We have just done the process and are buying 40 1655m 's and a few
1650's and 2650s
The 1650 and 2650s are only being used due the need for a HBA for access
to san disk
I think that blades made the boxes around $1-2000 cheaper (aus)
But the real beauty is in the cable management screen keyboard mouse etc
etc

If anyone has spent the time to figure that out, I'd like to see myself.

I am very curious as to how these blade servers stack up from a cost per
concurrent user perspective. We see traditional DL360 dual CPU servers
supporting from 20 to 60 concurrent users (it varies widely due to the
applications mix). Has anyone taken a set of demanding production
applications an figured out how many concurrent users they can get on a
blade? What is the fully burdened cost of the blade compared to a 1U or
2U server?=3D20
Thanks,

By far the most advanced solution which is relevant to Citrix
installations are the products by RLX technologies. The managment
software includes the ability to build and provision servers with point
and click. The provisioning has an internal database of server images
for LINUX and WINDOWS that can be a starting point, then you can build
any number of images you like. RLX is very conservative in announcing
new products and avoids vaporware, but I can tell that in Q1 they will
not only have the most advanced managment capability, but also the
highest performance available. The other brands are a decent start, but
RLX will is at their 4th generation product now.

We are re-architecting our TS environment and are looking at
consolidating TS servers to blades. I was wondering if any of you have
gone this route.
I'm interested in which blade you went with, how many blades you're
using, how many apps and approximately how many users you are serving.
And best of all, do you think it was a good decision to consolidate apps
to the blade server?
Thanks!
