Overview: This paper published by Hewlett-Packard discusses deploying boot from SAN (BFS) Microsoft Exchange clusters to find out the advantages of an Exchange cluster consisting of HP ProLiant BladeSystems, boot from SAN-based system disks, deployed using HP ProLiant Essentials Rapid Deployment Pack (RDP) software, and further uses of RDP as a backup and recovery mechanism for BFS disks. Booting from SAN-based system disks, rather than from local system disks, affords organizations many advantages, which include minimizing hardware costs, maximizing management benefits, and consolidation.
