Hi,

Thanks all of you for your nice comments, In my network I have X4140
machines and to use RHEL 5. I think it is the best option I have? And deploy
the server locally.



Best regards,

Craig,

What would be the hardware recommendation if the majority of the Sun
Rays were deployed over the WAN where compression would most likely be
enabled and was configured exclusively with SRWC?  And do they offer
that in a blade configuration?

Also, could you possibly turn off auto compression in the new version of
the firmware in order to possibly take advantage of a WAN scaler like
Expand Networks that offers compression/acceleration on UDP based
protocols like ALP?

Our official recommendation @ Sun is T2000's ONLY if you
1) Use Kiosk Mode where the heavy lifting is done by another tier
2) Said Kiosk Apps are SPARC based (i.e. for the longest time only the 
Citrix Client for Solaris was SPARC based)
3) LAN deployments only (so compression does not get invoked)

Running desktop apps directly at the Sun Ray Server tier, especially 
those with floating point calculations, over a WAN is the proverbially 
kiss of death when it comes to performance.

T2000 was designed as a server to take advantage of multithreaded 
"server" applications.  When you look at choices for a Sun Ray Server, 
you want what makes a good desktop.  Because essentially, that's what it
is.
