Anyone have any info on availability of Blade Systems?
The dual power chassis seems nice but I'm concerned about the common ILO bus bar that cuts across all Blades and might stop the whole lot booting if it fails?
Any other views?
Solved! Go to Solution.

Re: High Availability and Blades
Why would you suspect the failing of the ILO bus bar would stop all the blades from booting?
The PXE interface, if you are using this to boot, would generally be used.
If your ILO link on the enhanced backplane failed you would still have functional servers.
You could always go with a standard enclosure that doesn't have a common ILO.

Re: High Availability and Blades
In terms of general reliability I don't see that Blades would be any more reliable than their 1U servers for example. Its the small high speed fans that are the weakest link in these systems even with redundancy its not necessarily the best solution for very high availability environments.
Thanks for your feedback
