Reviewed some of the earlier 3 COM FC announcements. Things must be going well for them. It looks like they will quickly move from compatibility with just a few vendors to more and more.

Parts of The earlier announcement.............

As the 3Com StorageConnect Compatibility Program continues to expand, 3Com
has formed solid relationships with several storage industry leaders to speed the
delivery of a few critical SAN applications to end users. These Integration
Alliances with CLARiiON, Legato and MTI will result in high-performance SAN
solutions that address LAN free backup, High Availability RAID and data
consolidation.

3Com has already started outreach to a number of storage equipment vendors and
ISVs to participate in 3Com's StorageConnect Compatibility Program. The first
participants include the CLARiiON Advanced Storage Division of Data General
Corporation, Legato Systems Inc., and MTI Technology Corporation.

For more information on the 3Com StorageConnect Compatibility Program, or to
inquire about becoming a participating vendor, click here. ................

So Storagetek is just further expansion of components that 3COM says will work together? How long will the other BIG dogs wait before
crashing the FC party?

Keeping my ANCR FC seats for awhile.

J, while Storage Tek (therefore Compaq) is a Brocade customer, it is still good news for FC and Ancor. wj
