IsilonSD Edge - No updates
Has any information been released around the ongoing support for this product?
The last release is for 8.0.1, you can update to 9 which then breaks the IsilonSD Management Server.
The cluster still runs fine with a broken IsilonSD Management Server (but you can not add more nodes).
It just feels like the product has been abandoned, so keen to hear if anyone has news.

Hi,
Thanks for your question about IsilonSD Edge. It looks like it is abandoned, as all of the versions went to end of life in February and no new version has been released.
Let us know if you have any additional questions.

Thanks, that's a bit of shame as I use it as a testbed before making changes on my physical clusters.
Dell should update or remove some of the support pages as their are still landing pages up, but these contain a lot of broken lists.

@Blattodea , just use Isilon Simulator instead?

Thanks, When I first tried the simulator it was very limited, the IsilonSD is the full OS, you can apply a good amount of disk etc. I will take a look at the simulator again as I have not looked at it for a couple of years.
But I still think Dell should update the IsilonSD pages to talk about EOL rather than just having a bunch of broken links.
