Hi all, I am sure this has been discussed numerous times on many boards. I
am having trouble getting a solid answer on this though. I have a blade100,
in the closet. I haven't done anything with it since I bought it. I am ready
to break it out again but I do not want to have the same issues. No
resources. The issues are the hard disk limitations. The docs state, support
20GB disks, 2 of them. I am confused on whether this is OB limitation, PROM,
or even Solaris. I know Solaris can address much much more than this. What
is limiting it? I have Sol8 on her now, I will move to 9. What steps can I
take to increase the memory addressing capability? OB update? Any firmware?
What can I do? Also, I see many many blade 100 machines for sale with
200+GB. Does anyone know how, or do you have a config like this? Please
help! Thanks in advance.
