Hi,
to all EQL users: FW 6.0 EPA Version is now RTM and can be downloaded. I suggest to test it fist in a lab, but i also suggest to download all the help and info files. Very intersting new stuff.
Best regards,

what does this have to do in a Veeam forum ?

You should also post the new firmware for emc, netapp, hp and so on !!!

Hi,

because besides of EMC Clariion (which is rather old by now), EQL is *the* most used SAN-Storage among VEEAM users (check out the poll at [POLL] What is your PRODUCTION storage for virtualization?) and also because FW 6.0 is not just a FW update, it changes SO many things among EQL that (in my personal opinion), the forum users should know at first sight. Things like priority flow control, SyncRep and so on could be important for veeam performance, depending on network config, thus, i think it is absolutely d´accord to let the community know.

Best regards,
Joerg
