I wanted to see if UCS would really reduce cables - but security wouldn't let me get there. Perhaps they don't trust me!!! :-D Yeah, I went to have a look around the back.

BOTH of my labs were ruined because apparently someone put everything on 1 LUN. At least that's what I heard. It might LOOK cool, but whoever designed the storage around it screwed up royally.

Very green IT I see... You know you can virtualise that stuff allowing multiple VMs on a single hardware box (up to ratios from 1:1 to over 100:1). That way you don't need all that valuable floorspace and save the environment using less cooling and less power. Just my 2 cents... Wauw, that’s quite a lot of hardware!
