Hi,
I'm considering moving to the HP 9000/800 platform for our
AFS servers. We currently use 8 HP 9000/7xx's that serve about
30G of AFS file space. I would like to consolidate to possibly
2 800 series servers and 2 750's. I'm looking for recommendations
from people who currently use the 800's. The questions I have
are:
How well do they function as AFS servers?
How much disk space can one accomodate?
Do you use single ended or fast wide SCSI?
What types of disks do you use?
Do you have specific model numbers for the servers and disks?
Is there a better way to go? Sun Sparc5 or Sparc20 for instance?
Any info would be appreciated. Thanks.
