Apple posts Xsan 1.0.1

Apple has posted an update to Xsan (1.0.1), its SAN file system, storage networking solution.

The new release delivers overall improved reliability for Xsan and is recommended for all systems. It delivers improvements for:

• using the 'mv' command to move files from Xsan (ACFS) to Mac OS Extended (HFS ) volumes
• saving files over 4GB via SMB/CIFS to an Xsan volume hosted on Mac OS X Server
• greater server stability when re-sharing Xsan volumes via NFS
• eliminating spontaneous metadata controller failovers that can result in slow file performance
