Using ATA Over Ethernet (AoE) On Fedora 10 (Initiator And Target) | HowtoForge - Linux Howtos and Tutorials

falko — Tue, 02 Jun 2009 06:36:00 -0400

This guide explains how you can set up an AoE target and an AoE initiator (client), both running Fedora 10. AoE stands for "ATA over Ethernet" and is a storage area network (SAN) protocol which allows AoE initiators to use storage devices on the (remote) AoE target using normal ethernet cabling. "Remote" in this case means "inside the same LAN" because AoE is not routable outside a LAN (this is a major difference compared to iSCSI). To the AoE initiator, the remote storage looks like a normal, locally-attached hard drive. Tagged by falko under aoe, ata over ethernet, fedora, san,

Using ATA Over Ethernet On Debian Etch | HowtoForge - Linux Howtos and Tutorials

Imagine you have a machine with all of its disk full and another with unused gigabytes, and you do not want to move the data from one to the other. Why not use the second's disk on the first, you could do it with iSCSI, but you can do it with ATA over Ethernet (AoE) as well. It is the second method I will explain in this article. All of this was made with two computers running Debian Etch. Tagged by falko under ata over ethernet, aoe, debian, etch, debian etch, linux,
