I was asked to look into feasibility for setting up a Linux (or *bsd) based SAN. I know there have been some kernel mods for this kind of stuff, but I don't know their current status, and quick googles show something called netMD at a conference in ottawa, but no website for it.  I used to work at the Utech Center near campus, and I think the people at Sistina were doing something like this.

Because of various development environments, I need the SAN to be reachable from anything (meaning Windoze, AIX, Solaris or other Linux boxen).  I am not very versant in vfs, lvm, etc., but I have the time to deal with a manual.

Any comments on what will/won't work, or suggestions on sites/mailing lists for linux SANs?

Thanks,

Brent Friedman
