This place has become so much quieter ever since the HP announcement.

So any more information on the snapshots limit introduced in OS 4.1.0? Thanks.

[chris24]

Not so quiet from my perspective, would appreciate some tumbleweed

The object limit for snapshots on release will be up to 300,000 per pool.

Many thanks,

Chris

Edit: Updated the count.

Is Adobe Flash no longer a requirement with 4.1.0?  I'm liking the new interface. 

Also - I was a bit bummed to see no details on Dedupe for CS series arrays..

[Nick_Dyer]

Dedupe on hybrid was never planned to be in the NimbleOS 4.x release schedule. Expect more information in the coming months on this, it is still on the radar!

The new interface is indeed non-flash based! <rejoice!>

[Valdereth]

Yes - props on the new interface Nimble bros! 

[jstinson105]

I'm very glad to hear dedupe on CS arrays is still a goal. We've been wanting that for a long time.

Also very thankful for a little less flash in my life.
