RE: What is the difference between Flash storage and a Flash Storage system like the V9000/V7000

In my experience the role swap time is minimal. I've done it in just a
couple of minutes.
What really takes a while is quiescing the system to get ready for it.
Now, some on this list take a more thermonuclear approach in quiescing
their systems. Apparently it works for them.

I've used Mimix. I've since migrated to Quick-EDD.
The major problem I had with Mimix was how long it took them to get new
features added, like RCAC, temporal tables, etc.
Enough people told them goodbye that I think they've seen the error of
their ways.

I had a tough time trying to get my head around how you do upgrades with
the whole SAN and PowerHA stuff.
Someone explained it on this list but since that doesn't seem to be in our
foreseeable future I've let it slide.
