IBM SAN/Storage short links/URLs

This is a list of short URLs shared by me on Twitter over the time. I often use them in my daily work so I thought it would be a good idea to have them here in one place. It would help me, my colleagues and anyone else working with enterprise storage, IBM in particular.

TIP: Often, people distrust these short URLs (a good security practice btw) as they could be hacked or point to malware or other unwanted content. Well, not anymore! There is a service for that and now anyone can use urlex.org to expand it.
