MPFS driver for windows 2008 R2 server
Hello
I have installed an ns-120 storage system with MPFS fc licenses.
The EMC integrator people told me 4 months ago that there's no driver for my windows 2008 R2 servers that will work with the MPFS
Do you have any update or forecast regarding that driver ?
Many thanks

Hi,
From the 6.0.40.5 release notes :
MPFS Operating Systems
MPFS now supports Windows 7 clients (x86 and x86_64), Windows 2008 R2 (x86_64 only), CentOS 5.4 (x86 and x86_64), SLES 10 SP3 (x86, x86_64) and SLES 11 (x86 and x86_64 only). CentOS is supported over MPFS-iSCSI only. All other operating systems are supported over Fibre Channel and iSCSI. For Windows 7 and Windows 008 R2, MPFS supports SMB1, SMB2 and SMB2.1 versions of the CIFS protocol.

Its been supported for a couple of months now – I would suggest to check the Powerlink Software downloads section

Hi Oren,
welcome to the forums.
thats still correct - right now MPFS only supports up to Windows 2008 without R2 service pack.
Windows 2008R2 support is on the roadmap - for details about that you need to go through your local EMC contact.
