nessus threads out like mad on my boxes. My educated guess is that it'll work well on that sort of server. I was just thinking I would upgrade mine to the most cores I could come up with. getting a new sun like that might be just the trick

I am trying to decide on a Sun Server (current supported platform here at work) to run Nessus on. Will be running Solaris 10 aswell. Whats the consensus on something like their T2000 server? Its a single proc, 8 core, 32 Threads server. Will nessus thread nicely on that? I know its only single proc but its 8 cores, each core has 4 threads so in effect its almost like having 32 single thread procs. Should I be looking for multiple processors more than multiple threads per core/proc ? Sun offers a bit of both. What kinds of hardware are people running Nessus on? I am looking to scan a very large environment, generally from a central location that has full visibility to everywhere in the network. -- Zate _______________________________________________ Nessus mailing list [email protected] http://mail.nessus.org/mailman/listinfo/nessus
