I know what is SAN. I wrote 'SAN or NFS' since you also mentioned both
solutions as posibility. Anyhow, SAN does not mean data mirroring (you can
have things like JBOD or RAID-0 on SAN too, but not common
configuration). Accessibility through multiple paths is optional
feature that adds to
complexity and costs additional $$$.
Typing this, what does this have with the topic of using Cyrus? It's the
storage. Cyrus will work with SAN as happy as it will work with local drives.
