Is it possible to configure a VM as a dedicated storage node. the compatibility 
guide indicates that this is supported but i am interested in hearing if anyone 
has done this yet?
   
  I would present the shared tape devices to the fibre card in the esx server. 
at this stage what would i have to do to prepare the drives for use? do i need 
to confugure the tape devices at the esx (linux) level or just make sure that 
the esx server can see them?
   
  Then what next? how do i present the shared tape devices to the VM? 
   
  regards, Mark
