[gpfsug-discuss] GPFS vs Spectrum Scale

[Greg.Lehmann at csiro.au]

Sitting next to 2 DDN guys doing some gridscaler training. Their opinion is "pure FUD".  They are happy for us to run IBM or their Spectrum Scale packages in the DDN hardware. 

Cheers,

Greg

I had a slightly strange discussion with IBM this morning... We typically buy OEM GPFS with out tin. The discussion went along the lines that spectrum scale is different somehow from gpfs via the oem route.

Is this just a marketing thing? Red herring? Or is there something more to this?

Thanks

Simon
