CloudStack and SAN

Hello,

What SAN do you use for your services?

I'm looking for SAN storage for ±500 VM's. Thinking about 15k RPM SAS
disks....

Ofcourse, i'm interested at SolidFire - but not at this time, my budget to
small:)

At the moment i'm using KVM with local disk. Only secondary storage NAS for
backup's of VM's....

I'm interested to stay with KVM, but already looking SAN storage.....

V3700 Lenovo or NetApp FAS2552 is the price which i can spend (±25000eur
with 20 600GB SAS+4SSD for cache)...

What Hypervisor(s) are you planning on using?

We use KVM and we've utliized FC backed SANS (Compellent) over the last few years. At least on KVM, it can get a bit hairy, as you need to use Clustered LVMs, or some other locking in order to support migrations. CLVM on hosts is a total pain and adds a great deal of complexity to the hosts.

Our netgen product is using Ceph. There are plenty of folks out there using NFS, as it's reliable and simple.

- Si
