VMware 5 is coming out later this year, we have an MSA 2012i G1 (P2000 G1) SAN.
I know it is possible to upgrade an MSA 2012i to a P2000 G3 controller.
My questions are:
1) Is this worth doing?? All I know about the new controllers is that HP includes some kind of snapshot technology and that the new controllers with current firmware support VAAI.
2) What benefit(s) would I get from having VAAI and more current controller hardware/software?? All I know is that VAAI makes storage usage more efficient and there's something to do with more or better multi-pathing.
Thank you, Tom
