translation is done at router level, so synology will allways report its own ip address. Only possible way I see, is to configure some kind of virtual server on your router if it allows you to do that NetApp Certified NCDA/NCIE-SAN

just wondering,what kind of data are you backing up ? Small files , big files ? I would test by linking the Mac and the icy box with a cross cable if I were you, this would provide the most optimal situation. What speeds are you obtaining when copying a large file from your mac to the icy box...

nopes, right approach. Just use snapmirror to move volumes, so you keep your snapshots as well.Target volume will have to be just a little bigger in size for snapmirror. It will mean downtime for all your servers indeed, but you should be able to do all the work in 1 big cutover,did it several...

best advice would to ask for a proof of concept. Try before you buy. This way you will see the impact on the performance. And be sure to make a good test plan, so you can clearly compare the performance results with your existing cx3. Make the tests relevant to the load of your production...

Taking into account it is "only" a DR site, I would go for the additional ports on existing switches. The 5300 are already considered as quite high-end switches that can be put as core switches of your SAN (redundant fans,PSU's, and ability to load and apply microcode without application...

No need to add second loop if you don't experience loop saturation. For the copper cables, perhaps have a look on ebay With regards to licenses, you're screwed indeed if you don't get any licenses, as by default nothing is licensed after an clean setup. rgds, R. NetApp Certified NCDA/NCIE-SAN

If you are looking at NetApp stuff, consider the fas2040 series with SAS drives. clustered solution, deduplication, thin provisioning,snapshotting.replication to a DR netapp is possible as well, snapdrive/snapmanager software provides application consistent backups of you SQL DB's...

With a normal raid controller, at boottime, you will see the raid controller initialize itself, you should see the bios blabla on the screen, and usually U need to enter a key combination to enter the RAID's card bios (ctrl+ something (usually ctrl+I) ), or if it is in the regular bios ( if the...

qlogic hba's are very commonly used, and can be put into all server types ( if the bus type matches of course ( pci-x, pci-e,...). With regards to the disk array, you will need to export the luns to the new servers (if you move the hba's, the wwpn's will remain the same normally, so no work...

there is no convention to the naming, you can name the virtual interface as you like, but good practice is to give it a meanful name like vif_nfs or vif_iscsi or sth, so you know for what the interface is mainly used.If you can provide me the serial number of one of the controllers, I can have a...

I'd try my luck on e-bay NetApp Certified NCDA/NCIE-SAN

over which protocol will you be serving storage ? cifs, iscsi or fc ? - if over iscsi or fc, check that the lun type is windows_2008 or windows ( win2003 server ), - igroup type should be windows as well - check if IP is configured redundantly ( multiple links, using a vif ( virtual...

on the commandline of the filer, issue the command options autosupport this will show you a list of the autosupport options as they are configured right now. Then it's a matter to change what you need (e.g. options autosupport.from blabla@domain.com) rgds, R. NetApp Certified NCDA/NCIE-SAN

looks indeed quite promising, but I would ask them to perform a proof of concept in your environment.Make sure the product performs as expected.Make sure you test usermappings, security, performance ( large sequential, smal random IO, how it handles large files ( 2 TB files, or directories with...

a small http server should normally already be present without a license required for that.The license adds more advanced http features.So software install http://blablabla should work rgds, R. NetApp Certified NCDA/NCIE-SAN
