Hi Pablo, I'm assuming you mean HS23. We have a mix of new IBM HS23's, HS22, HS22v, HS21, old HS20 blades, and a few specialized rack-mount servers in our production environment. We have also successfully tested an IBM PureFlex chassis. I know there are some other implementations using IBM iDataplex, HP, and Dell blades/servers including non-blade rack-mount.
Most of our chassis are 1GB (some are 4x1Gb aggregated) but the newer additions have 10Gb. For these, we have a mix of 10Gbit BNT and Qlogic virtual fabric modules. The 10Gb blades have a mix of Emulex and Qlogic interfaces. I have also worked with organizations using 10Gbit Cisco Nexus equipment. VCL sits a layer or two above the underlying network and storage infrastructure. If you can find a way to get the components to talk to each other and make the storage available to the servers/VM hosts via NFS, iSCSI, etc... then I'm pretty confident it will work. -Andy On Thu, Aug 16, 2012 at 8:14 PM, Pablo J.
