Storage
Error 404--Not Found |
From RFC 2068 Hypertext Transfer Protocol -- HTTP/1.1:10.4.5 404 Not FoundThe server has not found anything matching the Request-URI. No indication is given of whether the condition is temporary or permanent. If the server does not wish to make this information available to the client, the status code 403 (Forbidden) can be used instead. The 410 (Gone) status code SHOULD be used if the server knows, through some internally configurable mechanism, that an old resource is permanently unavailable and has no forwarding address. |
Sun axes virtual tape library
Sun, caught in the pique of shifting development, is letting customers know today that its open systems virtual tape library is no more.
The company, which acquired the StorageTek Virtual Storage Manager last summer, is stopping development of a open systems version of its product. VSM presently works only with MVS mainframes.
Sun has said in the past that developing a virtual tape library for open systems is a much harder affair than that of a mainframe-only version.
That, I guess is the reason, other vendors like EMC, Diligent, Sepaton and a bunch of others have open systems tape libraries -- they are too hard to develop. Only Diligent, IBM and Sun have mainframe versions.
When problems occurred with Sun's VSM Open, the company looked at Diligent as an acquisition target, sources say.
