Storage Networking Protocol Fundamentals (Vol 2)

The quality of this book is directly attributable to the many people that assisted during the writing process. In particular, I would like to thank Mike Blair for his contribution to the SBCCS/ESCON/FICON section, Tom Burgee for his contribution to the optical section, Joel Christner for his contribution to the file-level protocols section, and Alan Conley for his contribution to the management protocols chapter. Additionally, I would like to thank Tuqiang Cao, Mike Frase, and Mark Bakke for their support. A special thank you goes to Tom Nosella, Phil Lowden, and Robert Peglar for serving as technical reviewers. Finally, I am very grateful to Henry White for hiring me at Cisco. Without Henry's confidence in my potential, this book would not have been possible.
