nfs general question
hi everyone,

Re: nfs general question
Because everyone is using fibre channel for mass storage only (SCSI protocol) and nobody is using it as IP network (despite it is specified by standard).
Hope this helps!
Regards
Torsten.

Re: nfs general question
IP over fibre channel is specified in the standards, but I'm not aware of an implementation (unlike FC over IP/ethernet, which is available).
Hope this helps!

Torsten.
