Milton,

After I wrote the last message, I noticed that FalconStor has certified TSM
SAN clients with their product, which is used by EMC and other
manufacturers.  I was thinking that it would be more interesting to run the
VTL software on the TSM server rather than add another piece of hardware,
however.

So VTL might be a nice alternative to trying to implement a shared SAN
filesystem (SANergy) just to achieve shared file pools.  I haven't looked at
the price.  Have you?
