Hi

Is it possible to manage an Xserve RAID from a windows 2008 server?

Using fibre I can see raid arrays on an Xserve RAID but I can’t see the individual drives to create a raid array.

Hope this makes sense.

Thanks

It isn't clear from the page, but the Xserve RAID Admin Tools is a Java app that works on Windows and Linux (as well as Mac).

Windows Server 2008 now comes with Storage Manager for SAN's is it possible to use this with an Apple Xserve RAID?

Thanks

No, just the Java app that Aaron mentioned.

check out alienraid.org; supporting Apple Xserve RAID storage systems in non-Apple environments.
