| Hi, I have an idea born from; We had a need to employ Fare, but they needed enough storage which we didnt have time or money to buy. So we connected those Flares via 10Gb/jumbo to a Smokes framestore via wire. We were able to get ~80fps so happy about that. Each Flare had its own framstore dir on the shared Smokes framestore. At any rate, I would like to take this a step further by building a ZFS based storage hosted by some Centos box running wire. Then the Flames/Flares/Fame Assist would connect to it via wire and have there on directories and all over 40Gb/jumbo to satisfy 4K etc... To move around, a stations will confect to the appropriate dir on the shared storage etc,.. No SAN, no NFS etc just pure wire to access. Has any one already done this? - Brian Technologist... i.e., Purveyor of the ironic" |
