I presume that the "VDISK expansion" test is done when the filer is
actively using the LUNS from the vdisk.  If not, we should test and
support on-line VDISK expansion.

Thanks.

Subject: Pantera testing workflows

Pantera workflows=20
=20
Recently the Qualification team was tasked with creating a complete
series of workflows for the testing of the Pantera system. Test
workflows that test the functionality of the Pantera storage array along
with its interoperability with the Bobcat filer. =20

The spreadsheet contains two separate workflows for the testing of the
Pantera array and the Bobcat.  These workflows lists the full testing of
the Pantera array and covers the workflows for the Bobcat testing that
we feel necessary for the testing of the Pantera system.  Sub-sets of
the workflows have been selected for Core and Smoke testing.  Levels of
testing are based on the follow:

		Full testing will be done on all major releases of the
Pantera(Dot Hill) firmware and EverON software.

		Core testing will be done on minor releases of the
Pantera(Dot Hill) firmware and EverON software.

		Smoke testing will be done on patch releases of the
Pantera(Dot Hill) firmware.


We are looking for some feedback on the workflows in the areas on the
Bobcat testing and on this document as well.  A technical review meeting
will be setup on Tuesday 1/9 to discuss changes to the workflows and the
document.

The spreadsheet is located at:
