Very happy with them. -- Dr. Jonathan Diprose <j...@well.ox.ac.uk<mailto:j...@well.ox.ac.uk>> Tel: 01865 287837 Research Computing Manager Henry Wellcome Building for Genomic Medicine Roosevelt Drive, Headington, Oxford OX3 7BN From: Chiu, Peter (STFC,RAL,RALSP) <peter.c...@stfc.ac.uk<mailto:peter.c...@stfc.ac.uk>> Sent: 26 October 2020 14:51 To: xCAT Users Mailing list <xcat-user@lists.sourceforge.net<mailto:xcat-user@lists.sourceforge.net>> Subject: [xcat-user] xCAT On DELL Power Edge C6420 servers - any current users Dear All, We are thinking of adding a DELL Power Edge C6400 server (a 6400 chassis with 4 x C6420 PowerEdge Units each with 2 Intel Xeon Gold 6230 CPUs, 128GB memory and iDRAC Enterprise) to our xCAT cluster in diskless mode. Before investing on this hardware, I wonder if anyone has any experience with this set up and willing to share any watch-outs. Many thanks.
