I noticed that there are 44 of us on the <muug-announce(a)muug.mb.ca> mailing list, but only 10 of us on <roundtable(a)muug.mb.ca>. Those of you not on the "roundtable" list will have missed a couple messages following up on last week's discussion on the upcoming release of Red Hat 7.2. (Official release date is October 22, by the way.) So, if you're not already on the list, I encourage you to subscribe now: http://www.muug.mb.ca/mailman/listinfo/roundtable The "rountable" list is meant to be a forum for follow-ups to topics discussed at the meetings, or for round-table-style discussion on other topics that come up between meetings. Of course, for this to be effective, we need to reach a certain critical mass. So, please subscribe, and stay involved! -- Gilbert E.

MUUG Meeting, Oct 9, 7:30PM -- Consolidated Storage

[Posted to man.unix.general and other news groups] ------ Forwarded Article <9pcq7d$1d$1(a)canopus.cc.umanitoba.ca> ------ From gedetil(a)cs.umanitoba.ca (Gilbert E. Detillieux) The Manitoba UNIX User Group (MUUG) will be holding its next monthly meeting on Tuesday, October 9. The meeting topic for this month is as follows: Consolidated Storage - SAN/NAS or something else? Although most I/T professionals agree on the benefits of consolidating storage, there is some discussion as to whether a Storage Area Network (SAN) or Network Attached Storage (NAS) is the best strategy. The answer is that it depends; but making the choice, especially in the face of new emerging technologies is difficult. This session will explain the concept of Consolidated Storage and its benefits. Then we will explore a few of the technologies available and on the near horizon for implementing a centralized storage infrastructure. Terry Baydock, Technical Sales Specialist with the Storage Systems Group at IBM Canada Ltd., will be our presenter for this session. The group holds its general meetings at 7:30 PM on the second Tuesday of every month from September to June. (There are no meetings in July and August.) Meetings are open to the general public; you don't have to be a MUUG member to attend. Please note our meeting location: IBM Canada's offices in the TD Centre, at the corner of Portage and Main. We gather in the lobby on the main floor - please try to be there by about 7:15 PM. Steve Moffat will then take us up to the meeting room just before the meeting starts at 7:30. Don't be late, or you may not get in. Parking is available either in the parkade behind the TD building, off Albert Street, or in the ground level lot just north of the TD building. Entrance to the lot is from Albert Street, behind the parkade. Either way, parking is a $2 flat rate for the evening. You purchase two $1 tickets from a dispenser, so make sure you've got exact change - a loonie or 4 quarters for each of two tickets.
