Thanks for coming by! I would love to hear what you guys say about it. We were in very close contact with HP on this one because we had a customer buying a very large number of blades and they had to be able to iSCSI boot multiple OS’s for a test lab. HP was only able to “iBoot” on their blades.

I look forward to hearing more!

That is very interesting as we are talking with HP and a partner and we were led to believe that the blades could boot from iSCSI. I will have to check into this more.

On another note we are just making the jump into blades. We have toured HP's EBC to look them over and talk to the engineers as well we went to Dell last week to look over the new blade line.

Thanks for the blog!
