Over the past 20 years
• An evolution of size, not thinking
• More servers and switches than ever
Traditional architectures have multiple points
of management:
• Each blade
• Each chassis
• Each LAN switch in chassis
• Each SAN switch in chassis
• LAN and SAN switches at TOR/EOR

Mgmt Server
Common Server Deployment Architecture
An accidental architecture
• Still a 1980’s PC model
Result: Complexity
• More points of management
• More difficult to maintain policy coherence
• More difficult to secure
• More difficult to scale

• Server identity no longer has to be tied to physical server
hardware
– Profiles provide identity
– Seamless server mobility
– Stateless components
• Boot over network (LAN or SAN)
– Boot order and boot devices are part of the pre-
defined logical server profile
– On-board disks can be used for temp, swap, etc.
• LAN and SAN connectivity
– # of NICs
– # of HBAs
