Diskless Booting
Diskless Clients
Currently, Mt Xia has no diskless clients booting from the NIM Server.
Boot from SAN
The desired configuration is for all Unix servers to boot from SAN disk
Unix Servers shall not contain any internal disk
NIM installation of operating system is performed to SAN attached disk, virtual SAN disk, or logical volume presented as a virtual SAN disk
Requires each Unix server to have multiple HBA's for redundant access to SAN disk
HBA's may be real or virtual
Requires coordination and cooperation between Unix and Storage groups
For assistance with implementing NIM under a Business
Continuity environment in your data centers, please contact
Mt Xia.
