Migrating From RISC/UNIX: It's Time to Choose Linux [ Source: Novell ]
January 2008- For the past decade and more, RISC/UNIX has established a history of solid reliability in the data center. It characteristically runs mission-critical applications, including back-end databases, and has a standing for good performance, high reliability, proven scalability and dependable security. But these benefits come at a high total cost of ownership (TCO). UNIX generally requires expensive proprietary software and hardware as well as budget-draining annual maintenance costs. These expenses are likely a key factor ...

Linux Enumeration of NICs: Version1.0 [ Source: Dell - Migration Expert Zone ]
January 2008- Linux details of the network interfaces may not side with BIOS and chassis labeling of the Ethernet ports. Linux may not enumerate the network interfaces as expected. System administrators may expect the onboard network ports labeled LOM1, LOM2, etc. on a system to be assigned interface names eth0, eth1, etc. respectively. This would be one possible naming convention for network interfaces; however no industry standards currently exist to ensure such a convention.
