I wouldn't go further than applying any official updates: your vendor thinks
it should work.

I don't think you're doing a lot of I/O - I recall an Amdahl box clocking 600
pages/sec in the early 80s, and all seemed fine. But then, I'm woefully
ignorant of recent hardware.

IBM's roadshow came to Perth today;-) I didn't get to see a zedBox, but they
assured me a box they did have could have had a Zed in it. There was an ATL
I'm sure I could sit at the end of my desk (I have a concrete floor) and
which uses 200 Mbyte tapes. Has umpteen petabytes of capacity.

The talk about storage virtualisation was interesting: it outlined where IBM's
going after SAN.

And there was a presentation on Linux Virtual Servers: mostly Zeds, VM &
Linux, but coming to IA32 with vmware by year's end.
