  Subject: [Sunhelp] Sun clustering vs. Veritas

  I'm looking for info comparing Sun clustering software vs. Veritas. =20
  Sun argues theirs is better, Veritas argues the opposite.  =20
  Does anyone have any unbiased information or know where to find a =
decent neutral product comparison?

  This is for a large scale enterprise cluster containing 20 E-6500s.   =
All of the hardware we have is supported
  by both platforms.  Reliability in this scenario is a far greater =
factor than speed.  =20
  Based on past experience, I am personally leaning towards Veritas, and =
am looking for concrete evidence
  that this is the correct or incorrect choice.
   =20
  Thanks in advance,
  Tony Alberti
