  1. When did Symantec cease to sell VRTS STORAGE FOUNDATION OPTION MICROSOFT CLUSTER 5.1 WIN FOR OS TIER ENTERPRISE EDITION STD LIC as standalone option license and
  2. When MSCS option was included in Standard version of VSFW?
  3. and When MSCS option was moved tom Standard to Enterprise Edition of VSFW?

Any help with the above information with specfic dates will be greatly apprecaited.

    Riaan,

    Thanks for the partial answer.

    Do you have specific dates around these releases?

    Regards,

    Syed

    "With the release of 6.0, the packaging of SFW is somewhat different:

    We have deprecated DMP, FlashSnap and MSCS as separate options.  DMP is now part of the standard release of SFW while the FlashSnap and MSCS components are now simply bundled when you license SFW Enterprise. "
