Subject: [THIN] How many servers?

 

Hello,

 

Currently I am running 17 Win NT TSE servers w/2GB or RAM; these servers will 
go to their knees when they get to the 40 user count.

 

I have been told to get us NEW servers so we all finally agreed to purchase 
ProLiant BL20p G2 X3.06-512 Dual Processor Blade servers with 4GB of RAM.

 

I am going through a brainstorm here trying to figure out how many servers to 
ask for...

 

The average user takes up form 24MB to 45MB of RAM per session; and we would 
like to be able to always have an off-line server or at least if one fails to 
not decrease the users performance.  So far I have counted 1 server for CSG & 
NFuse, 1 server for STA, and 7 MetaFrame XP Win 2003 servers.

 

Does this seem like a good amount?
