Dear All,

Different between Racks mounted server secially Xeon server) and Hp Blade server
Because we are plan to deploy our DR site, Replication through HP CA software

• In which scenario Rack based server
and Blade server is recommended.
• Difference between Xeon based and
Itenium based server (performance,
reliability etc)
• Common Hardware Issues in blade
servers like chassis problem etc
• How Much SAPS perform by Itenium and
Xeon SAPS and where to find and how to
calculate

Re: Different between Blade and Rack based servers

There exist

rack mounted ( DL320, DL 360 ...etc )
tower versions ( ML330, ML 350 ...etc)

but exist DL/ML 370 :) bot rack and tower

Blades are other option, you need enclosoures to run them ( either c3000 or c7000 ) but it depends all on your plans for deployment.

Question is very wide, so the best is

http://welcome.hp.com/country/us/en/contact_us.html

and prepare list of all options you want to use for your systems ( Platform, Operating system, number of hosts, newtork switches used ( procurve for example ) , etc, etc, )
