“Storage management vendor Veritas Software Corp. Monday is
expected to announce plans to launch Linux versions of all its key
products, including its Cluster Server fail-over software.
Cluster Server will be demonstrated at the LinuxWorld show in
New York, which opens on Feb. 2. Other products that will be ported
to Linux include the company’s NetBackup enterprise backup software
and its journaling file system. All products are scheduled to ship
in the second half of 2000.”
“Veritas product manager Marty Ward said the Veritas tools will
work without modifications to the Linux kernel, though not as fast.
Pricing for the Linux software wasn’t disclosed.”
