[Chester LUG] ISCSI boxes

[Stuart Burns]

Hi Everyone,

After ramming my little Proliant N36L full of Disks (8 TB total) and using
it as an ISCSI target on Openfiler, the performance when using SW raid is
absolutely appalling. My CPU load is 4.5+ (when running 3 vms with little
traffic)

I suspect the 2 * 1.3 GHz CPUs are just not up to the job.

Therefore, I am wondering, either new box with Openfler or an ISCSI drobo or
similar. Anyone got any recommendations.

Stu
