[cisco-voip] UC on UCS storage.....

[Lelio Fulgenzi]

Interesting. 

Is the test run periodically or just on demand? Is there a historical graph available? 

Is the test itself passive with a simple high volume read/write and it comes back with results or is it stress based, ie you punch an IOPS value and it tries to do that much traffic. 

Most importantly, if the test fails, how do they follow up. That's the biggest fear I have.
