just isn't going to happen," said EMC CEO Michael Ruettgers.>>
