Assuming that the application servers can coexist in the "only" 16GB available on a thumper, and the "only" 8GHz of CPU core speed, and the fact that the System controller is a massive single point of failure for both the applications and the storage. You may have a difference of opinion as to what a large organization is, but the reality is that the thumper series is good for some things in a large enterprise, and not good for some things. --Joe _______________________________________________ zfs-discuss mailing list zfs-discuss@opensolaris.org http://mail.opensolaris.org/mailman/listinfo/zfs-discuss
