Hello All, One of the areas which slows adoption is the lack of detail in some of the documentation. Particularly on how to get started. I propose a series of surveys which will begin to document "acceptable practice" to help new installations get started and to gather the collective wisdom of the sages.
Towards that end, I would like to propose a platform survey. If you wouldn't mind, please reply with the following information and I will collate and create a wiki page. Note: you should supply multiple entries if you have multiple hypervisors. Site: [optional] Platform: [e.g., IBM BladeCenter, Dell servers, etc] Model: [useful to know that the contemplated configuration has been tested] Count: [number of units, e.g., blades, servers, etc.] CPU: [model is best; otherwise manufacturer, sockets/unit, GHz, number of cores/socket, etc.] RAM: [amount of random access memory per unit] Network interfaces: [number and type, e.g., 2 1xGigE] Image count: [number of images using this particular kind of platform] Supported users: [number of users using this particular kind of platform] Deployment status: [e.g., prototype, pilot, production, etc.] Comments: [whatever else you feel we ought to know; what you would do next time, your recommendations, etc.] Mark -- Mark Gardner --
