Craig Siebels on Dec 9 1997 3:29AM EST Craig, <<<Just doing some major brainstorming here after reading the Brocade/Sequent press release and was wondering if you knew how difficult it would be to replace the Brocade switch with an Ancor MKII?>>> I think this would a plug and play situation. <<<The point would be for Ancor to demonstrate the superiority of its switch(due to the latency advantage of 500ms vs 2000ms in the class 3 mode). If this swapout is at all possible I wonder if it might not be a good idea for Ancor to do this and then issue a press release of its own detailing the results. >>> The problem is they would not be able to find a large population of Sequent NUMA-Q servers and are already connected to Brocade switches and are willing to do the test to benefit Ancor.
