sunray vs. jumpstarts, and working with SS20s...

This is not a technical question - know it can be done. It's more of a
'is it worth the effort quesiton'.

1) Is it too much trouble to put a SunRay server and JumpStart server on
the same host? Or will they conflict with setup/config in some way. And/or
is it just easier to put both on different computers (we have plenty of
hosts lying around). It's more of a theoretical question, then a technical
one. Don't want to get into one of those 'install this, then that, then
change that, then tweak that' sort of config.

2) Do SS20s do ok with JumpStart 2.8 servers? Officially, 2.8 is 4u only
(correct?), and we've had no issues with 2.8 on SS20s, but haven't had a
need to do SS20s with JumpStart 2.8.

3) Has anyone set up multiple OSs on the same JumpStart server? It would
be good to be able to re-stage to different OSes, but is it 'easier' to
just have multiple servers?

Again - we know it can be done, it's more of a 'too much trouble to do
with so many hosts lying around' kind of thing...

Will summarize.

Thanks!

Steve B.
