if you were starting from scratch maybe, but if you've already invested in
the SAN hardware then perhaps not.

But for Citrix? Really, what is the benefit when compared to the overall
cost to implement? There are alternative technologies out there that can
provide the same benefits for a fraction of the cost.

my understanding is that it was disk cost - the # of spindles needing to be

right, what is he talking about. because if he is talking about the hba's
then that is not specific to booting from the san, but just something that
you will need if you want to use your san at all...?
what is he talking about?

What cost does he associate with boot-from-SAN?

Subject: [THIN] SAN Benefits for Citrix
My organization just installed an EMC SAN and I was thinking how I could use
it to benefit my current (XP FR3) and future (upgrading to PS 4)
environment. How can I use the SAN to enhance my Citrix deployment
(currently 15 servers, 250 concurrent users, hardware become outdated and
soon needs replacement)? I was told by our SAN Admin that booting new
servers from the SAN would probably be cost prohibitive.
