We are going to do a similar rollout - using DL-360G2  1.25 GB and mirrored
18 gb drives. The 1U servers are being used for Nfuse, STA and CSG - in
effect using 6U for 6 boxes

We are doing a round robin between two NFuse servers behind BIG-IP.  We
will
be loading Windows 2000 IIS 5.0 on these servers and running only the NFuse
Web pages.  I feel we will have two servers behind BIG-IP giving us a
virtual look of one site.  I feel two NFuse servers will be adequate but I
am not sure how to size them.  I feel that I don't need much power because
the user only uses the IIS servers to authenticate and once the Published
Application is executed the IIS server is no longer in the mix.  Here is
what I feel I need.

                         *                       PE1650, Pentium III-T, 1.4
Ghz, 512K Cache,
Single Processor
                         *           1 GB RAM Memory
                         *           36 GB Hard drive, Raid 1 (2nd 36 GB
Hard Drive)
                         *           1.44MB Floppy and 24X IDE Internal
CD-ROM drive
                         *           Type 2 contract - 4-Hour 7x24 contract

Does this sound reasonable?  If not, what should I change?

Thank You.
Jay
