Using DNS  should work but the master / media servers might pick up on =
the alternate MAC id's presented from VMWARE virtual machines? Virtual =
machines seem to alteranate MAC ID's on a boot basis. Suggest setting VM =
machines to static MAC ID;s?

I've gotten as far as seeing that vmware does present SAN tape drives to =
a
RedHat virtual machine, so at least that much works.

                                                - Bluejay Adametz

We usually see only the things we are looking for -
so much so that we sometimes see them where they are not.
