Any experience with FreeNAS - http://www.freenas.org ? Can it be used for Oracle? Over VMware?
Unrelated to use of Oracle, but during a recent series of large conversions, we had need to take several backups of our database - couple of thousand bucks got us some cheapy ATA and USB disks on a PC, whacked in an FreeNAS iso image on CD and voila! A few terabytes of NFS storage...it worked an absolute treat.
