Last week I deployed a NetApp V3140 HA pair with SAS DS4243 and FC DS14 MK4 shelves, a total usable space of 70TB.
This kit was uplifted from our primary DC and relocated and rebuit in our secondary DC.
A whole day to rack and stack and cable, the next day to update all the firmware and OnTap software.
It is connected to redundant Fibre Channel Brocade fabric switches.
We are utilising the NetApp for all our non-production VMware environment (dev/test/int/uat).
I have attached the cabling diagram if anyone interested…
