      Desperately trying to push SAN at any cost... https://community.spiceworks.com/topic/2087894-new-san-replacing-an-md3620f-dell-scv3000-vs-nimble

      Sales goon, I think. Let's see what they push at the end of the day.

      With the "Budget is $25k" requirements he has, nothing will get done for what he wants!

      Not reading it, but Scale only cost $25k for a good entry level cluster.

      He needs 16TB usable, with 2TB flash (for some reason) and wants to use SAN's for it.

        Ok, so mid level Scale cluster instead of entry level!

            Well maybe. . . he says "4x 480GB flash" which could be SSD's from which to run the hypervisor (which LOL if true and doesn't make sense) or as array flash (makes the most sense) based on the post.

            So yeah. . . it's up in the air.

              Got a weight training session in after work. Now I'm spinning up VMs via CLI with virt-install.

                All he wants is to promote one or the other of those SAN products.

                    Yeah, he has an "implementation requirement", rather than a technical one.

                          Just took a quick look, and 4 of the 7 GG posts are Spiceworks people posting for another company.

                              Probably a decent reach around at least.

                                      You know that when you do a manual install, it always creates a kickstart file for you in /root, right? Makes it really easy to look at a known good example.

                                        That's what I've been using as a template. First is was griping because said file used vda as the storage devices, rather than sda. Changing vda to sda fixed that, but then there was griping about being able to allocate partitions. At that point my brain was becoming tired. I'll give it another stab when I'm fresh tomorrow, and will probably make a thread about the adventure :D.

                                            One of the great things about it not being 2008 any longer is that we don't really have any need for things like Kickstart any more, either.
