Replacing EqualLogic PS6100 with SCV2020 a viable option ?
Hi
How does the scv2020 compare the the EqualLogic Ps6100 series in terms of features / performance ?
Most of our EqualLogic arrays go out of maintenance next year and it's got me thinking about other options.
We currently run the kvm hypervisor with raw iscsi Luns to provide the storage to each vm and I can see us reaching the 1024 connection limit in a pool at some point if we carry on working this way.
We also replicate the volumes.
Does the SCV2020 support one to many replication or is it just peer to peer like EqualLogic ?
Thanks

I am curious why not upgrade to PS6210 or PS6600 series?
The newer arrays are way faster. We have saw throughput increase 3 times from PS6100.

Hi Thanks for the reply
Do you happen to know the maximum number of supported ISCSI connections / replicas on the SC series of arrays ?
I have received a quote from Dell to extend support on the arrays for an additional 2 years but it is almost 40% of the initial purchase price and that included 5 years support.
The SC series 2000 series seems really cheap but I found a video that this series doesn't perform replication with Equalloigc, is this not the case ?
Only having 1gb /dual 1gb with flexport for replication on the SCV2000 might also be a deal breaker too possibly.
