Apple Xsan 1.4 - Manual (Page 12)

12 Preface About This Book
Chapter 7 lists solutions to common problems you might encounter.
Appendix A contains information to help you combine Xsan controllers or clients with
ADIC StorNext controllers or clients on the same SAN.
Appendix B describes command-line utilities and configuration files you can use to
manage an Xsan SAN using Terminal.
What’s New in Xsan 1.4
Xsan 1.4 offers these new features and capabilities:
 You can use access control lists (ACLs) to manage user access to Xsan volumes.
 Xsan runs on Intel-based Macintosh computers.
Version Compatibility
The following table shows which versions of Xsan and StorNext controllers and clients
can be used on the same SAN.
Important: If you set up a LUN that is larger than 2 terabytes (TB), be aware that older
clients (those running Xsan on Mac OS X 10.3 Panther or Xsan 1.2 or earlier on
Mac OS X 10.4 Tiger) cannot read these large LUNs. A dialog appears on these older
clients that says the LUN is unreadable. Be sure to click Ignore to dismiss this dialog.
Do not click Format, or information on the corresponding Xsan volume will be lost.
If you use LUNs greater than 2 TB, you should upgrade all SAN clients to Xsan 1.3 or
later on Mac OS X or Mac OS X Server v10.4.
