ok so here it is. we are trying to get a workaround on our XSAN because you can not use the finder Find (apple+ F) on a shared XSAN volume.
so we said hey lets try SMB and guess what you could do a apple + F and search the mounted XSAN volume.. today i come in and folks are yelling that it has 0K!
if i mount the share over SMB and get info it says 558.38 GB Capacity and 0k available..that is totally wrong if i look at it over AFP it’s capacity 4.55 TB Available 3.4 TB Used 1.15 TB
little help!
jwok i figured out the SMB issue.. it is a <2TB little problem SMB has so that is out.
any help on a way to find stuff on a Xsan Volume that would be great!jw
well we wanted to give apple a try in the enterprise area… they are escalating this issue back at Cupertino.. to the engineers. hopefully we will have something.. if not it is back to EMC!
we have 2 Xinet server on sun/solaris, it might be the correct way to go.

i wish EMC would be certified on OS X!! wow that would be cool. lets start the rumor!
if we can not get apple to fix the find (apple + F) then we will return it all and put another tray of disks in our CX500 and share it out to are apple users with Xinet.i really wanted to use the XSAN solution because it will save $$ in the long run. i wish we could wait until 10.5 and spotlight server but production is production and they need it now!
we are kinda toying with the searchlight solution but i am sure that our desktop operators will complain about that as well… i am not about to teach them terminal find or locate…..
if the 2TB SMB issues were not there then that would be the perfect hack/fix.
