Scenario: The customer is a university with 20,000 students and 3,500 staff. They have been directed
to reduce their overall IT spending for the next 3 years by 30%. A major issue is that most of the
university’s server and storage infrastructure is now over 3 years old and they need to show substantial
return on investment before new hardware can be purchased.
Their environment consists of HP BladeSystems c7000, with sixteen BL6S5c servers, a mixture of
twelve Gl and four G5 servers. The G5 servers are the newest (less than a year old) while the Gl
servers are now more than three years old. Most equipment was installed three years earlier, The
interconnect modules in the C7000 Blade Enclosure for both the Ethernet and fibre connections are
Pass Thru Modules.
The storage is an EVA8000 with 50TB of disk, 30TB of Fibre Channel disk and 20TB of FATA disk.
This too is over 3 years old. Connecting all the fibre
components are two HP MDS9216i SAN Switches,Their entire server base is virtualized using ESX
3.5 utilizing VMware High Availability (HA) and DRS. All of the university’s critical systems run on
the BL685c Gl servers. The university requires a 24 x 7 uptime on all e-Learning systems including
email. The university does not utilize any additional software tools to manage their systems other than
VMware vCentre and HP CommandView.
