My sister sent me an interesting article last month that said the average home computer used around $50 a month in electricity when on 24X7. This article was stating the same reasons about conserving power. I agree we should all do our part, but I told her the article was wrong. And the reason I knew was that I have one computer at home that is on 24X7 for remote access when I am not there. I also have a second computer that is on only part time, and is a backup to the first. My electric bill in march was $26 and change and May's was $28 and change. That is the entire electric bill for my apartment. So you can see how I dispute all the findings. However I do have power conservation turned on both computers. They do aggressively power down monitors and even hard drives when not in use.

RE: Cluster, virtual servers, or traditional?
This is something we did last year and are still implementing. We ended up getting an iSCSI SAN and I currently have a two node cluster that is also hosting MS virtual servers with all the data sitting in the SAN. This worked for us as we also needed to replace quite a bit of our hardware and I was able to shut down quite a few older servers and move them onto two new clustered servers. Clustering is included with the Enterprise and above version of server 2003/2008, but you would need to purchase two server licenses. Clustering requires some type of shared storage. Russ Clark From: Mike Semon [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Sent: Wednesday, March 26, 2008 8:31 AM To: NT System Admin Issues Subject: RE: Cluster, virtual servers, or traditional? You might look at iSCSI or NAS solutions for storage if you do not need the performance of a Fibre Channel SAN. There is a big cost saving and in the right environment they work great. Virtualization such as VMware will be of benefit if you want to consolidate servers. If you have a bunch of servers that run at 10-15 % utilization then it makes sense to virtualize them. Also easy to deploy new servers from templates which saves lots of time. If you have small number of servers which have heavy utilization then stick with traditional hardware. Mike From: Tom Miller [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Sent: Wednesday, March 26, 2008 8:05 AM To: NT System Admin Issues Subject: Cluster, virtual servers, or traditional? Hi Folks: Over the next year I'll be replacing/moving around most of my servers here at HQ. Currently I have traditional hardware servers. I'm wondering at what point to I need to move, if at all, to clustering/SAN/virtual servers. At my regional sites (all 50 staff or less) the model will remain a traditional server hardware. However here at HQ (6 buildings) I am not so sure. I have about 400 staff members here using several servers for e-mail and file and print, as well as the typical variety of utility, web, and so on servers. None of the servers consume a huge amount of disk space for files or for e-mail (fairly stringent disk space quotas for e-mail). Suggestions? I'll be moving to Windows 2008, and I thought I read that you can cluster 2 servers without additional licenses. I'm not sure about SANs, since that my be overkill here, and I haven't done anything with virtualization yet (other than desktop). Reliability is important, but so is cost. Being a non-profit, I don't have lots of funds for extra hardware unless I can justify it. Comments and suggestions appreciated.
