Just curious if you've had a chance to do your testing yet...
As a side note, Sun's loaner pool has essentially dried up. I attended one of the "Blackbox" presentations that Brian Wilson put on and asked him about it. He told me that Sun's "bean counters" decided it was losing money, so they cut the program. However, he did basically say to feel free to use and abuse the try and buy program because that's what it's there for...
Back on topic, we've been using a lot of 2540's but may have a need for the 6140's soon, so I'm interested in your results as well.

Bought a Sun StorageTek 2540 SAN array a few years ago from a company that was going out of business. When we first set it up, we were able to get all the software (Common Array Manager) and firmware directly from Sun.
We just upgraded the drives, but the array is too large for the firmware. Now... (6 Replies)

scconf_transp_adap_qfe(1M) System Administration Commands scconf_transp_adap_qfe(1M)
NAME
scconf_transp_adap_qfe - configure the qfe transport adapter
DESCRIPTION
Note -
Beginning with the Sun Cluster 3.2 release, Sun Cluster software includes an object-oriented command set. Although Sun Cluster software
still supports the original command set, Sun Cluster procedural documentation uses only the object-oriented command set. For more infor-
mation about the object-oriented command set, see the Intro(1CL) man page.
You can configure qfe Ethernet adapters as cluster transport adapters. These adapters can only be used with transport type dlpi.
The qfe Ethernet adapter connects to a transport switch or to another Ethernet adapter on a different node. In either case, the connection
is made through a transport cable.
When a transport switch is used and the endpoints of the transport cable are configured by using scconf, scinstall, or other tools, you are
asked to specify a port name on the transport switch. You can provide any port name, or accept the default, as long as the name is unique
for the switch.
The default is to set the port name to the node ID hosting the adapter at the other end of the cable.
There are no user configurable properties for cluster transport adapters of this type.
