I have downloaded the Visio set from support and found the draft on this page. I am surprised by product marketing. The set is terrible. Only 2 diagrams neither of which would be first choice for a solution proposal.
I have resorted to the powerpoint deck for images.
I would hope this will be added to considerably very soon.
Thanks for reaching out. There are only two images in the stencil pack, one for the front and one for the back. The front does not even have a bezel with the branding.
I would have expected the following;
· Images of the system front view with the bezel including VXRAIL and VCE, 2D and 3D for stacking more than 1 system
· The VXRAIL logo itself
· The value add-ins product icons like rp4m, VDP and Cloudarray
· Not essential but as 10G (apart from entry hybrid) is required the Brocade VDX6740-B Top of Rack switches would be useful
· There are a lot more images in the customer, technical and partner decks that could be used to get a reference from but the above would be better than what is present IMO
As I said I sourced these from powerpoint decks for a customer solution deck but I was surprised with the visio pack that the front bezel was not there so if you used it was not clear it was VXRAIL at all ☺
I thought the feedback from the field would be useful.
Please also update the rear stencil to include 2 SFPs. Any other optional components on the rear should be included as additional shapes.
Also, these shapes scale down very poorly. The are completely unrecognizable at normal element sizes in a Visio diagram. We can only identify the device when the shape is resized to fill a significant portion of the page.
