EMC partner here. I can answer pretty much any question about the CX3 line and probably the CX4.

I do mostly Clariion and VMware installs.

Has anyone played with the new Brocade 8GB stuff, or FCoE?

Do you know what would be awesome? A good, clear MS iSCSI Initatior MPIO configuration guide for setting up both HA and path aggregation. I'm embarrassed to admit that I don't understand how to clearly establish MPIO between multipule ports between A W2k8 box and a iSCSI SAN like Openfiler. It seems like MS will only want to use only one NIC regardless of how many are installed (in my case, the iSCSI lan is connected to a intel 1000 PL PCIe dual port NIC.

Why would you use a software Initiator? iSCSI cards aren't too expensive.

In any event, yes, MS is pretty bleak with their iSCSI documentation.
