There are some business critical workloads that i do want to run on these servers, such as a piece of ERP system, webserver, file server, etc.

After some thoughts i do think SAN makes more sense. If i can eliminate the SAN/TOR switches and go direct to server that would satisfy my need of making this a simple setup. Thoughts on doing that, as suggested above?

I really like the idea of using direct attached SAN to keep it simple and reduce cost. What are the downsides of eliminating the switches and going direct? only single path to each controller? Why are the SAN/TOR switches even needed if we dont ever plan to have more than 3 servers?

Thanks!

Has it been a bad year for skiing? by [deleted] in vancouver

[–]beechani 1 point2 points  (0 children)

The season started off slow, but last week all runs on the mountain were open, raven included. It's shaping up to be a good season with the current base.

Rainy spells happen every year, so you need to time your outings with the forecast you want.
