Thanks Chris, the content is moved.

The CLARiiON arrays used a variety of base operating systems over the years that were based on the Windows operating systems (embedded). Some were based on XP, some on Window 2003/2008. Flare is a separate program.

There must be an operating system to let CPU, RAM, SCSI bus and disks work together, EMC (or DGC) chose Windows for CLARiiON.

No Problem. Happy to help!

Hi Ankit,

Thanks for your prompt response, got the answer for my question, really it is helpful.

Yes. Read More about FLARE: Clariion - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Rather than just Windows XP, lets just say Custom Windows OS, depending on the FLARE Release on the Storage Unit.

Hi Glen & Roger , thanks for your answers.

I read on some book that the XP OS is used for managing the clarrion and the FLARE OS is the actual data mover that is responsible for the data movements on the DAEs . Is that right?
