    Hi wanaka,

    This is expected.  Currently no version of GeoSynchrony software supports the UNMAP command.

    Hi wanaka,

    We are looking at adding a compellent to our VPlex/VNX.  Currenlt our SC8000 is not officially supported and I was wondering what compellent hardware you were using and any issues that you had.  Please contact me at danne-murphy@smh.com.  Thanks.

    Hi Garyo,

    any news on when UNMAP will be supported by VPLEX?

    With EMC very aggressive marketing towards xtremio it's starting to be a very important functionality to be developed.

    Thanks.

    Matteo

    Hi Matteo,

    Best information you will get about VPLEX futures will be to setup a NDA roadmap discussion with your EMC account team rep.

    Unmap is on the roadmap, but I can't say or promise when it'll come.

    Thanks,

    Gary

    Hi - sorry, no update that I can share publicly.  Again, contact your EMC rep, they should be able to get you the info you need.

    Thanks,

    Gary
