Exchange redundancy tested over dual fiber-dual iSCSI

Tested the VMost7 fiber connectivity and redundancy.

Started a large file copy (about 13 Gb) , and unplugged the first fiber connection to the fiber switch, the file copy continued without a glitch.

I then unplugged the second fiber connection on the switch, and the connection seamlessly failed over to the iSCSI connection.

This completed a satisfactory failover test, so at this point, I have given Richard the go-head to move the Exchange database to the SAN.
