The following is my understanding or questions about the architecture, or componenets. To provide your advice, please use commands whenver possible
How can I find out what technology am I using, AdvancedDisk or OpenStorage?
If i understand it correctly, each different disk pool is corresponding a volume on DD, then how do I know what volume does this disk pool is matching to?
Is that true that DD appliance has SAN connection to each media servers? and on Linux server, how do I find the DD device?
I know there are a lot of questions here. Appreciate your help. I could not find out myself.
